[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This premise is so dumb - what is your point?[/quote]
I'm pretty sure OP is a poster who regularly argues every few months in the Private Schools forum that private schools should not be entitled to 501(c) tax-exempt status.  The details of her argument shift around, but it usually revolves around the idea that private schools aren't really benefiting all of society equally, so therefore they should not benefit from tax-exempt status.  Other times, she's argued that DC-based private schools should lose their exemption from DC taxes, since some portion of their students come from Maryland.

She recently tried to revive this argument on some Private Schools thread, and someone told her to buzz off, since her comment had nothing to do with the discussion at hand.  Quite frankly, many people who post in Private Schools have heard her argument several times, and repeatedly shot it full of logical holes.  She's not getting any traction there.

I'm guessing this is her again, and that she's just wrapping her favorite 501(c) argument in a Big Bird blanket, so she can try to start the discussion here on the Political Discussion forum.

BOOM! You caught me being involved and interested in tax policy and its impact on the next generation. Now that I am fully exposed as a member of society, want to add something other than snark.

I did post something yesterday in the private school thread and was very politely asked to post here. I nuanced my question since I thought perhaps all of my questions were a bit too overwhelming? Thank you so much for the "shout out!" Also, I am so sorry to inform you I am not your previous poster who posted on this topic ever. (Maybe there two people with the same idea?) My questions and my right to post them are as valid as your right to troll, hunt and kill your prey. Aren't you in the education business? Strange. I am personally familiar with your writing style and your prose. If we do in fact know each other, I am disappointed because I really liked your DC hanging at my house with my DC. I will not allow my DC to hang out with bullies.[/quote]
