What do you contribute back to society?

Well, I've worked in government and politics for nearly 30 years, including serving as a Legislative Director to three Members of Congress. In addition I worked on the Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional Warfare and was actually on a terrorist's hit list at one point.

In addition to that, I have not missed an election - Federal, state or local level - since I turned 18. I pay my taxes and - as I hope my above listed career path suggests - I try to stay informed on all serious public policy issues.

Beyond that, I try to behave in a civil manner and treat my fellow citizens with respect and good manners.

All in all, about the best I can do.

Protection, advice/perspective/options, and compassion/justice at times/when needed.

Would’ve been more if there hadn’t been so much stubbornness, narcissistic tendencies/competitiveness/envy,

corruption of all sorts, and so on.

So, for now, I offer the basic/ minimum, and the decency of basic human respect. That’s also a privilege and right that can be altered by me (withheld), if the person does not reciprocate this and openly DISrespects myself.

Well, I have been volunteering every Saturday since last year. That is a way I give back to my community, and a way I speared the love of the Lord.

Taxes, small donations, being a considerate member of the public and smiling when appropriate 😁 and making people's lives easier like giving way at a parking spot 🅿️ or being polite when it comes to other impatient drivers 😬

[paledreams]

And I've usually been working at some point in one job or another and even volunteering gigs -

[ProbablyClueless]

I create jobs, help out with my local homeless aide services, donate to churches. I'm sure there are other things, but that stuff was at the top of my head.

[nolabels]

I try to contribute love.

I'm not always successful at it, but I try the best I can and strive to be better at doing so.

Carbon dioxide mostly. Every once in a while I like to volunteer at a soup kitchen.

[Still-alive]

We appreciate your carbon dioxide.

[thatshydork]

I volunteer a lot and also I sometimes give food to the homeless.

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

Often love, sometimes anger.

[sawno]

Fixed computers, ideas, world class gameservers and free tools / software.

[Juxtapose]

Taxes. I have no obligation beyond that.

My best contribution is defending the open marketplace of ideas and the second amendment through my speech.

I punish the scum that think they are above the law and untouchable...

Just being a good law abiding citizen who'll help anyone :)

I obey the law and treat people with respect.

[Maybeyoutoo]

As a Christian, I contribute to the morality of society.

[DrPepper12]

I'm not gonna make a snarky comment because religious orgs do SOME effective charity work

[Maybeyoutoo]

@DrPepper12 Have you ever thought about how this universe you live in came into being? Have you ever thought about who gave you the air you breathe?
Yes, maybe you thought about it and always came to this conclusion: science
Fuck science

[DrPepper12]

Like Billy the Bard said, "As you like it..."

Taxes.

[paledreams]

Don't we all, I hear man, taxes. Taxes are vital 😎

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Yes but that's still a valid answer

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Although I hate being taxes in my country. They don't use it well. But if I'm another citizen then I probably wouldn't mind.

[TallAnon]

Tax.
