Texan here. Winter used to be a nice break from our hot, humid, miserable summers. Now some years I don’t even need to wear a jacket. It’s just hot all year round now. I hate it.

Charity is only necessary because corporations like McDonald’s exploit the working class. They pay us wages that are barely (or not) sufficient to keep us alive, then pocket the rest. All the billions the corporation makes is billions created by and stolen from the working class. Under a more equitable system based on mutual aid and in which the workers control the means of production, and own the fruits of their labor, charity as we know it would become unnecessary.
