Should all non profits be taxed as well?

I'm not sure. But my gut says no, all non profits should not be taxed. I'm no expert in this field but I think non profits have to go public with their records. Not sure churches have the same accountability.

Churches don't pay tax on their increase but Joel Osteen and any other pastor is required to pay on the income they are given by the church. Any employee of the church pays tax just like anyone at a private or public company. I don't think most people on here realize that.

That's an interesting point. But having a little experience will an LLC I can imagine there are a million ways to funnel the income to Joel and avoid additional taxes.. Expense accounts etc..

He can probably lease a car through the church and the church could own the house as well. The problem is that the board of directors could vote him out and he would have nothing. I'm sure he gets audited every year as well.
