I don't think we should have to. If people claim to be conscientious enough to care about what the effects the GST cuts will have on social spending' date=' should they not be able to donate that money themselves? Sorry, but without pointing fingers as I really don't know, it just reeks of hypocrisy to me. If you want to make a difference, friggin' make a difference. Why rely on some government entity, which considering the volatility of the economy may not be a sure shot, to do the work for you? [/quote'] Sorry, I thought phorbesie had offered to set up a fund. My bad.
