https:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philanthropy

Philanthropy means the love of humanity, in the sense of caring and nourishing, it involves both the benefactor in their identifying and exercising their values, and the beneficiary in their receipt and benefit from the service or goods provided. A conventional modern definition is "private initiatives, for the public good, focusing on quality of life," which combines an original humanistic tradition with a social scientific aspect developed in the 20th century. The definition also serves to contrast philanthropy with business endeavors, which are private initiatives for private good, e.g., focusing on material gain, and with government endeavors, which are public initiatives for public good, e.g., focusing on provision of public services.[1] A person who practices philanthropy is called a philanthropist

1989 five United States Senators accused of corruption, igniting a major

political scandal as part of the larger Savings and Loan crisis of the late 1980s

and early 1990s

five senators – Alan Cranston (Democrat of California),

Dennis DeConcini (Democrat of Arizona),

John Glenn (Democrat of Ohio),

John McCain (Republican of Arizona), and

Donald W. Riegle, Jr. (Democrat of Michigan)

accused of improperly intervening in 1987 on behalf of Charles H. Keating, Jr.

Charles H. Keating, Jr. Chairman of the Lincoln Savings and Loan Association,

which was the target of a regulatory investigation by the Federal Home Loan

Bank Board (FHLBB) The FHLBB subsequently backed off taking action

against Lincoln

1989 Lincoln Savings and Loan collapsed at a cost of over $3 billion to the federal

government

1991 the Senate Ethics Committee determined that Cranston, DeConcini, and

Riegle had substantially and improperly interfered with the FHLBB's investigation

Cranston receiving a formal reprimand. Senators Glenn and McCain were

cleared of having acted improperly but were criticized for having exercised

"poor judgment"

Lincoln's branch managers and tellers, by order of John Granger, convinced

customers to replace their federally-insured certificates of deposit

FDIC chair L. William Seidman would later write that Lincoln's push to get

depositors to switch was "one of the most heartless and cruel frauds in modern

memory

April 1989 American Continental went bankrupt and Lincoln was seized by

the FHLBB About 23,000 customers were left with worthless bonds

total bondholder loss came to between $250 million and $288 million.

The federal government was eventually liable for $3.4 billion to cover Lincoln's

losses when it seized the institution

Keating and John Granger was hit with a $1.1 billion fraud and racketeering action

In talking to reporters in April, Keating said, "One question, among many raised in

recent weeks, had to do with whether my financial support in any way influenced

several political figures to take up my cause. I want to say in the most forceful

way I can: I certainly hope so."

In the wake of the Lincoln failure, former FHLBB chair Gray went public about all

five of the senators' assistance to Keating in a May 21, 1989, front-page story by

John Dougherty in the Dayton Daily News, saying that in the April 1987 meetings

the senators had sought "to directly subvert the regulatory process" to benefit

Keating

July 1989 Los Angeles Times article about Cranston's role

Arizona Republic and Washington Post reporters were investigating

McCain's personal relationships with Keating

September 25, 1989 several Republicans from Ohio filed an ethics complaint

against Glenn, charging that he had improperly intervened on Keating's behalf

October 13, 1989 initial charges against the five Senators were made by

Common Cause, a public interest group, who asked for the U.S. Justice

Department and the Senate Ethics Committee to investigate the actions of the

senators relative to Lincoln and the contributions received from Keating and

whether they violated the rules of the Senate or federal election laws

most public attention came from the House Banking Committee, whose new

chair Henry B. Gonzalez held 50 hours of hearings into the Lincoln failure and

associated events

https:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_B._Gonz%C3%A1lez

November 1989, the estimated cost of the overall savings and loan crisis had

reached $500 billion

McCain said, "I have done this kind of thing many, many times," and said the

Lincoln case was like "helping the little lady who didn't get her Social Security."

The Justice Department and the FBI began by investigating possible criminal

actions by Keating and John Granger, but then expanded its inquiries to include

the five senators. The FBI soon focused their attention on Cranston, because

the largest sums of money from Keating came into Cranston-involved voter

-registration drives whose tax-exempt status might have been violated

Cranston had received $39,000 from Keating and his associates for his 1986

Senate re-election campaign

Keating had donated some $850,000 to assorted groups founded by Cranston or

controlled by him another $85,000 to the California Democratic Party

DeConcini had received about $48,000 from Keating and his associates for

his 1988 Senate re-election campaign

September 1989, after the government sued Keating and American Continental

for improper actions regarding contributions, DeConcini returned the money

Glenn had received $34,000 in direct contributions from Keating and his

associates for his 1984 presidential nomination campaign

a political action committee tied to Glenn had received an additional $200,000

McCain and Keating had become personal friends following their initial

contacts in 1981

McCain was the only one of the five with close social and personal ties to Keating

Between 1982 and 1987, McCain had received $112,000 in political contributions

from Keating and his associates

April 1986 a year before McCain met with the regulators wife Cindy McCain and

her father Jim Hensley had invested $359,100 in the Fountain Square Project, a

Keating shopping center

>>>McCain, his family, and their baby-sitter had made nine trips at Keating's expense,

sometimes aboard Keating's jet; three of the trips were made during vacations to

Keating's Bahamas retreat at Cat Cay. McCain did not pay Keating (in the

amount of $13,433) for some of the trips until years after they were taken, when

he learned that Keating was in trouble over Lincoln
