Sign "Giving Pledge" to National Debt

Created by M.M. on January 09, 2013

Mr. President:

The great generosity of the Giving Pledge, with the leadership of Bill and Melinda Gates, is inspiring. Sadly they feel that they are better stewards of charity than the current administration. You show the power of our government to solve issues such as poverty and efficient health care. I would ask that you be the first to

"donate 50% of your wealth to help our government"

The administration in office at the time will make wise choices with the funds. This would be far more efficient than donating it to charities. I think your leadership on this issue may lessen the tax burden on my generation. I would like to see many others join your pledge, sadly I think It it may only be you. But hey, every bit helps.
