My Personal Charitable Giving Is Down

TaxProf points out that charitable giving dropped last year:

Giving USA Foundation and the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University today announced today that charitable contributions fell 3.6% (3.2% inflation-adjusted) in 2009, to $303.75 billion.

Personally speaking, my charitable contributions have dropped slightly (although not 3.6%, probably) as I have redirected small checks from charitable organizations to Republican candidates and the RNC and its committees.

Because if I’m going to have any to spare for donations in the future, the government is going to have to change.
