Why do you feel this way?
  • n/a
  • z
  • only give to the charities who give 100% of the money to the victims.
  • i don't know
  • na
  • most of the funds disappears
  • idk
  • a charity is more in touch with the people
  • i don't trust the funds to be distributed properly.
  • someone needs to be in charge of the money.
  • everyone can help out
  • other
  • no
  • government only
  • i donate monthly to cbn club with pat robertson and they distribute the money where needed.
  • yes or no answer. it depends on the honesty of the person handling the situation.
  • /
  • the money might not get to people that needs
  • idk
  • na
  • .......
  • people need it
  • charity
  • why noy\t
  • government is the only organization with the resources to keep it organized
  • just do
  • just because someone is suppose to be closer and handling a job that this, doesn't mean they will or are good at it.
  • to make sure it's being donated properly.
  • gov't ineffective in these situations
  • it should be handled properly so it gets to the people who need it as quickly as possible
  • someone has to handle the funds
  • to make sure something gets done and not allow random people to just secretly take the money.
  • idk
  • idk
  • meh
  • so they go where they are suppose to
  • there are some shady characters out there.
  • na
  • someone has to be in charge.
  • na
  • don't trust the government.
  • i guess so.
  • yes charity no goverment they have to many other things to worry about
  • i justaout make ends meet and i can get any help so it would be nice to be helped when needed
  • i trust them to spend money on the people who really need it.
  • somebody has to take care of the money. hopefully these people are honest and dedicated.
  • n/a
  • safer
  • they get involved in everything else, it should be their problem.
  • taxes
  • just do
  • none
  • na
  • f
  • its there job!
  • should be the easiest and quickest way to get help to them
  • if they collect the money then they distribute it
  • i worry that some organizations will skim off the top for their "expenses" to promote the fundraiser. i'd rather give to smaller charities that i trust more.
  • should not be mixed with monies for other charities. the government will invariably mess it up.
  • i don't trust charities
  • ,
  • charities tend to waste less money than government agencies.
  • n/a
  • most charities aren't trustworthy enough and the government would just take the money and blow it on something other than what it was donated for, the same as they do with social security benefits, and make people feel they are asking for a handout when they try to retire or become disabled.
  • im not sure if the money is used for the right purpose
  • beacuse some people take the donatios
  • someone has to so they can oversee the use.
  • they will screw it up
  • safer, no corruption, properly used.
  • just because
  • don't trust either
  • n/a
  • other
  • the less government involvement, the better
  • n/a
  • .
  • don't trust the money is going to ppl in need
  • n/a
  • because the government might take some of the money for themselves
  • no scam
  • it is the right
  • theyre always helping out people,why not disaster victims.
  • i think that is better
  • don't know where money goed
  • someone has to do it
  • somebody has to do it.
  • both are important! however, we pay taxes for stuff like this!
  • because i think they re more qualifiedto do this kind of thing
  • ,,
  • dont konow
  • people steal
  • h
  • na
  • i have been around for while and watch the goverment con the people over and over.
  • n/a
  • good.
  • great need
  • to be held accountable
  • dont care
  • nothing
  • because that is what the agencies are for. someone has to be in charge of it
  • so it is safe
  • ?
  • kjkl
  • a
  • someone has to manage the funds
  • because sometimes the money doesnt go to the people who need it
  • idk
  • so take the most and very little left for the victims
  • appropriate to be handled by a charity, but not by the government, since the government is too corrupt andd the funds wont be used properly.
  • be careful to who you donate to. research the charity to find out everything that you can before donating anything.
  • no opinion
  • her resposabilities
  • to make sure people actually get whats needed
  • both ways
  • everyone needs some type help soon or later if i needed help i would hope someone would
  • a charity would be more trustful
  • i'm not sure
  • we must all help one another
  • grovment needs to help
  • either, if it gets the job done!
  • i do not trust some charities and or government agencies.
  • i think it should be sent to the family directly.
  • not sure who to trust
  • because i feel that at least 99% of the funds should go to help the victims, not "overhead" and salaries for the charity or government agency
  • i don't trust that the money gets to the victims
  • i dont know
  • need someone experienced
  • yes because that is why charities are in place to help people that cannot help themselves.
  • none
  • because they now how to use the money
  • its ok
  • government can govern where the money will be allocated
  • n/a
  • people often scam others in the guise of charity
  • n/a
  • because
  • ?
  • so long as the money is given impartially that is the best way, and also that all the money goes to effected people.
  • charity because the government wastes too much money
  • to better insure help.
  • honest
  • n/a
  • k
  • they know the needs better.
  • the question was worded wrongly
  • na
  • it eventually comes out of our pockets anyways when it comes from the government.
  • cause
  • someone has 2do it
  • ,m
  • none
  • na
  • better them than me
  • misuse of funds happens all the time
  • you are asking an "or" question "charity" or "government agency" but your answers are "yes" and 'no", doesn't make sense
  • no one ever donated to me - i was poor as hell - right here in the west and no one gave a good god damn
  • a charity; not necessarily gov't. i do feel that funds can be better collected and distributed by one central entity rather than a lot of individuals.
  • because
  • someone has to handle it
  • wat.
