Not everyone can write a big check to their favorite donation foundation, but everyone should give something to someone that is worst off than they are themselves.

Think what those millions of dollars could do for us. Along with the millions of hands of the middle and lower class citizens in America, we could get this country running smoothly again again. As well as set an example for other countries. Humanity as a whole needs to move forward and put their money towards the bigger, better, and more important things. Things like starvation and illiteracy should be illuminated everywhere, but we need to start here.

Some people suffer for this reason, others; like Bill Gates for example, have made money their trademark. Those are the people that have already made it to the next step, and because of that their children and many future generations to come will benefit greatly. That's obvious; but what isn't so obvious is how beneficial it would be to team up as fellow Americans and try to help bring our society as a whole up a couple of steps, and set an example doing it.
