This is going in circles and I have to go home soon (something running in the background is near finished), so I'll just add this:
State, on the other hand, in its eternal wisdom will channel the money to public health care so that the poor deaf & blind cancer kids can get the treatment they need so much. After all, the state are we, the people. Plus, since it comes from taxes, even the filthy rich would finally have to participate, without making a big spectacle of it.
GameRager: 5. I think it'd be nice if the companies gave games out(possibly when they reached a certain age since release) to people who couldn't afford them......but they won't, now will they? And yeah it'd be nice if the gov't did that, but I A: Still think the companies should do it, & B: Think it would sadly never fly with the taxpayer...or at least some of them.
That is soooo American, thinking that it should be up to wealthy benevolent individuals and big corporations to decide what and how they want to support, to polish their public image. That way they end up giving money to charities, or rather lobby groups, like "Guidance against pre-marital sex and contraception" and "Children's Right to Learn about Intelligent Design at Schools"-movements, whatever happen to be the most vocal "charities" at the time.
