Peter Singer - ordinary people are evil
This is kind of a long video for a place like this, but if you listened to it or are familiar with the argument, what do you think?
It's hard for me to find fault with it in general, but I do know I don't like donating to charity because a lot of charities end up pocketing the money or are scams and that bugs me.
I also feel that corporations, since they own the means of production, control employee wages, and directly influence our economics by extension, should lead by example by donating more than what their employees donate and that if they can't do this, the system is evil to begin with; then if employees only donate their money, but not the corporations, then the employees are in a weaker economic position to try and change the system itself for the better. This argument may be flawed though, I'm not sure. Economics gets confusing sometimes.
