They donate not because of the goodness in their heart, but because they get tax cuts from it.

Furthermore, what does donation really accomplish when:

  1. People are still suffering, regardless of how many charities there are and how much money they get;

  2. Those wealthy donors are the reason people continue poor since they are only wealthy by exploiting other people's work.

Charities shouldn't need to exist in the first place.
