天下没有免费的礼物，盖持基金与慈善的代价

No Such Thing as a Free Gift  (Book)

Linsey McGoey

 

 

Nearly half of the 75,000 private foundations in the United States were created in the past 10 years. About 5,000 more US philanthropic foundations are set up each year. The amount of money placed in philanthropic trusts helps to make the charitable sector one of the fastest growing industries in the global economy. Linsey McGoey looks at this new golden age of philanthropy, in particular, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and asks: is this money doing much good? Large charitable organizations are replacing government as the providers of social welfare while their businesses often support economic instability and compound global inequalities. The new generation of mega-donors see that there is good business in charity and ignore the division between good deeds and profits. Are we losing the idea of social justice in the face of market-based philanthropy?

• 富豪们把税交了再做慈善比较好。在美国挣的钱交美国税理所应当。普通百姓不同，善款应该免税，因为他们对捐出的钱不再控制。 -skyport- ♂ (0 bytes) () 12/05/2015 postreply 20:23:27
