I just read in a New York paper online about another catholic priest having to apologize for endorsing a presidential candidate. Then we have Obama's boys preaching hatred and nonsense.  What exactly is it with religious leaders who think they know everything. They pretend to be political experts, they pretend to be CEO's, they pretend to be financial counselors, when really all they are is supposed to be a teacher of The Word. Unless they are a fraud, GOD called them to spread his word, not to build giant mega churches and businesses, not sway elections, not free people from thier hard earned money, but simply to teach and spread The Word and let The Word do all the rest.

I am tired about reading in church bulletins about all the "Help" church members can give to the elderly with financial matters and investments. What they are really doing is cutting the church in on part of the estate. Guilting little old ladies into taking money away from children and grandchildren, and giving "the first share" to the lord, or really to the greedy pastors.

I propose a new law in Wisconsin, "If a Church Leaders talks about Politics, Investments, Business Development or any other topic not directly related to The Word in the Bible, they should be deemed a business and taxed accordingly.

That my friends is the fix to the national economy. Remove the non-profit status from those who do not deserve it and you will generate hundreds of billions of dollars in new tax revenue without harming the average tax payer one bit.
