[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Why give anyone tax exempt status then? There are many nonprofit groups I would enjoy seeing lose their tax exempt status. Fair is fair.

again, I have to agree. More often than not when you see "Non-Profit" what you are looking at is corruption at it's finest.

Why not give EVERYONE, a tax exempt status so everyone has the opportunity to accumulate wealth?

Yes we would still need to pay for essential government, like the military etc. but that could be done more as an "assessment" rather than a "penalty" for making a profit or earning income.

Taxes both up front and hidden are absolutely crushing the wealth accumulating potential of every American. The tax exempt status of churches make that all to obvious.
