I think there can be some middle ground. Someone I have followed on YouTube for years has done yearly donation drives for a homeless youth shelter around Christmas. They raised maybe 10k a year for a few years. Last time, they decided to go through the effort to setup an endowment for the charity, and raised a couple hundred grand. That charity now no longer has to look for donations during Christmas to provide presents to the kids and meals to families on hard times. I think that's a great thing. I wouldn't want that to go away. I absolutely want tax shelters for billionaires to go away.
