I am being slightly facecious.
The idea is to reward people for investing their money in things that will help communities -- becuase the government doesn't really have a clue how to spend tax money wisely.
The idea is that some people make better decisions than the government about where money should go.
So it's a provision for people to do that. If you think the government organisations aren't funding the right things in this, that, or the other respect then you could donate to whatever charity to provide those services.
I'm being facecious because people have managed to... Misuse... Those funds every bit as badly as the government does.
But that doesn't mean the potential for a good use of it isn't there.
I haven't started dreading christmas yet. But I will do, soon. It's on my list. I try and wait until more around thanksgiving for that.
