Across The Damned Board?

[reconeil]

Think about this. Churches (if honest) and corporations (if also honest) could care less about taxes.

I so state, since for both churches and corporations The Parishoners, The Consumers, and Shareholders PAY FOR EVERYTHING (as usual). Just like as for governments (Local, State & Federal), The People are the closest thing to A Piggy Bank that churches and corporations also have.

Besides, churches need only have an extra collection (the norm),...and corporations need only raise prices (another norm).
In essence Andy,...the only people WHOM ACTUALLY PAY TAXES are: "We The (Schnooks)".

An example would be that if a corporate CEO were dissatisfied with being taxed 5 million from his needed 10 million dollar bonus, he merely ups a product price so that he can be taxed 10 million from his new and higher 20 million dollar bonus. Everyones happy. Big brother get 5 million more than before, and The CEO ends-up with all of The 10 Million as originally wanted. And, as usual screw The Taxpayer or The Consumer (church goers also).

P.S. Joy: If The Legion and VFW (the 2 largest veteran fraternities in America) are so great,...how come the VA horror stories keep geeting worse and worse every year? Besides, when I was talking about: "Lobbyists", I meant REAL LOBBYISTS. Not beaurocrats that have as much say-so and clout with other beaurocrats as I have. Also politicos love having as many such different organizations as is possible. A People Divided, and each having there own specific concerns are what such thrive-on. "They" automatically get large gatherings that can be pandered-to for votes,...and then go back to The Beltway and do as they damn-well-please (the norm) for 2, 4, or 6 years.
Whereas a similarly phony Lobbyist could be fired the same day.
