Blago Donates 1%

One of the things I admired about Governor Jim Edgar is that he tithed.

He gave 10% of his family income to church.

When I see an article about a politician’s revealing his income tax forms, I’m always curious as to what percentage he or she donates to church and charity.

The governor has finally filed his income tax forms and reports donating $2,900, according to the Chicago Tribune.

That’s out of $286,920.

So, Governor and Mrs. Rod Blagojevich donated a little over 1% of their 1995 household income to charitable and religious activities.
