[quote=Anonymous]Haven't read the thread,OP, but two things:1). A tax exemption is not a subsidy unless you assume all money belongs to the government until it decides what to let you keep in the form of tax exemptions. I think the presumption has historically been the other way. 2) tax exemptions for cartable institutions, including universities, for example, go back to the founding. The rule is enshrined in many if the first state constitutions, as I recall. Tax exempt status for religious institutions also promotes first amendment principles as ling as there is no discrimination between religions.[/quote]
