He is risen. My wife and I are devout Catholics. 

We were here when the state had an income tax and support the reinstatement. As someone perhaps more conservative than my wife, I believe that taxation can be done right and taxation can be done wrong. 

In the right way, we who pay taxes become job creators. We pay into the public economy, which provides services and whose salaries are then fed back into the private economy as the state and state workers spend their money. I also think that we have to go beyond canon law and each do our own part to help the poor but to also contribute to our neighborhoods.
