Charitable Giving

I got this image from the Mint.com blog. They typically post things that are enlightening, but I found this especially so. Two things jumped out at me:

1. Conservatives give more than liberals. I've tried to tell my liberal family that I do believe in taking care of the less fortunate, but I can do that much better than the government.
2. "Religious" people give more to secular charities than secular people do. Now, I'm not sure what makes one religious in this study, but certainly puts reduces the "religion is only good for starting wars" argument.
