You don't understand the way it works at these places, do you?
Pretty much only the security people are paid employees.
Most of the rest come as retirees, etc. on a "mission" and pay the church to work in places like Florida. They have to pay their own way!
Well darn, thats tragic. I mean for them to pay of their own free will is just wrong!!!
"The Mormon church has no hospitals and only a handful of primary schools. Its university system is limited to widely respected Brigham Young, which has campuses in Utah, Idaho and Hawaii, and LDS Business College. Seminaries and institutes for high school students and single adults offer religious studies for hundreds of thousands."
The church has plowed resources into a multi-billion-dollar global network of for-profit enterprises: it is the largest rancher in the United States, a church official told Nebraska's Lincoln Journal Star in 2004, with other ranches and farms in Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Australia and Great Britain.
"In contrast, the Seventh-day Adventist Church, which had about 17 million members a year ago, appears to be getting a better return on investment: It builds smaller meeting houses and lots of schools and hospitals, and its numbers are swelling faster than the Mormons', said Stewart. The Adventists claim a million new members join annually, compared with every three years or so for the Mormons.
"The Seventh-day Adventists clearly have a much more expansive humanitarian project in terms of building hospitals and medical schools and schools and universities and long-term developmental infrastructure around the world," said Stewart. "It's paid off for them."

I DARE any of you defenders of mormon charity to provide links to articles describing mormon charities that are NOT specifically geared to aiding mormon members.
How many soup kitchens are "feeding Jesus' NON-MORMON sheep" from the millions of dollars worth of food stored in mormon-owned and run storehouses?
Let's see some examples of why you think that half-a-billion dollars is better spent on adding to corporate mormonism's wealth.
