Awesome. Counties should give out medals for people who run counter to humanity's natural tendancy toward self-righteousness and entitlement. Why cant these people run for office?

The have common sense not to .

Why don't they donate it to the probably many charities around?
...And why did they toss out FAKE money?
BeaverFever @ Sat Oct 24, 2009 10:16 pm
because they want to change the Matix, not just donate to its victims

I'll pretend that made any sense.
So they want to change the system? Fine. But even their example on their rally, tossing out FAKE money just shows they're full of shit. They couldn't give a crap about the poor or the people, or they would of done the work themselves. They're the ones who probably would benefit more over a larger bureaucracy.

Well, if they donated to charity, it would be tax detuctable. Now it is not.
I think they are less full of shit than you say...

Meanwhile in England the MPs are complaining that they might have to pay back over the top expenses claims they've made. As much as it pains me to say it.........the Germans are doing something right.

If would be tax deductible...IF they actually wanted to deduct it from their taxes. I don't believe the process is automatic in Germany, is it? If you don't report a donation on your income tax, then you don't have to pay it.
Once again, they sound full of shit. But that's just my opinion.
Just read this portion
$1:
The group held a demonstration in Berlin on Wednesday to draw attention to their plans, throwing fake banknotes into the air.
Mr Vollmer said it was "really strange that so few people came".

Is this really a surprise, when you're tossing out fake money?

I believe there are laws against that sort of thing. If not there should be. Can you imagine what would happen if you started throwing a bunch of money around large group of people?

They are free to do whatever they want with their money (like, giving it) but as are the other riches. They can't decide for others.

First of all there are only 44 signatures so I'm not sure how much traction this is going to get. Secondly, having large amounts of assets means nothing when it comes to paying income taxes.
Someone earning 200K per year with no assets will pay far more taxes than the guy who has 10 million in assets but shows 25K of income.
I would like to know how much these people make as income, then we will know how legit they are.

The government can.
