Unlike the mess we already have? I have no problem with charities. I do have
a problem with granting charities immense tax write-offs. The Catholic
church comes to mind, as do the Moonies.

United Way, United Fund, The American Cancer Society, the American Heart
Association...they are all tax free as are the Boy Scouts, Firls Scouts
and many other service organizations...start taxing one and you have to
tax them all...and then the burden comes down once again to the
taxpayers anyway so why not just up and quit and become damn Socialists?
