Can someone please explain this to me: Gas money, handing out endless amounts of publications, magazines, tracks, etc. Why can't get some of this money back, tax write off, etc? Why can't this happen? The watchtower gets a break from the evil satanic government, why can't pioneers get a break?? They bascially work for nothing!
Why can't regular pioneers get some of the money back that they use out in field service?

Yeah, there are several pioneers I know who use the US tax code to their advantage, counting field service expenses as basically "charitable contributions" and writing it off their taxes.
Others work for large corporations who have a program in which employees can be paid for time away from work for "charitable causes". The JWs go out in service and get paid for it, essentially. It's not that many hours, but still...

Oh okay, gotcha
I know where I grew up, most of the witnesses said they were doing this work for 'Jehovah' and that they did it for free. I NEVER understood why someone would want to spend there Saturday morning handing out free literature to people who were just gonna throw it away anywho.
