    I have known people …
    I have known people who went broke giving to charity and ended up becoming burdens to their family and friends. Everyone gives to charity each and every day. It’s called taxes which also provide social programs, welfare, medicaid, social security, disability, food banks, jobs, etc. It’s ludicrous to tell people who don’t have much or who are starting out to give their money away, they should be saving it so they won’t become a burden to society down the road. Bad advise if you ask me.

    Absolutely right. …
    Absolutely right. The wealthy pay the majorioty of taxes, not the poor or the middle class. Also the wealthy provide most of the jobs. Anyone who blames wealthy people is just jealous of them. I have to see one middle class or poor person refuse a lottery win.

    you also missed his point, you both have good points.

    you are saying that 10 from a poor = 10,000 to the rich. this is true for the live of the giver.

    but to the life of the receiver from the charity, $10 will not be needed nearly as much as the $10,000.

    i find your post to be ignorant.
    Bill Gates is excessively wealthy, he did not steal any money, it is not his responsibility to fix the economy.
    in your post you make it seem like the middle class works and perseveres harder than the upper class.
    you are very wrong.
    you know who works on christmas? not the middle class.
    most upper class jobs require tons of work and school, which cause debts which they have to pay off, ceos work for their job, and take great risks of going bankrupt.
    ignorance.

    THE GREEDY CEOS AND EXCESSIVELY WEALTHY MUST BE THE ONES TO REPLENISH THE ECONOMY AND PUT THAT MONEY BACK WITH THE AMERICAN MAJORITY OF WORKING CLASS THEY STOLE IT AND THEY MUST GIVE IT BACK THE RICH CANNOT LIVE HIGH ON HOG WITH THE BLOOD, SWEAT, SKILLS AND TALENTS, INTEGRITY AND TRUST OF THE MAJORITY AND AT THE MAJORITIES EXPENSE.
    By receiving much you impoverish yourself. By selfish accumulation you become bankrupt. As Emerson says, You run in your own debt.

    Once again you miss the point she was saying that a poor person donating $10 is the same as a rich person donating $10 million dollars… She wasn’t saying that a rich person should donate the same as a less wealthy person.

    Suzie talk to the corrupt CEOs and the corrupt government how to not only give back to the majority of Americans but teach them how to put people first and money second, and things third. Talk about values to the monolopoly corporations. The government should not bail out these companies. These people need to be accountable for their actions. talk to them.

    Are people really so stupid that they think this woman is sharing wisdom here? She’s a master at using a lot of words and over the top gestures to say absolutely nothing.

    “Your values will escalate with how you feel about yourself…” WTF? Values escalate?

    This makes a living talking nonsense to people who need to be told what to do.
