This may not satisfy you. If that is the case, then you are going to have to delve deeper into the history of this country to understand why this tax exemption was set up.

What I have just said might also not satisfy you. Perhaps you came here figuring I would answer all your questions. So, can I ask you a question?

Why are churches tax exempt? Why are nonprofit corporations tax exempt? Can you provide me with a quick and satisfying answer without a historical and sociological explanation?

Fine, but I’m still not happy about this!

My main purpose here was to address the claim that “Indigenous peoples don’t pay taxes.” It isn’t an accurate statement at all, and I hope you understand this better now. The various justifications for the narrow tax exemption that does exist are more of a historical and philosophical discussion that can be had elsewhere or at another time.

If you had anywhere near the amount of coffee I’ve ingested while writing this, you’ll probably appreciate this being wrapped up now! May I suggest a break before the next chapter?
