Sens. Tom Coburn, Oklahoma Republican, and Angus King, Maine Independent, have started a push to end the not-for-profit status for the National Football League, saying it’s only fair to taxpayers.
“This is a directed tax cut that [went] to the league office, which means every other American pays a little bit more every year because we give the NFL league office a tax break and call them a non-profit,” Mr. Coburn said on CNN’s “New Day.” “In fact, they’re not.”
Mr. King said on the program the bill only taxes the money that goes to the league office.
I never in my wildest dreams would have thought that the NFL was a non-profit! The millions of dollars they rake in on tickets, t-shirts, team logo merchandise. This is a travesty! Good for this guy!!
Wow! as if churches make a lot of money 3:48. Guess what .. they don't! that is why they hold fundraisers. You should shut up since you do not know what you are talking about. There are a lot of people who get help from church run programs. I have volunteered an I know what I am talking about.
4:48 I, too, know what I'm talking about. I have seen how the money flows. Yes, there are people "doing good", but it's what's behind the curtain that I'm speaking of. And, "shut up"? Are you 10?
that goes to the league office.
NFL, a non-profit, what a complete joke that is.

ReplyDeleteFootball isn't a religion?
ReplyDeleteThey receive the non-profit status in return for spewing government propaganda.
ReplyDeleteTax breaks for the NFL absolutely have to go.
ReplyDeleteChurches should be next! But, they will continue to get away from their fare share.
