    I am not arguing against donations. My point is them being depended on them. Some places it is free to go to university, college etc. medical care. Other places it costs a fee. There is no reason for them to become dependent on donations especially politicians

    Also who cares about up/down votes!?

      Not saying I care about the votes. Just saying I don’t downvote people in a discussion (unless they are engaging in bad faith/trolling), since I noticed someone had downvoted your comment almost immediately.

      That being said, even in some countries with excellent health care standards, organizations depend on outside donations. I imagine a similar thing happens in education but I can’t say for sure, since it isn’t my field.

      Although, just for the sake of playing devil’s advocate, any system dependent on govt funding could be corrupted by the govt’s agenda, just like a donor could shape a nonprofit.

        I agree, that they are, but argue that they shouldn’t
