Quote from: Jeff post_id=1074 time=1608732578 user_id=103I wonder how many millions Joel Osteen is going to get this time around?
Last time he got $4.4 mill.


How dare you question his holiness Osteen. He deserves every million he has and probably deserves all of your money too! Just ask Reko, he'll tell ya!


Silly response.

I don't want government redistributing money... period.

But Osteen would make better use of it... distributing it to the needy... far better than government bureaucrats.

Just a quick look at this bill shows how jacked up Congress's priorities are.

Do you think that a millionaire who is tax exempt should be receiving covid help?

Do you think it's in the form of cash for a man to profit, or for his charity to distribute?

$600 direct payments panned (meaning Trump wants Congress to work on getting $2,000 direct payments done. House will vote on it soon - maybe today?. Then Senate has to agree, which may be a problem)

Isn't going to happen. The oligarchy and swamp need to make the point that they are in control and the people need to shut up and accept the scraps they are willing to give.

I dunno, looks like his "charity" is doing pretty good.

Lol... he literally takes zero salary from his church... hasn't in a decade or so.

His wealth comes from books and personal endeavors.

I, personally, don't begrudge business owners, athletes and movie stars their great wealth.

He has given, literally, millions away to charity... and gone on hundreds of missions to poor lands to help less fortunate people.

It's a great house... and he's a wealthy man... I don't understand why anyone would look down on Osteen for his personal accomplishments?

You don't mind when they get millions of dollars in TAX MONEY that was stolen from the people at gunpoint?  You really approve of robbing the poor to pay the rich?

His Wiki says otherwise
QuoteRoyalties from Osteen's book sales, radio show, public speaking fees, and church collection reportedly generate $55 million per year


Why does a tax-exempt company (his church) need 4 million dollars in aid? I couldn't care less about his missions or his book sales or whether he likes pineapple on his pizza,but accepting millions in tax dollars for "aid" when he doesn't pay a dime in taxes? C'mon man.
