Even the Waltons have their charitable contributions. One of Sam's daughters contributed most of the funds for a new art museum in Bentonville. Either the Waltons or Wal*Mart created a trust so this museum would be free to the public. I went to Walton Jr. High School, which Sam built, but it was later renamed. But this kind of giving is only beneficial to those that live in Bentonville. It doesn't help the average, minimum wage earner that works for the company.
What do you know, there is a point that we agree on!! I fully support a more equitable tax system and closing the loopholes that allow the uber-wealthy to not pay their fair share. Hell, I don't really like it and it would force my family to tighten our belts, but I'd give up my mortgage deduction if it would help benefit society.