  • because it's the good to help people.
  • the donations are run through pre-screened charitys or part of a goverment agency.i believe or wish to believe that part of my donations were used for those poor people whos lives were turn upside down and that the little i did give made a little difference if it helped a child or a family...
  • just do
  • to make sure they are spent appropriately
  • na
  • i rather it will go directly to the victims and not to charity
  • control
  • na
  • somebody's got to do it
  • the government should help out not us!!!
  • just as long as there is some tracking/accountability for getting it where it needs to be
  • 0
  • scams everywhere
  • charity only, the government cannot get anything right.
  • government has too many high payed employees to handle the money. i think less goes in the providers pockets if handled by a charity.
  • na
  • don't know much about how it works
  • the the country is supposed take care of thier ppl
  • no
  • it depends what chairty is handling it.
  • ?
  • sdf
  • n
  • good people are still around.
  • a charity needs funds to provide relief. a government agency should already be funded by taxpayer money.
  • the red cross is your best option, all money goes to the people.
  • none
  • charity
  • na
  • na
  • need to be monitored
  • they are experienced in dispersing the funds and probably at getting better deals on badly needed goods.
  • i would like to know my money is going to the cause.
  • unfortunately, some organizations (and the people who run them) cannot be trusted around large amounts of money, and can't be trusted to ensure that money gets to those who really need it.
  • they can make the cause a more well-known one.
  • idk
  • i think they could be held accountable for this
  • i trust them to help.
  • na
  • n/a
  • to keep control
  • i feel the ceos` are taking too much of the funds for themselves !!!!
  • as long as it is monitored, it's ok.
  • not sure really.
  • n/a
  • i think that it is good if people have the money to share then they should help out where they can. our money is pretty tight and i am already committed to regular monthly charities but if we had extra money i would help out where i could.
  • charity,gov take off for them selves a paycheck,gov give to over seas countrys can not be sure gets where it ought to go.
  • i don't know, i'm just a kid.
  • n a
  • so it will be distributed fairly and equally
  • na
  • n/a
  • because they use a huge percentage of the money to pay themselves salaries.
  • to help people
  • who else?
  • available answers don't correspond well to the question;i believe private charity's preferable to government intervention.
  • because the people that need the funds dont get the money
  • not sure who i trust
  • just because
  • they can help
  • less likely to be wasted
  • it has to be handled by someone, right ?
  • will they receive all of the funds?
  • not sure
  • makes sense
  • i think the government will have to put in way more money than the total of donations taken in to help
  • handled by the charity.
  • who else would decide how the funds are being used?
  • fghjkl
  • just as long as they are distributing it where it's supposed to be.
  • too much strain on the already strained government.
  • someone has to do it.
  • it ' s a public - private partnership !
  • charity organizations know how to organize a donation drive better.
  • somebody has to do it
  • should be a highly reputable charity--too many scams that tends to make one wary of donating
  • charities and government bodies are able to take monies for themselves far too easily.
  • because
  • government can't their bills as it is. let's not tempt them with a flow of cash.
  • most ppl pocket the money so, it doesn't matter who handles what because most of the money will not reach the victims any way.
  • i think both are important
  • charity or government is fine with me
  • none
  • they need help
  • na
  • because people can steal the money.
  • d
  • i just feel the money would get to the people that need help, to many gov and charity's put it in general revenue and the people end up getting screwed
  • no
  • who else
  • i think that a local charity with community ties should handle the donations, not the government, because that way the victims have a better chance of getting 100% of the donations given
  • not trustworthy
  • these people are fair
  • charity
  • he's an american hating muslim
  • steal
  • yet you decline mine well written
  • because this is the best way to distribute money.
  • 100% goes to the victims
  • there are a lot of corrupt people in this world
  • to make sure people in need get it
  • charity okay, government no
  • thy are crooks. plain and simple.
  • it doesn't matter either way
  • i just think a charity would use the money whereit is most needed
  • cuz
  • not all of the donations get to the victims.
  • they wont give 100% to the situation
  • not sure
  • in canada and the usa our taxes support the military / reserves these resources should be used to help victims of these type of tragedies and disasters.
  • charity might not get enough to help everyone so government needs to help also
  • someone needs to do it...
  • n/a
  • it will be best to be handle by the locals... some parts were not affected but some are
  • just because.
  • because the money may
  • n/a
  • unsure should be an option on this question
  • charity , government is too corrupt - the 60 billion superstorm sandy relief aid approved by our government took 5 months to pass, included less than 10 billion in aid for the effected region and there is absolutely no accounting for how that money was actually spent
  • so it gets to the appropriate people
  • they will use it
  • good.
  • because it's helpful
  • not sure
  • .
  • i trust the red cross, doctors without borders, global medic etc., they put the money to good use and help out whomever needs it.
  • n/a
  • im not sure ....seems more legit
  • i don't feel the victim are getting the money...use haiti as an exemple...worse today than the beginning and millions of dollars given,,i feel that some people use this money to create themselves some wealthy job
  • because they need plenty of help
  • everyone needs to help if you can
  • civic duty to help
  • not sure
  • na
  • i do not want to say
  • charities are always better than government.
  • n/a
