[DATA] Opinions Thread -- legal marijuana, abortion, and universal healthcare

I'm just saying no to uniforms

I think that particular plank is told from the perspective of "those who are directly affected by uniforms don't like it," not so much from the perspective of the students themselves

that's what I see from it, anyway

Yeah but then you're generalizing the entire student group under one opinion, when there's plenty of debate within the group

Eh, whatever, it doesn't matter. At this point I'm just over-brown townyzing something that's just meant to inspire discussion, not pose an actual argument

pro-animal testing
anti-school uniforms (though at a legal level, I don't give a stuff whether a school does or doesn't have uniforms)
churches are businesses and should be taxed as businesses

[Insert Name Here]

Animal testing: Yes
School Uniforms: forget NO. My old school had this and it loving sucks ass. Dress code is fine, but uniforms? forget TO THE NO
Church Tax: Yes, no tax pls

[Jairo]

Church Tax: Yeh

yes to exemption or yes to no exemption?

[Daswiruch]

yes to exemption or yes to no exemption?

yes

[Path]

Churches are run mostly on donations from their members and shouldn't be taxed.

[Jairo]

yes

[Path]

What is it with all these people that think churches should be taxed? They're holy institutions that aim to preach to people in need for free and the people who work at churches are mainly volunteers and people payed off of donations. Why would you ever tax an institution that doesn't even have its workers on a paycheck?

they're businesses. they collect money in exchange for services. they should be taxed.

pro animal testing involving animals bred in labs

completely against school uniforms

churches shouldn't have any tax exemptions

they're businesses. they collect money in exchange for services. they should be taxed.

EDIT: only if they're a large-scale church, not the small churches on the side of every street

[hillkill]

i honestly don't care about animal testing

if your school wants to have a uniform, then let them i guess. i think the reason they do it is because if we all look the same, then we see less difference in each other, which promotes less aggressiveness and unity.

everybody should pay taxes, no exceptions.

Donations aren't considered a legal exchange for goods or services, and cannot be taxed.

fair point, but bigger churches that do actually sell stuff (concessions, souvenirs, etc) should be taxed
