They're cashing in on people's emotions
Cancer is awful, and most people have been affected by it, or know someone who has been affected by it.
These fraudulent "charities" are using people's raw emotions to enrich themselves. Actually finding a cure ends their gravy train, so they have no desire for a cure to actually be found.
these people are actually this retarded
Even if you give them the benefit of the doubt that they're trying to be a force for good and they're facing hard times. Their argument is basically, "fund us or there will be another pandemic." How did they do with the last pandemic? So much economic damage, relationship damage, health damage, mental health damage, etc. occurred. And COVID has not been contained since 2019. Now it's just another disease that goes around like the flu.
I'm pretty sure if the WHO did absolutely nothing to prevent the spread of COVID, we'd be exactly where we are today. So we gain no benefit from funding them at all. So why fund them now?
They don't know everything. They don't know if you changed marital status, if you had a baby, if you gave money to charity, if you purchased energy-efficient upgrades for your home, etc. All of these things can affect how much taxes you would owe.
What they do know is what gets sent to them from W2s, 1099s, 1098s, and a bunch of other forms, but it's not the whole picture.
You're thinking about this the wrong way.
Inflation is the rate of shrinkage of the buying power of the dollar. The Federal Reserve's goal is to get 2-3% shrinkage every year. So what costs $100 last year will cost about $103 this year. They achieve this by printing new dollars out of thin air, which is called counterfeiting if anyone besides the central bank does it.
To reduce inflation would be to bring that rate of shrinkage to zero. That means stopping the creation of dollars out of thin air. But the thing that now costs $103 this year will still cost $103 next year, and the year after, and so on so long as inflation is 0%.
To go backwards is called deflation. That's where the rate of inflation goes negative. So with a negative 3% rate of inflation (or a 3% rate of deflation), what cost $100 last year would cost $97 this year. You can keep doing this to get things to cost less and less in terms of dollars. But to achieve this you have to get someone to burn a lot dollars, and no one wants to do that, not even the government. If you have a sustained period of deflation, then the penny becomes relevant again.
Deflation also incentives people to hoard money. That's very harmful to the economy, because it reduces economic activity. So it leads to massive layoffs and a ton of other bad things.
Men are supposed to be the leaders and defenders of the family
This is God's design for the family. Through sin, many men fall short. There is redemption and restoration through Jesus Christ. We must turn toward Jesus.
Health insurance is tied to employment because of Congress.
During WWII Congress prohibited employers from raising salaries, you know, to support the war effort. So employers started offering more benefits instead of salary increases, including medical insurance.
Now it's enshrined in the tax code.
