It's an inference, and not a very nice one at that.In March, I'm plan to start selling my first for-sale product. Half the monies earned will go to support a shelter here in Houston that specializes in helping homeless women and children. There's no exploitation going on. There will be no hidden costs. I'll get X amount of money, divide that by 2, and write a check for that amount to the shelter. Piece of cake, and completely honest.If folks don't want to buy my product, that's their prerogative, of course. If folks don't like my choice of beneficiary, the same applies. I, for example, won't be supporting the particular effort that is the topic of this thread because I find Doctors without Borders morally distasteful. If I'm going to donate money to Haiti relief, I'll do it via other means to an organization that I find acceptable.Isn't freedom of association great?</blockquote>
