If you are against the wealth tax on the ultra rich, then please suggest alternative to the problem that people who are increasing their wealth by tens or hundreds of millions of dollar per year never have taxable events and so never pay taxes.

The foundational principal of the Southern Baptists is that slavery is God's way, and there's nothing wrong with abusing your chattel slaves any way you like. So now Southern Baptists insist in the face of hundreds of convictions that there is no problem with sexual abuse by Southern Baptist clergy
