Leftists think charity is raising your tax rates

Beto has released his tax returns and it turns out he's very wealthy and doesn't give much to charity.

In 2017 Beto and his wife made $370,412 and gave $1,166, 0.3%, to charity.

But Beto is saying that Christians who tithe, give 10% of their incomes, to charity are greedy if they don't support massive tax increases.

This is one more example of the adage that "A Leftists is someone who wants to be philanthropic with other people's money".

Also given that Beto is in the top 2% of Americans in terms of yearly income and that Bernie is a millionaire the whole leftist call for attacking the rich seems to lack a bit of credibility.

Especially since on the Fox News Town Hall with Bernie he said that he didn't pay what he calls his "fair share" in taxes.  Instead Bernie only paid what he had to.  Which seems odd in that he and other Democrats are condemning the rich in America in general for what they themselves do; namely pay the taxes that they owe.
