PING!

IRS Nanny State PING!

[Salvation]

BTTT!

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Almost forgot to ping you.

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.

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.

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?

Liberal politicians don’t like charities because they want you to depend on the govt..

[Taxman]

FairTax ping!

This is the kind of government insanity that will help us get the FairTax passed!

[TADSLOS]

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!

We have a 501(c)3 foundation. If this happens we will close the doors and sell the historic property.

What’s the point?

Bttt!

Liberals have long disposed private charitable contributions. They believe all funding must come from an all knowing government.

The Democrat Party chilled my charitable to the bone. In fact, they killed it.

[PapaBear3625]

Alternate proposal: repeal section 501(c). Eliminate the concept of un-taxed "non-profits".

Really, the Left, with things like the Clinton Foundation, Ford Foundation, and all the myriad "non-profits" who network together tax-free, and see their endowments grow tax-free as they pay members of the elites to sit on their boards and be their trustees, would be the most affected.

A warning especially during the holidays. Be careful about who you donate to. Many are scams. Do your research. It is a fact that the EBT crowd and prison inmate’s baby mamas put various kid names on every mall Christmas trees they can find. I used to work next to the welfare office so have heard them talking about it. A family member, who’s a prison guard, hears the same from inmates and visitors. We’ve been burned by adopting an elderly lady at the nursing home when the workers were going through our presents saying they want this and that for themselves and their friends. Just be careful.

It's hard to imagine a more chilling regulation on charitable giving. Would you be willing to enter your Social Security number into an internet donation form, knowing that the government will get to see it?

Uh, when you go to claim the charitable deduction on your tax return the government can find out to what organizations you donated.

This seems like a made up problem.

I tweeted to cruz about the fair tax... Why isn’t he supporting it?
