If your name is clinton, it's not.

Not different for from people who work for charity and take their salary out of people's money.
It's your own fault if you give money to these swindlers.

The ones that approach you on the street about some organisation or charity and ask for money for it, then they end up pocketing some of the money

Provide a separate set of economics for charity people to exist without the need of money and you will have any controversy solved.
Otherwise, nothing wrong with it as long as they are not hassling you for the money.

Pocket SOME of the money? Bro, they are pocketing ALL of the money.

“Would you like to donate 1 dollar to help a child in need?”

If I want to donate to a charity, I'll donate to it directly. I'm not giving my money to some random person on the street claiming to be part of whatever charity or cause.

If it pays for a bullet to end his misery.

The complaint against them would be they're GRIFTERS! and PUBLIC SOLICITORS. People complain because they don't take it to a PRIVATE business front with terms and WAIT for INTERESTED people to come to them just like EVERY OTHER RESPECTABLE business, which does INCLUDE charities, because they keep it PRIVATE at a front and on the books. Charities may not be the most reputable nor agreeable they're not grifters, they keep it private and proper.

ALSO, why is the STEAM text check so AWFUL? Did a troll hack it?
