OK, a quick question, how many of you are aware that the BBB includes a provision for a $ 1,700 tax credit for a donation to a non public school scholarship program? If I owe uncle $ 15,000 next year I’d much rather give him $ 13,300 and spread the other $ 1,700 among the Catholic Schools I and my kids attended. Thanks to the “Jewish Weekly Standard” for the info!

A more important question to this little L libertarian is “Why?”

  • Why have this “loophole” when the USA has the current 137T+ national debt and the guesstimated 200T+ in unfunded liabilities that our posterity will have to deal with.
  • Why is the Gooferment “picking” winners and losers with the manipulation of the tax code — best to figure out how to end Gooferment Skrules and put parents in charge. (They had them; they feed them; they should school them.).
  • Why don’t we stick to the Dead Old White Guys’ vision of a very limited Federal Gooferment? Why do we continue to accept the “bad behavior” of politicians and bureaucrats at all levels of society?

Why …, … why …, … why …?
