The Price of Generosity
I was reading through the Filipino online news websites the other day and found an interesting story about a man who founded an orphanage in the southern part of my country. The man generously shelled out 4M dollars to house and educate a number of orphans. At first I was really impressed, then I read what made him rich in the first place -- he was feeding the US troops in Iraq.
So I started questioning whether what this man was doing was actually good or not. In the first place, he is indirectly supporting a war that should never have happened in the first place.
So what is the price of generosity? I will never know.
