The average Catholic family contributes $386 annually to its church. The average Assemblies of God family contributes $1,696 to its church. That isn't a rich denomination either. No wonder the nuns want the government to use its power to beat more money out of the populace to do good. It might be easier than getting Catholics to contribute more. That might be a little unfair because a lot of Catholics pay tuition for their kids and thus save taxpayers a bundle.

I don't have any problem with restoring the taxes on the rich to help balance the budget but which president extended that Bush mistake? The Ryan budget does not balance the budget though. It only slows down the rate of growth. Why don't the nuns get after Democrats and Republicans to reverse NAFTA and implements some import taxes to encourage the demand for more US jobs? Or instead try to implement single payer health care and social programs at the state level to be consistent with the 10th Amendment since she mentioned the Constitution.

Sounds like a fun road trip anyway. Hey sisters, Please mention all the money being spent on wars as you tour. I missed the part explaining how the US can go on with annual $1T deficits or even $.65T deficits with the rich paying what they did pre-Bush/Obama.
