McLaughlin: Conservative states give more to charity than Liberals...
Advertisements [?]
On McLaughlin's show this morning, he provided a list of the states who donated the most to charity. Top three states were all conservative.........

I think they figure this out by the salaries of individuals and the percentage that they give.......?????????

Isn't that an unfair way to measure? There are fewer people in those states than in the mostly coastal liberal states.? Damn, I don't know what I am trying to say here, except that I got the feeling that the result was based on an unfair means of measuring.

Besides, MANY of those folks down there are on public assistance, so how CAN they give more?

(Mathematical logic was my very WORST subject all through school)
