Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Lol a donation cannot be written off by two entities. Americans would need to itemize their deductions, which very few do.

The company does not write off the donation. It's not their donation, it's your donation. The company is a collector only.

Sure, the more correct wording would be "neither the customer nor the company are taxed on the donation". Assuming the customer itemizes their taxes, which a you've pointed out is rare.

I'm trying to speak at the level of people who post stuff like the OP. Some of the details don't shake out correctly but I'm not trying to get in the weeds of US tax code here if the main point holds up.
