Love that advertising! Somehow the SALT cap is subsidizing other states. I fail to see the logic that payments to NY and to the Feds is somehow a subsidy to low tax states. Ain't politics great?!
I think His Holiness will get off easy when it comes to the IRS. Clerics get a lot of odd deductions and expenses not available to laymen, and on top of that I think his meals & housing aren't taxable for the same reason BAS and BAH aren't taxable to military taxpayers.
He's been dealing with the situation all these decades as it is, from Peru, on pretty much nothing. I believe the Pope is just getting his expenses covered. It's not like he really gets to own stuff for himself. It belongs to the Church.

It's all just politics, and they're trying to see what sticks.
