PING!
IRS Nanny State PING!
BTTT!
Almost forgot to ping you.
Current law is that contributions over $250 have to have documentation. But only if audited.
Every conservative charity should become a Puerto Rican corporation. Corporations don’t get the scrutiny the charitable organizations do, and Puerto Rican companies don’t pay federal taxes.
I think IRS stands for I’m Really Satan.
What an evil organization.
.
As an aside, i think i am adapting to seeing apostrophes as in IRS’ and open and closed quotes as in “social welfareâ€!
The overwhelming majority of USA’s charity is private, while that of Sweden is government-centric.
This is another effort to transform the USA into Sweden, or a warmer analogue.
Another attempted step towards Socialism.
They’re doing this because NO ONE went to prison for the last major IRS scandal.
If u owe >$50,000 in tax and are not making payments, beginning Jan 1 the IRS will electronically revoke your passport.
Reason number 148,899,587,555 to shut down the IRS for good.
I’m sure I could think of more reasons, that that should be sufficient.
Every dollar contributed to private chairty is a dollar the government doesn’t hve to spend to “help” people. And that’s unacceptable to “progressives”.
What makes it worse is that private charities do the job MUCH more efficiently. How dare they?
Unless your name is Al Sharpton then you get invited to the White House hundreds of times.
Ted Cruz has said if elected the IRS will be shut down!
I shop a lot on Amazon as it is difficult with my health to get out and do it. They have a way you can contribute to a registered charity when you buy items. My Charity is St. Jude’s Children’s Cancer Hospital in Memphis.
I get most of my Christmas gifts from there with gift cards from Kroger’s as they are 4 times the gas points from Nov 18-Dec 8, as long as they are not Kroger, Credit or Multi denomination. Plus I get 1% back on my Discover card. I can shop for Christmas in 1o minutes that way, with 7 grands and 5 great grands, no way I can keep up with what they like or want or need. Let their parents do the shopping.
Well, he can say that, but his plan includes an income tax and a Value Added Tax. No way.
Liberal politicians don’t like charities because they want you to depend on the govt..
FairTax ping!
This is the kind of government insanity that will help us get the FairTax passed!
Back to work peasants! Charity is to be regulated out of existence...because only the gub’mint should confiscate your money to distribute as it sees fit. No competition!
