Americans gave, per capita, three and a half times as much to causes and charities as the French, seven times as much as the Germans, and 14 times as much as the Italians.
Just because you have privatised giving money to charitible causes doesn't mean that you give more than Europeans. In Germany the state pays for more charitible causes which makes people pay indirectly through taxes for them.
