Far more helpful than releasing a statement on its finances would be for the LDS church to release its financial reports. What are they hiding from even their own members?

Go Bloomberg!!! You did an Awesome job covering this story! Congratulations to Hawaii who realized the true nature of the business and charges LDS taxes on the "Polynesian Cultural Center" as a FOR-PROFIT business! When are the rest of the states and Federal Government going to Wake up and make LDS pay taxes on all earnings from their Multi-Biillion $ Business ventures and stop chasing the little Mom & Pop shops, who are barely getting by, then right out of business! SHAME on LDS,Catholics and any of the rest of these groups dripping in Gold & Wealth, saying it's all in the name of JESUS, while people are homeless & starving all around them!! Very Sincerely, Kimberly
