What’s up with grocery stores demanding an extra dollar?

Today’s show: Why do grocery stores guilt people into giving a dollar in the checkout line but not match the contribution? It’s not charitable of them to pass off our contributions as their own when they can afford to double whatever’s raised. Plus, of course, Joe Barton is a buffoon.

Listen here.

    I tried to listen to your show regarding the grocery store charitable fundraising.

    Here is the problem with your agruement and most of your agruements. You understqand ZERO about business and always looking for a handout!
    Who pays for the employees to collect the funds? The Charity or the business? OPPPSSSS! Blows a big ol hole in your agruement.
    So if the company is paying fo the labor, aren’t they contributing to the cause? With out the business making their employees ask the question….the charity goes with out those funds.
    All you see is give me, give me, give me.
    Wake up and do a little more yourself and maybe you would understand these principles. Obviously you don’t have much life experiences to understand all the details. As long as someone else pays…….your ok. Open your wallet. Every body has to have skin in the game. Or was that a smart ass comment, and I should have said something nice.

  2. “Who pays for the employees to collect the funds? ”

    Give me a break. Where do they find these people..oh, yah, that’s right. The schools no longer teach critical thinking.

    How much hard labor does that entail??? What? 10 minutes?

    Who gets the tax break??? The business.

    Seems to me the tax break pays for the labor, if not more.
