Title: Catholic Church Loses Some Privileges.
Post by: Goaticus on February 18, 2012, 12:18:29 PM
Italy is going to start taxing the Catholic Church on some of its non-religious properties. This includes things like rental properties and commercial holdings like shopping malls. A Church would still be exempt, but a Chapel that also operates a hostel would not.

Ah, the UK is starting to catch up with features of US tax law that came in under Regan.
