He didn't earn it. He collected it. It's not like it was his own money.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I give to organizations like Red Cross every paycheck. I've also worked collecting donations for other organizations (such as NAMI - not connected to Haiti, of course). I've never taken or considered taking a cent for doing so.

It depends. If it's world-viewable, no - if he doesn't want his shit on the Internet, then he shouldn't post it there for everyone to see. You don't have much expectation of privacy for things you willingly put on Facebook, or anywhere else on the Internet for that matter.

(I personally wouldn't re-post someone's crap from Facebook without sanitizing it, but that's a personal choice.)

I think he earned it. I mean, he put in the work to collect it no?

And that's good that you give to the Red Cross and helped NAMI. Smile

and i point out that when a person posts their stuff on Facebook they probably mean only for those who are their friends to be able to see it, otherwise they would just have their privacy settings wide open.

He did do a good, that's my argument. Even if you personally believe that him taking a slice of the donations was wrong, he did do some good.

So I guess we disagree.
