Given the diversity of practices in different countries that have identified certain areas of activity as being more deserving of the government tax dollars foregone, I think this is something that governments should take into account.
Any budgeting exercise, as I mentioned to Mr. Brison, is one of making judgments. Where do the tax dollars best have a social impact? To simply forego, and let those people with the resources and inclination to donate—to give them a predominant vote—I think is wrong. I would suggest that governments should decide themselves where they think the tax dollars should go.
