  • What does a tax hike mean?

    When tax hikes and tax increases are presented are they a % increase on the taxes themselves or the income?

    I feel like i'm being unclear so an example:

    There is a tax increase of 1%. A house with an income of $100,000 usually pays $30,000 in taxes but now pays:

    $30,300 (original+1% of tax)

    or

    $31,000 (original+1% of income)

  • Physics & astronomy degree, HS courses?

    I haven't taken Physics in High school but want to apply for universities as a Physics&Astronomy major.

    Will doing so hold back my application? Should I just apply as a liberal arts student and switch my major as I get in?

  • Proofread: a 9 year olds book report or Sally Kern's webpage?

    http://repsallykern.com/html/about_sally.php

    Sally Kern was first elected to the Oklahoma State House of Representatives on November 2, 2004. Sally and her husband, Dr. Stephen D. Kern, a Southern Baptist minister, were married in 1970 and have two grown sons, one daughter-in-law, and one grandson. Sally is a member of Olivet Baptist Church where her husband is pastor.

    Prior to her election, Sally was very active in her church as a Bible teacher and member of the choir, and continues to serve there. She was teaching high school government in Oklahoma City when elected, as well as coaching girl’s golf and volleyball. Sally has taught school about 20 years.

    Since Sally is an educator, her priorities in the House revolve around education. Her desire is to see the quality of education improve for all children. Her emphasis in education has been on reading. Reading is a skill students must become proficient in if they are to learn the various subject matters. Although education is a high priority because that is where her life experience is, Sally, also, has many other issues that are important to her. You can read about these under the "Issues" tab.

    Since being elected, Sally has served on various committees in the House. In 2005-2006 she was the Vice Chair for the Appropriations and Budget Subcommittee on Education, member of the Common Education, Health and Human Services, and Business and Economic Development committees.

    In 2007-2008 she was the Chair of the Human Services Subcommittee on Social Services, and member of the Education, Common Education, and Human Services committees.

    Sally graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington in 1971 with a B.A. in Sociology and a minor in History. In 1986, she received her teacher certification in Social Studies with an emphasis in Government from East Texas State University.

    Sally’s memberships include Olivet Baptist Church, the Northwest Chamber of Commerce, Heart and Hand non-profit ministry, Eagle Forum, Frontier Country Republican Women’s Club, Advisory Board for the Master of Leadership Public Administration at Mid-America Christian University, Tri-Cities Republican Women’s Club, Oklahoma City Republican Women’s Club, and the American Legislative Exchange Council. She is, also, a board member of the Advisory Council for BOTT Radio, a member of the Board of Trustees of the Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics, member of the Office of Personnel Management’s Employee Assistance Program Advisory Council, and member of the Advisory Board for HIRE (Help in Reaching Employment) at the Moore Norman Technology Center. Sally is also a member of the National Rifle Association (NRA).

    After her first session in office, Sally was voted “Outstanding Lawmaker of the Year 2005” by the Oklahoma Conservative Political Action Committee (OCPAC) for her conservative voting record. OCPAC also voted Sally “Runner Up Lawmaker of the Year 2005.” In April of 2008, Sally was honored as the first ever recipient of the Family Research Council’s (FCR) “Champion of Faith, Family, and Freedom Award.” OCPAC has again voted Sally “Runner Up Lawmaker of the Year 2008.”

    Sally enjoys spending time with her family, reading, and playing golf, and watching football.

  • R&S: Why aren't churches taxed in the us?

    They're a business just like any other. They make a lot of money off of it too.

    I know a pastor who makes 100k at a church with roughly 200 members. Works 3 days a week max if he visits a retirement community or attends a funeral (unlikely with the amount of members)

    Anyways. I see a lot of churches giving money to advance their political agendas etc.

    So why are they different than any other business?

    Would taxing churches incentivize them to donate to charities (in lieu of giving to the gov)?
