Did we all donate money to HSUS??

Posted by Ed at 9/1/2010 11:16:21 PM

Found an interesting website today:

activistcash.com

It lists many activist, non-profit organizations and the foundations that give them money. These foundations and non-profits seem to be the way for "special interests" to gain power and control, and I hope anyone reading this would feel the need to research this stuff, but since I don't feel like ranting on that right now, I'll just share one tidbit. According the the website, we all donated HALF A MILLION BUCKS (via a US government agency called the U.S. Agency for International Development) to the HSUS in 2005. If you're interested, you can check out what other non-profit, activist agencies recieved money from government agencies:

	Ed, That's fascinating. I'm definitely going to have a look at that. (I've always wondered how much of my tax money payed for Sarah Palin's makeup, but that's beside the point)

	HSUS is another way to spell PeTA. They have excellent marketing skills.

	Given a choice between my money going to HSUS or Sara Palin's makeup/wardrobe, that's a no brainer. :) Julie, the HSUS is just one of many wolves in sheep's clothing. A lot of these non-profits are connected with each other (ie, board members, cronyism, shared celebrity supporters/spokes people, same funding sources, ties to the same gov't agencies, etc.) It's interesting how many of them oppose eating meat, despite the wide variety of misleading names. I guess in Utopia animals don't eat other animals... BTW, speaking of PETA, looks like Bill Maher is a big supporter: http://activistcash.com/biography.cfm/b/1360-bill-maher
