Bono's anti-poverty charity still hasn't found what it's looking for

Poor people:

Bono's anti-poverty foundation ONE is under pressure to explain its finances after it was revealed that only a small percentage of money it raises reaches the needy.

The non-profit organisation set up by the U2 frontman received almost £9.6million in donations in 2008 but handed out only £118,000 to good causes (1.2 per cent).

The figures published by the New York Post also show that £5.1million went towards paying salaries.

Glad to see that a bunch of lefties have well paying jobs, though.

Via I Want A New Left, who pretty well nails it:

This seems to be the way redistributions work: pay off all the redistributors first, and the tiny scraps that are left go to those they're trying to help.

Word.  Of course, it's pretty hard to find the poor. 

I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
