Are talking about the House of Government Taxes, because that is what your church sounds like. Sheesh!

Its insane and the public school system is no better with all the fees for everything like field trips and other nonsense, all the fundraising activities all year, school pictures which are now 32 bucks for the package. So sad they even do a 2nd picture in the spring with no notification and send the pictures home without you even knowing they were taking them. Its a heartbreaker to have to send the nice pictures back because you just dont have the money right now. I figure I spend at least 1000 bucks a year on all the frivolous school items and supplies for my two kids. Some free education!
