I don't understand why people confuse this so much. It's not "should I pay this $100 in taxes or donate it?". It's "Should I pay this $100 in taxes or donate the $300 I made that the tax is for?".
Why does everyone make it sound like you can choose whether to pay taxes or donate? It's "pay taxes or donate 3-4x that amount".
