Are you serious?!? You think that companies encourage their employees to donate to a particular candidate?!? What company do you work for?

That is pretty crazy! I have never heard of this. Does it feel like your career might be affected if you show support for the wrong candidate?

While I agree, the poverty line here in the US is slightly higher than many countries. I've seen things in Egypt, Mexico, India, Africa etc. that are on a whole other scale.
Replying to [deleted] · This. Hell, my grandfather was in the hospital after a stroke for three weeks before passing and his total bill for everything was ~$17,000,000. Yep, that's not exorbitant at all…
While I agree medical costs are out of control, I have a hard time believing that your grandfather's 3 weeks stay cost $17 million!
