For all the talk about tax relief, this no-brainer isn't even on the table. Powerful churches grow richer every day, while those who can least afford it cover the tax obligations of some of the wealthiest institutions in the world. It's time to end welfare for churches. They can and should pay their fair share, and thus relieve the tax burden on everyone else.

Family values? Putting food on the table is a family value. Affordable healthcare is a family value. We need to stop subsidizing religious organizations on the backs of the working poor, and show that we do indeed place a great value on families. Otherwise "Family Values" is just empty rhetoric.

No one is asking you to abandon your church or your faith! Think about it: when religious institutions are paying their fair share of taxes, your own tax burden will be lessened proportionally, and you will be better able to financially support whatever institution you wish.

WE DO NOT WANT YOUR MONEY. SERIOUSLY.

WHAT WE WANT IS THIS: The next time Congress is looking for an extra $20 billion a year to finance a war - or a tax cut - tell them to look no further than income tax on religious payroll.
