Tithing and taxes

I have heard this said before but Jay Tea at Wizbang had a very good take on it.

How Much Is Enough?
Last week, Senator Bernie Sanders (Socialist-VT) held forth for hours on the floor of the Senate, giving full voice to the leftist ideals of shared sacrifice, shared burdens, shared wealth — basically, the idea that nothing is yours, but everything is ours. In the midst of his assault on individual rights and individualism, he posed an interesting question: how much money is enough for people to make and keep? At what point is someone “rich enough?”


Interesting thought. Let’s turn it around: how much money is enough for the government to take from someone? At what point has someone contributed their “fair share” in taxes, fees, duties, and all those other euphemisms for “the government wants your money.”

This disorder has basically ruined many relationships and it pills cialis can push men into depression. Sometimes it’s a struggle for them, but they do their best to live up to what they see as their duty to God.

If God can get by on 10%, why should the government need more? The government just has one country; God has the entire universe. And, it can be argued, has a hell of a lot more responsibility than the government.

(Just don’t try to vote Him out of office. It was tried once, and didn’t end well.)
