I want the government to server the people. NOT the corporations and churches. Keep your religion to yourself and tax churches. (at least the bullshit big ones)

When it comes to tax exemptions for religion, I'm in favor of removing them all.

Religions should be treated as non-profits, if they don't want to pay taxes they need to file paperwork that shows the money is being used for expenses or charitable purposes, and there should be transparency to ensure that if they're doing shady shit like sending donated money to Italy or paying pastors millions or buying private jets, then at least that information is public.

honestly in most places this would be sufficient, but in america I think we need to just ban it all for a few decades first.
