Funding cuts to charity particularly felt over Xmas - Lilith7 - 21-12-2024

Although, from a govt which has already reduced the cost & quality of school lunches, reduced benefits, cut school bus service in some rural areas, cut support for foodbanks & doles out tax breaks to those doing very nicely thank you, cut the health budget & not bothered to employ half graduating nurses, fired over 9000 public servants & frozen social housing projects, we can hardly have expected them to suddenly exhibit their spirit of Xmas & goodwill to all, especially since its abundantly clear that they appear to be entirely lacking in that particular department... Sad Dodgy

They don't seem to get it, as a Government you feed money in at the bottom and the whole country has a go at getting it out at the top, one way or another.

That the nature of the game.

No money in means no money out, and recession or worse.

A fraction of the profits that the so called charity called sanitarium makes would be able to fund all the school lunches nationwide, except it directly funds a cult called the seventh-day Adventists.

Definitely agree; they really shouldn't be legally able to run a  business but claim to be a charity simply because they happen to be a particular religion.
