Let’s Treat Everyone Equally

I’ve been reading all the political “stuff” for a long time now and I’ve been paying taxes on my meager little earnings a long time too.

What about if instead of raising taxes, we start taxing all those tax exempt places? Lower taxes across the board and make everyone pay, including those who live in large mansions because they do good works?

It is possible to do a lot of charitable work without being affluent. The truly good will still give, the others probably just trade tit for tat by getting a tax break when they give. Let’s separate the grain from the chaff, find out who is on the short list for heaven and who is just cutting their losses.

Benefits would include allowing private schools the same benefits as public ones, minus government subsidizing, let’s make everyone equal. Alright you say, what about all that good the so called charitable corporations do? They can still do it, they will just have to revamp their processes. Start at the top and work down. After all, who put a dollar value on Jesus? I doubt if he was insured for his fiscal worth, and I know he was not put up in a billion dollar mansion.

If you want to go for the burn, give until it hurts, feed the poorest of the poor, I honestly love and honor your desires. I try to give as much as I can in all the ways I can too, but I don’t believe it should be subsidized by the government. It is just too hard to document real good intentions.
