eBay charity

I have been thinking and wishing that one day some of the millions of pounds that are spent selling and buying products on eBay could be donated to charity.

All I see on the TV at the minute is Recession, war, and poverty and its all around the world, now my thinking behind this is we get charged all the time for all sorts of things like VAT or tax on everything and even when you buy a simple thing online.

We should make an annual tax as the Internet has millions of business and I’m guessing 6 million are UK based so if they had a simple £1 tax year that could save so many lives or do so much to help causes around the world.

If this was put world wide we could cure Cancer or get rid of poverty so why not start this off on eBay and lead the way?

What do people think?
