Well said!
If anyone should give to the ATC. Then that guy that takes people, for a FEE, 
on surported hikes on the AT should.

 None before has ever been held to having to support the AT or the ATC during 
their throughhikes, whether for charitable promotion or not.
 
 Guess I'm glad none of those who've run across the country for charity were 
also obligated to work on the highway system.
 
 If hiking on the trail, or writing of the trail, or granting an interview 
after your throughhike, or mentioning the trail at the next meeting of your 
local club, or happening to talk to the people feeding you a spare sandwich 
in the parking lot at the road crossing about the wonders of throughhiking 
EVER carried an automatic obligation.........
 
 We might as well put up gates and declare "None May Enter Who're Not Holier 
Than Me."
 
 I get it. Not pretty.
