Mark,
this is not an unfriendly conversation, and not something that would
stand out as inconvenient for me. I agree the USA has lots of charity.
But I'd like to point out that in the US, total tax revenue is 27% of
GDP. In Finland, it's 44 %. Although giving 5 % of money to charity is
good, it doesn't necessarily even a 17 % difference in tax revenue as
percentage of GDP. I do not expect to ever be hard up for money to
survive, but I'll remember what you said in case I will be.

OK Tuukka, just let me know when you are hard up for money to survive.
I prefer to donate to local causes where I can actually participate.
Much of my money goes to local autistic communities, at present, since
that is where there is need. I also volunteer. I believe in
investing in our children right here at home. This is a community
spirite that is gone from the big cities, which are dependent on
government hand outs.
However I always consider giving more abroad to kind people in need.
