Voting deadline: February 3947
Description[?]:
| Though we support the right to practice religion, and we see it as beneficial for our nation, we see the tax breaks to religious facilities as dangerous. Any group could claim to be religious, and then lots of people would be getting tax breaks. We don't wanna tax donations, but if a church is making profit, they ought to be paying taxes. |

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
