A local Better Together campaign office realized that the organization had never received a donation from the towns most successful lawyer. So the person in charge of contributions called him tae persuade him tae contribute. Our research shows that out of a yearly income of at least £500,000, you give not a penny to charity. Wouldnt you like to give back to the community in some way? The lawyer mulled this over for a moment and replied, First, did your research also show that my mother is dying after a long illness, and has private medical bills that are several times her annual income? Embarrassed, the Better Together rep mumbled, Um ... no. The lawyer interrupts, or that my brother, a disabled Gulf War veteran, is blind and confined to a wheelchair? The stricken Better Together rep began to stammer out an apology, but was interrupted again. or that my sisters husband died in a traffic accident, the lawyers voice rising in indignation, leaving her penniless with three children?! The humiliated Better Together rep, completely beaten, said simply, I had no idea... On a roll, the lawyer cut him off once again, So if I dont give any money to them, why should I give any to you?.....
