Abstract

The article discusses the contemporary American Society, where the idea of charity seems illogical and a patronizing concept. It states that corruption in the system is so manifested that even official machinery cannot set society free from evil. It also states that the idea of do-gooders is not a mere epithet but many Americans still practice charity as part of their moral duty. It informs about various eminent philanthropists which includes John Wintrop, William Penn and Ralph Nader.
