I think that was what the temple of Set split from Lavey's bunch over, wasn't it? Lavey, whatever else you could say against him, was very opposed to tax free status for religions, while Aquino didn't think that there was any point being part of a church that paid taxes.

Yes, Aquino seems to have been real capitalist.

They both were, to be fair, it was just that LaVey was obsessed that the Pope and Pat Robertson should be paying tax as part of his general anti-christian bias. I always find the spectacle of somebody so hugely libertarian in everything else he said insisting that religions (or anybody else, for that matter) should be paying taxes very funny indeed.

I am not in total disagreement, there are many transactions that deserve no tax code subsidy. Why should the childless subsidize the child bearing ? Why should labor taxes subsidize investment capital ? Why should cults based on religious beliefs...be tax free and their revenue tax deductible ?

Most are emotional or greed and hardly pragmatic. Some counties (at least a few) have lower rates than the US and allows no deductions at all.

The EC voted for him, not the population.

The really funny thing about that is that the EC is supposed to be there to prevent an incompetent populist from getting elected by playing to the stupidest elements of the voting population. Doesn't seem to have done that, the couple of elections it intervened in this century, does it?

Constantly using the strategy of painting your opponents as racist, sexist, homophobes, or Islamaphobes isn't playing to the stupidest elements of the voting public? I find that far more damaging to the nation than the electoral college could ever be.

Nice to see you admit that when the repubs have govt., govt. truly becomes a marketplace where ideas and the resulting acts legislation like tax advantages...are bought and sold. BTW, I...I...didn't 'lose' anything.

Yet you and so many righty partisans with the same rationale, bitch constantly when the dems win and presumably...you lose.

I mean talk about running a country on emotional, religious and get-yours-while-you-can, rent-seeking policies.

60% of the country keeps getting it in the ass...without the Vaseline ?

Why ? All of that you have here, describes perfectly how most repubs get into office in the first place.

No that's playing to people who are a bit more educated, or at least imagine themselves to be so, rather than the pig ignorant racist/sexist/homphobic/islamophobic mouthbreathers the spacehopper's campaign targeted: what Republicans have called "elitism" since the turn of the millennium.

that's been pointed out to them multiple times by a handful of people. they seem to be pathologically incapable of NOT doing so.
