FLEECED

When I was a kid I worked at the local drugstore.

I remember that when a clergyman came in we were to call Tommy the pharmacist and let him handle the customer.

The reason was that the clergy were always looking for handouts.

They wanted to get their stuff for free or at least with a steep discount.

Tommy was the first line of defense against it.

Our boss, Ma Williams, was a softy. She was unable to say no. Then, when the clergyman would leave she would swear (and swear vividly) up and down never to do it again.

Nothing has changed.

Churches are a business but the continue to look for handouts and get them!

It is just more brazen now.

Look at this shit:

In God’s Name: As Religious Programs Expand, Disputes Rise Over Tax Breaks

My dad ran the local supermarket. It was a chain. The same "mealy mouthed bastards" would come to him for financial breaks. He gave no quarter.

You can see how I grew up to be an apostate; 'mealy mouthed bastards' and all.

We are paying for this. Whether we are in the flock or not we are getting fleeced.
