Suppose that income taxes still had to be paid, but instead of going to the government, your tax dollars would go to any cause or charity of your choice. Assuming that money would have to go to the same place every year --- where would you want it to go?
Doctors and nurses go to 3rd world countries and repair cleft lips and palates. There are lots of superstitions in many of those countries against children and people with cleft lips and palates. Those kids are often hidden in their homes like lepers. They do not go to school. As adults they struggle to find work. Most, especially the girls, do not marry. That's not to mention the feeding problems and speech problems many of the children have.
