ALL donations are tax deductible. You can bet your sweet ass none of those companies would donate anything if that money wasn't tax deductible. Sorry, but that's the cold hard fact.

I don't think that everything in life is black or white. There's also grey. Bill Gates didn't have to donate billions of dollars just to avoid paying taxes. We don't know why he did it and I personally can only applaud him for doing so.

Bill Gates could donate 45 billion dollars and still live comfortably for the rest of his live. Of course he won't do that and I don't blame him. Most of the money he donates is tax deductible. Same thing with Warren Buffet.

yes, and how much would be reduced from tax?  would the reduction from tax be equal to the 300 million yen donated? coz thats how much tax has to be reduced for the 300m yen to be not felt by sony or any company donating. youn should just shut your yap as clearly you are just an asshole. of the many good people who died in that eartrhquake and the tsunami i wonder why assholes like you just dont drop dead already.

You have been reported. FYI, I have donated just like I donated for Haiti and the Indonesia Tsunami, but you have to be extremely gullible if you think these companies are donating because they are "good" companies. 1) It helps their taxes, 2) It makes them look good. Business only look out for themselves.
