The Society and taxes

Agent 1 of 1

We all know about how the society has tried its best to avoid taxes. For one, the whole deal with switching over to contributions for literature after Jimmy Swaggart lost his case. And also with providing food at the conventions. How it was left up to us to contribute for the provisions for several years until the whole food arrangement was dissed.

What I'm wondering is why not just accept being taxed. The whole food thing at the convention was a disaster I'm sure for the Society when they switched to donations. It just seems to me that if they had a price for everything, and even if it was taxed, they'd still make a profit. It seems then they wouldn't have to leave it up to luck and they would have control over how much money they make.

So, the question is, what does the Society have to gain by not being taxed?

Any answers?

If they accept any form of taxation it opens the doors to everything else getting taxed.

Consider how much they save by not having to pay property tax, employee deductions, etc. they oppose taxation on any level out of fear it will open the flood gates. Taxation is one of the few things the Society actually fears since it could bankrupt them.

Just like any other major religion.

Euphemism

Taxation could potentially lead to being audited. My best guess is that they have some very definite reason to want to avoid being audited. I have no clue what it is; but as long as they can avoid being taxed, they don't have to open their books to anyone.

Because the CrapTower is a money-making machine cloaked under the apearence of religion to shelter them from taxes.

I just don't get how a not for profit organization can complain about not making any profit . The whole tax shelter thing is set up for religious organizations that are supposed to help the needy with their resources , like one of the apostles wrote to look after widows and orphans but I never see any of that in the WTBTS org. I don't think publishing costs should be included in providing aid to the needy . I think way too many organizations abuse the privilege of charity or not for profit.

If you think it's bad for an individual to pay taxes, it's nothing compared to what a corporation pays. I nearly chock each month when I have to pay my companies income tax, FICA, property, etc. I would have to say that taxes take about 30% of my profit. Hmmm....maybe I need to become a religious organIzation.
