Why? Are you thinking here of some moral code like Maimonides ranking of tzedaka or imagining that intent should play a factor in tax law when it comes to a result of civic good?
How so? I really dont understand.
Possibly this is dependent on time and place because when I had first hand experience with the scene no one would have taken private or pubic funds even if it meant the difference between keeping the doors open or not.
Its possible we agree but for completely different reasons.
I wont try and pick apart meaning from that Marx quote. I’m not qualified and from what I’ve seen even trying to do so starts fights.
why is “doing good” in quotes? What do you mean by the last sentence? It looks to me like you are making a moral judgement which I dont understand if the result is that good is done anyway. Am I misreading?
