Reply #23: When You Itemize, You Itemize It All [View All]

"Cash" is a loose term for any money donated directly...and is tax deductable. Many wealthy can whittle their taxes down to zero with the proper deductions along with donations. A good tax accountant is worth thousands as they know how to bury the money or find ways deductions to offset earnings.

I write checks to many non-profit organizations...and, yes, I write them off. Even if I couldn't I'd still donate the same amounts I do to the organizations I support.

Of course the "rich" donate more...they have more to donate and more incentive to do so. Also, many "wage slaves" can make a donation through payroll...I did it to the United Way for many years...and I'm sure that isn't taken account in Mr. Stasshole's propaganda.
