| I heard a radio program where a man from a university in Virginia told about his research. He'd found that conservatives gave a much larger percentage of their income to charity than liberals. This was especially true of church-going social conservatives if I remember correctly. Ironically, conservatives giving more included giving to environmental charities.If you listen to left-wingers, some of them act like conservatives are heartless and do not want to give to the poor because they do not want to do so through taxes and social programs. Conservatives tend to think these things should be handled through charities, and seem to be acting out their philosophy. I wish I remembered the details. It would be good to have access to the stats and the quotes |
