$50k is a drop in the bucket and wouldn't solve anything for any hospital in Detroit. You might as well complain about the vastly greater amount that will be spent on booze and strippers in Portland tonight. Spitting a $50k wad into the ocean that is financial deprivation in Detroit and feeling like you helped would be collective slacktivism. A statue endures, and might be a more-potent example of our belief in virtue than a fleeting "Platinum Circle Donors" nod from some charity.
RocoCop would probably shoot someone in the crotch, that's what.
How much would it cost to actually make a RoboCop statue anyway? Maybe we can get that guy who earned $16k a month for not building a bridge to help out. We can have the statue *and* the charity, is all I'm saying.

You're right, statue it is!
Oh, that's right, that's not how corporate charity works. They need PR before they can give away their tax donations.
