Why are you so intent on taxing churches?

For that matter, why do you seem to support income taxes to begin with?

Churches have zero right being tax exempt.

Without income tax, how are we going to pay for that bloated defense budget you GOPers love so much? That is about the only thing we are actually number one in the world at.

Defense of the nation is one of the few LEGITIMATE purposes of government, according to our Constitution. The welfare state and "distribution of wealth" are NOT legitimate.

Quote the provision that mandates the United States government is to fund education and healthcare?

Healthcare is not a mandate of the federal government. One of the worst things the conman (Obama) has done was stick his liberal nose in people's health care choices. It's destroyed lives and livelihoods.
It most certainly is "distributing the wealth". The conman robbed senior citizens of 700 billion dollars, removing those funds from medicare to pay for....what nobody knows...oh, probably a big portion of that went to the stellar computer system that bombed out, but hey...his wife's buddies got a good contract out of us.

There wasn't even a department of Education until 1980 and that something else that was suppose to be done locally.

You might need a nanny state to tell you how to tie your shoes, but I'll take freedom.
