We all know the profits they generate are siphoned off as exuberant salaries and property purchases for the staff/family that set these operations up. The state should not give them tax breaks at the cost of the rest of us. It’s not only a scam on the vulnerable, but also regular taxpayers and shouldn’t be allowed.
Agreed, it’s more of a handy perk, rather than a God-given right. Man the Govt is useless when it comes to so many protected organizations. We should have new amendments every time we spot a flaw in the law.
Blame our stupid, lack-of-foresight constitution and its countless amendments made to try to fix it’s naivety.
“The reasoning behind making churches tax-exempt and unburdened by IRS procedures stems from a First Amendment-based concern to prevent government involvement with religion.”
