Absolutely! Just as the right talks about enforcing the gun laws on-the-books, we need to enforce the tax laws. No doubt this is another reason Republicans don't want the IRS to finally be able to do its job.

I remember Bush senior's "A thousand Points of Light" program. It was just another way for the right to shirk their responsibility when in office. They knew the Constitution mandates promoting the general welfare of the people, but why do your actual JOB when you can export it to those not obligated to spend the money in a fair and equal way?

Redirection of government funds and tax-relief empowers religious leaders and ensures "Power to the People" is stifled. This is just one more way the right likes to pick the winners and losers. The winners are the ones that agree with their stifling ideology.

Organized religion to me has always been about controlling your will to be free. It's convincing people they must do as their god "says" or they will never be worthy. That tracks with Republicans thinking people at the top deserve IT ALL! I find that disgusting.
