You are full of shit. They write more off on their taxes. That means we have less to pay off the national debt with. Say you give to charity and I give yo charity , yet I do not take the deduction, I just give, You then are having others pay for your charityn..

The concept goes: Man A wants the window open and man B wants it closed. Seems like there's only two options until you find out from each one what their end goal is. Man A would like the fresh air and Man B would like the breeze to NOT blow all his papers off the desk...Like Man WTF throws a rock through the glass of that window, opening the window for Man A and providing a paper weight for Man B?
OK so how do we meet both requirements outside the cut and dried two choices..... How bout some curtains, so you still get the fresh air but not the destructive breeze. Or move the desk perhaps. We don't have to be so strict with the options. There's always a 3rd alternative. Originally Posted by LovingKayla

They stopped at an inn in New Brunswick, New Jersey for the evening. Not only sharing the same room, but sharing the same bed, Franklin and Adams got into a furious argument.

His personal charm was what got the French to finance the Revolutionary War.
The argument was not about politics, but something more important to them at the time--whether the window in the room should be open or closed. Adams wanted it closed for fear of catching a cold. Franklin wanted the window kept open, so he could breathe the healthy fresh air.
As Franklin argued about his arduously, Adams fell asleep. The window was left open.

YOU WOULD BE DOUBLE DIPPING YOUR OWN FUCKING SELF. I'VE HEARD LIBERALS SAY SOME DUMB SHIT AND THIS IS RIGHT UP THERE WITH THE DUMBEST.
I'm tired of that lie about ya'll giving more.
If you just gave the money and then did not write it off on your taxes, that would actually be giving. Paying less on your taxes because you gave to charity is actually having others have to pay more to make up the difference!
