What does the church teach about taxation? In this episode, we talk about what the Catechism does (and doesn't) say about being a moral citizen in terms of finances. 

In the context of this podcast, we don't advocate for any particular political solution. Please don't send us hate mail! If you do, we'll read it on The Catch in a funny voice.
