There already is a government charity fund. It's called the IRS, here in the U.S. And everyone is free to give more than what is required of them when they file their income tax return each year.

OK now i am in Complete SHOCK i had thought i had heard of everything.
would i actually trust any goverment to do the right thing with donated monies.
look what they do with the money they just take from people in the form of tax.
they waste money on a colossal scale and someone out there actually thinks it might be a good idea to give out more money via donation.
hmmmm maybe we should donate to the banks since they use our savings to put us into a global crisis.
maybe we should donate to the DOD so they too can go out and kill more people on our behalf.
maybe we should just give all our money to the Wto then they could buy up countries and save time in taking over the world.
you know that the same goverments you want to donate too bailed out the banks and then the banks went on a repossesion rampage and threw many many hard working individuals out of the very homes that they worked so hard to pay for.
rather than saying you know it might be a good idea to give people longer terms or give them breaks and when things got better we could then start to keep them in their homes.
oh well.....i think i will go out today and empty my accounts and go give the money to my local politician...
there i feel so much better....it is so nice living on the streets.
