How Can They Stomach This?

It's nice to help.
There's nothing wrong when you extend help to your community.
It is a Christian thing to do.

But...
Is it still a Christian thing to do when you help, and you expect something in return?
Is it still virtuous to use the cloak of charity as means to evade your social responsibility of paying your taxes?

I think not.

How can some people make better profits out of the misery of others?
How can some people use other people's time, those who genuinely wanted to help?
How can a good gesture be good when it is rooted on an evil thought?

Money can't buy happiness.
Money can't be brought to our graves.
Money can't buy you a place in the afterlife.
