@conspiracy2riot:
Actually we don't need to change laws since you can do that right now: give to American Cancer Society, American Diabetes Association, AIDS Research Foundation, Alzheimer's Association, AMC Cancer Research Center, American Heart Association, and so forth. You will be helping people find cures and you can deduct it off of your taxes, reducing the amount of your money goes to the causes you don't want to support. I personally like this system, since it gives us that freedom :-)

Obama’s Approval Rating Tumbles as He Learns on the Job
http://www.usnews.com/blogs/erbe/2009/09/01/obamas-approval-rating-tumbles-as-he-learns-on-the-job.html
The President is slipping down a slick slope in public approval ratings. A new Rasmussen poll shows his public support down by 19 points since the beginning of the year:
Overall, 46% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. That's the lowest level of total approval yet measured for Obama. Fifty-three percent (53%) now disapprove. Eighty-one percent (81%) of Democrats approve while 83% of Republicans disapprove. As for those not affiliated with either major party, 66% disapprove.
Why is the public losing confidence so quickly? My set of predominant reasons would differ from most others'. First, he's a piker who's learning on the job and it shows. His stimulus package was not designed to have an immediate effect on the economy and he is not being credited with any improvement as a result. His laissez-faire approach to health care reform has fizzled.
