which has no involvement with any taxpayer money.What do you mean no involvement?
Karen Collier Linden Hills
I would be willing to bet that this individual will deduct this entire amount from his taxes as a charitable contribution. Which means that the rest of us taxpayers must pay MORE to make up for this deduction, and to try to cover the massive Bush deficit.
I'd sure call that an involvement of taxpayer money!
People need to remember that whenever they see something like this, "funded by charitable contributions", what they are seeing is rich people shuffling money that they would otherwise have paid in taxes into their favorite pet charity. And a back-door undercutting of any public debate on who should get this money.
