Charities aren’t a problem… well most aren’t — but when it’s one of the largest chunks of your GDP you have to wonder why so much is charity? It’s an important model but its overused.
ideally everything would be charity and help people and motivate them with doing good. Reinvest in society instead of concentrating wealth. (sngpl.ma/t5P61)
Just that reaction — we can’t shut down conversation about it just because most charitable things are super important and necessary. I would love to see more charitable orgs solving housing, for example. But not funding startups or proving technology for private corps.

I agree with you. I don’t think you need a charitable org that thrives on attention only in order to do that.
