Sick. I couldn't believe the hospital took it all.
Any kind of reciprocal spirit of charity would have the hospital take so much a year with the remainder, if any, to the hospital, but at least leaving the man something to live on.

That would be the government. His generosity is a lesson to us all.
as a percentage of income or net worth, how many hundreds of percent more than barry, biden and any other top democrat (gore...bubba's used undies...) does this work out to be?
We just decided in November to not hire a man who is probably the most generous one who ever ran for the office, and a man who probably saved or created more jobs than any previous candidate, and we decided against him at a time when we need both jobs and charity very badly. Instead, we chose... well, you know what we got.
I'm like the bizarro Michelle Obama. For the first time in my life, I'm not proud of my country.
I bet everyone in that hospital now feels compelled to tip him a little extra. Properly played this could be a cost leader that will make him money.....I think that if Meade & Althouse that they were going to give half their income from Amazon to the Orphan Children with Leprosy Fund, there would be a sizable bump in income.
".I think that if Meade & Althouse that they were going to give half their income from Amazon to the Orphan Children with Leprosy Fund, there would be a sizable bump in income."
Unless they expect their income to double from it, that suggestion just hit the floor at Meadehouse like an exhausted Labrador.
Oh I see. It wasn't a one-time gift, it was something he had been doing all along for thirty years. Impressive.
The article said he'd given a third of his salary to the hospital. So he's made $600,000 in 30 years? If true, that's astonishing generosity. Perhaps he makes side income doing something less, shall we say, reputable.
Obviously this will all be sorted out in his IRS audit. He must not be paying his fair share to the government, which is something to which we all belong.

Some people are so good. It's beautiful.

This man is everything Obama could never be or become. At the very least honest and charitable.
Should have invested it
An arrangement easily structured.
Are charitable gifts subject to the "lookback" disqualification if he needs medicaid?
The hospital should really have to account for this.
Tax this man!
Regulate that business!
Kindness equals decency squared.
Stand by for IRS audit in 5, 4, 3....
Cue the IRS........did he declare his tips?
Yeah, IRS will be visiting him about his undeclared tips.
Mr. Lexie is generous with more than just money.
He once gave me some great advice.
He said, "Get rhythym, when you get the blues."

One of the most glaring things wrong with this country.
Any trouble he has w/ the IRS will be the best new argument for replacing the income tax w/ a consumption tax.

Hey, he can't do that. There is a law against it. Yes, there really is. The law requires that he be punished and quite severely.
Enjoy the decline.

Bagoh- I still can't believe that happened.
I bet everyone in that hospital now feels compelled to tip him a little extra. Properly played this could be a cost leader that will make him money.....I think that if Meade & Althouse that they were going to give half their income from Amazon to the Orphan Children with Leprosy Fund, there would be a sizable bump in income.
May God bless him.
This man will wear a golden crown in heaven. Oh, and 'Burghers are the best!

Don't give it to a hospital they will just piss it away.
