Thank you, thank you, In the United Kingdom, the government has enacted a law that one has to have a private pension. Private pension based on stock market performance is a way to trap individuals in an exploitative system. To be guaranteed a pension when you retire, you have to accept that corporation has to make excess profits by whatever means necessary. The same principle drives these charitable contributions by corporations. You support a cause, and we will match your donation. It is a cynical way to destroy social welfare. We become dependent on the charitable contributions of companies. They don’t advertise that the money they contribute is tax-deductible from their profits. In the end, you, the individual, pays for the corporate charitable contribution.
