With complete reckless abandonment of public image, and a slap in the face to those affected by cancer, as well as their benefactors, the Susan G. Komen foundation has filed countless lawsuits against any other cancer awareness group using the phrase "for the cure." Most of these non-profit organizations are smaller organizations completely unable to weather the fight against the Komen Foundation's top tier legal team.
It's a sad chain of events to know that the the nation's preeminent charity vigilantly looks to seek and destroy other grassroots organization, creating some sort of altruistic hegemony. Through some degree of separation, everyone is somehow affected by cancer, and those who donate to charities fighting the illness do so out of their own kindness. It's a shame that their kind donations are going to lawyers instead of researchers and raising awareness for copyright laws instead of a plaguing disease. It can only be imagined those suffering from cancer feel about how THEIR money (those who donate do so for the people affected, not the organization) being put to such a proactive endeavor.... kudos.
The most disturbing of the matter is what this action represents to society. It is already common knowledge that 98% of America is governed by corporate greed, the last 2% being charities and those who donate to them. Now that the charities are corrupt, the donators now have no choice but to behoove apathy and cynicism. The small percentage of people who do care are disillusioned. How can someone donate money now when transparent politic muddy the compassion. Why support causes, it all goes to the system anyway; abandon all hope!*
Author's(blogger's) note: Im being a tad hyperbolic. I still urge people to see the glass half-full and to support causes.
