These are the same people who operate Eureka Gardens.   They operate as a ministry.   Their top "minister" is paid $485,000 a year.

So my question is, with so much abuse of tax exempt status, from political organizations to churches to charities, a lot of which are really being run for the benefit of the people who run them, what would be the downside to simply ending any and all use of tax-exempt status?   Make every organization taxable.

I'm almost certain one of you guys can crush this idea logically, so this thread may not last more than a few posts, but I want to give it a shot anyway.   Let's think out of the box a little.

End all tax-exempt status for everyone.
