    (Edit – the removed comment was roughly “why give any care to poor people that create no jobs and take away money from banks and grocery store owners?”)

    Funny you should mention grocery stores:

    https://www.statista.com/statistics/481019/leading-grocery-retailers-by-market-share-canada/

    When one dynasty (the Weston family) owns nearly a 3rd of the entire grocery market, steal from people by fixing the price of bread, driving independent retailers and smaller suppliers out of business through exploitative supply agreements?

    Yes I would like to take a big chunk of money from these hoarders.

        Edit – the removed question was roughly: “how much of your personal cash do you give away to help people?”

        original response

        My budget for charity (including donations to aid groups, charities, political groups, giving cash and food directly to the homeless, donations to FOSS projects) is between 1-2% of my take home pay. I’m not religious, but when good fortune happens to me, I obligate myself to pay it forward to others in thanks.

        What’s your point in asking this?
