Salaries of Charity CEO's ... Thx Paul C! Seem eerily similar to our supposed political representatives in America

A timely reminder before the Holidays and our generous spirits open up our wallets…   How many ways can you spell G R E E D?   

THINK BEFORE YOU DONATE! SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE YOU MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS:   As you open your pockets to do a good thing and make yourself feel good, please keep the following facts in mind: The American Red Cross President and CEO Marsha J. Evans' salary for the year was $651,957 plus expenses MARCH OF DIMES It is called the March of Dimes because only a dime for every 1 dollar is given to the needy. The United Way President Brian Gallagher receives a $375,000 base salary along with numerous expense benefits. UNICEF CEO Caryl M. Stern receives $1,200,000 per year (100k per month) plus all expenses including a ROLLS ROYCE. Less than 5 cents of your donated dollar goes to the cause. GOODWILL  CEO and owner Mark Curran profits $2.3 million a year. Goodwill is a very catchy name for his business. You donate to his business and then he sells the items for PROFIT. He pays nothing for his products and pays his workers minimum wage! Nice Guy. $0.00 goes to help anyone!  Stop giving to this man. Instead, give it to ANY OF THE FOLLOWING GO "GREEN" AND PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE IT WILL DO SOME GOOD: The Salvation Army Commissioner, Todd Bassett receives a small salary of only $13,000 per year(plus housing) for managing this $2 billion dollar organization. 96 percent of donated dollars go to the cause.

This is a rather short video that we all should watch, appreciate and fully understand its meaning.  It is also one that everyone in our current government should be forced to watch several times, at least until they get it!!!  If you are one of those that do not forward e-mails, please make this an exception and pass this along to everyone in your address book.

Service people fought for our freedoms and unthinking voters are letting freedoms go ... Thx Paul C!

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...

It's about learning to dance in the rain.

I totally agree with the whole text in this email, and Yes I stand UP...and will pass this message along

.

My Grandfather watched as his friends died in WW I...

My Father watched as his friends died in WW II and Korea ...

I watched as my friends died in Vietnam ...

None of them died for the Mexican Flag...

Everyone died for the U.S. Flag...

In Texas, a student raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole; another student took it down.

Guess who was expelled... The kid who took it down.

Kids in high school in California were sent home this year on Cinco de Mayo because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.

Enough is enough.

The below e-mail message needs to be viewed by every American;

And every American needs to stand up for America. We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough...I'm taking a stand...

I'm standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the U.S. Flag can't stand up...

And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message...Let me make this perfectly clear!

THIS IS MY COUNTRY! And, because I make This statement DOES NOT Mean I'm against immigration!!! YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY!Welcome!

To come through legally:

1. Get a sponsor!

2. Get a place to lay your head!

3.Get a job!

4.Live By OUR Rules!

5.Pay YOUR Taxes!And

6.Learn the LANGUAGE like immigrants

Have in the past!!

7.Please don't demand that we hand over our lifetime Savings of Social Security Funds to you.

If you don't want to forward this for fear of offending someone, Then YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM!

When will AMERICANS STOP giving away THEIR RIGHTS???

We've gone so far the other way... Bent over backwards not to offend anyone...

But it seems no one cares about the

AMERICAN CITIZEN being offended!

WAKE UP America !!!If You agree...

Pass this on...

If You don't agree...

Then Just Delete It -

But Shame On You!!!!

God Bless!
