Well, here are my two cents 🤭
directed at the giving of tech companies (and briefly describes effective altruism) but the sentiment also applies to billionaires and me

I just rewatched Beth Barnes's TedX talk about effective charitable giving. She summarizes in a single minute what humanity could all achieve by simply donating 10% of our income to effective causes. It's so inspiring, tears welled up in my eyes, again. If you have 60 seconds to spare, please give this a watch.

Mm. It feels like they’ve thought of everything except Amazon paying tax like normal businesses.

The thing is, by freeing people from jail, you are not only doing ethically the right thing, but also saving a lot of money for the stupid administration.

In Germany, for example, when you are too poor to pay your fine, you might end up in jail. This results every year in ten thousands of jailed people for traveling without a ticket in public transport (jail looms after the third time they catch you). Obviously this hits the poor most (87 % are unemployed).
Every day in jail costs the state around 200 € per person.

The NGO https://www.freiheitsfonds.de/ raised 670 k € to free over 700 people from 137 years of prison AND saved the goverment around 10 million €.🤯
And this without taking into account the avoided (social) costs of the lives disrupted by jail time.

Already the social justice aspect is enough to support your cause. I just wanted to add the economic dimension, making it a total no-brainer. 👍

A new Knight Foundation study examines investment in women- and racial or ethnic minority- owned firms (“diverse-owned firms”) among those used by the country’s wealthiest philanthropic foundation endowments. This is the third study of charitable foundations in the Knight Foundation Diversity of Asset Managers (KDAM) series. https://knightfoundation.org/reports/kdamphilanthropy2022/

Every once in a while a prediction of mine is correct: Musk’s big donation a year ago didn’t go to a DAF but instead his own #foundation. Next question: how much money has that foundation lost in its #Tesla holdings this year?
