I guess we get confused in thinking someone who is financially very successful must have some sort of higher personal values than, say a common criminal. That just isn't the case.

Thinking of a time I got a little stuck in the snow. Before I could get out to get loose one of those homeless looking people appeared and broke my car free. I don't think he did it for money, as if you'd seen my car back then, no one would think I had anything. (And I didn't) That was charity from someone who could do very little but still did what he could.

Hearing the history of Bob Perry on this board, I feel confident he wouldn't piss on someone who was on fire, unless he was going to make a buck for it. He's the ideal Republic philanthropist, who would never GIVE anyone anything unless it was self serving. Still they call it donations, and philanthropy. But that's only to those people who don't get tripped up on the trial of victims his money creates.
