I've yet to dig into the administration's new budget but based on the blogs and cable chatter the first talking point seems to be the material change in the tax write offs for charitable contributions. Administration opposition seems ready to make hay claiming that Obama just has single handedly driven charitable contributions off a cliff!
While this blog has nowhere the influence of MSNBC, Atlantic or Fox News I would hope my readers would ask themselves this question:
Am I going to give less to my church, synagogue, Red Cross, women's shelter or cancer foundation simply because I can't write off as much?
And if I am what does it say about me that I only give to charity to decrease my taxes???
