There was programs before to help the poor by land giveaways and it helped America become stronger. ♡ :)

Even the words of God given promise to bless the nation of Israel for so doing, and giving assistance to the poor. ♡ :)

And God does not lie. ♡ :)

If I was to ask as Jesus Christ did in his days to those learned of the day:

"What is written in the law of Moses and in the writings of the Prophets that is the same law given today in the Book of Commandments", how many could answer? ♡ :)

And if the question was asked what in common does the "Law of Moses" the "Writings of the Prophets" the "Gospel of Jesus Christ in the New Testament" the "Gospel of Jesus Christ in the Book of Mormon" the law given in the "Book of Commandments or Doctrine and Covenants" and the "Constitution of the United States of America" how many learned and wise and noble could answer this question at the judgment bar of Christ? ♡ :)

Who can see eye to eye with Jesus Christ and God?

As it is written, "Who seeth these things and knoweth them?"

Good to come to know all these things. ♡ :)

Ask, seek and knock, even as Jesus Christ has said. ♡ :)

The law of surplus to be given to the poor remains, is not the 18,600,000 vacant homes surplus? ♡ :)

The perversion of equity spoken of by Micah needs to be unperverted.

The establishment of "Ordinances of Justice" can help.

The tax code can be amended to be more just, just ask Senator Orrin Hatch of Utah, and Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon, and Senator Mike Crapo of Idaho, who sit on the Committee of Congress to so do. ♡ :)

If you have influence with any of the potential candidates running for President of the United States of America, it would be good if you could talk with them about these things. ♡ :)

18,600,000 vacant homes, what will Jesus Christ have to say if some of these are yours because you would not give covenants and deeds that cannot be broken into the hands of the poor Saints sufficient for the support of their families?

Good to do as Jesus Christ has said. ♡ :)

You can make a difference.

Contact your representatives.

Request that homes be allowed to be given into the hands of the poor and needy among us in America, without any tax penalties for the givers nor the given, and even a deduction for the givers that they may be encouraged to do it again.

Become active in your government, as told to so do, in the Doctrine and Covenants, seeking to "do good" and assist in establishing the paths to dwell in, and repair of the breach in equity. ♡ :)

As well as amending the tax code to allow for homes to be given to the poor without any penalties, the homesteading act needs to be updated to protect a families home from being taken away for taxes or lawsuits.

"Ordinances of Justice" need to be sought out and passed for peace and goodwill one towards another as has been written and commanded. ♡ :)

Why have millions of dollars worth of vacant homes in the church portfolio?

Get these into the hands of the poor Saints sufficient for the support of their families as God has commanded.

You will be glad you did. ♡ :)

You really want to see a change start here:

https://www.jct.gov/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

See if your representatives of Congress is on this committee and contact them and ask for changes to the tax code to encourage the giving away to the poor of this nation some of these vacant homes. ♡ :)

And if your representatives is not on this committee then you may write an open letter to the committee as a whole if you wish for them all to consider together. ♡ :)

Think about this, there are over 3.5 million homeless people in America many who are veterans who almost lost their lives for this nation, can't this nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all actually so do with more than enough and to spare of 18,600,000 vacant homes?

Yes, yes they can. ♡ :)

Again to make a change to these things contact your representatives on this committee:

Let them know what you think about 18,600,000 vacant homes in America, when there are 3.5 million+ homeless Americans. ♡ :)

Again the two top leaders of the committee on taxes for the Congress of the United States of America are a Jew and a Latter Day Saint. Senator Orrin Hatch is LDS and Senator Ron Wyden is a Jew.

They will work together even though very few in Congress do that are a Republican and a Democrat.

This is a prime time and opportunity, to have this happen, if the people who they represent contact them, and ask them to make the changes needed, to distribute some of the 18,600,000 plus vacant homes in America, to the 3.5 plus million homeless individuals and families, without any penalties and to get a deduction for so doing, and to make it desirable to continue to so do.

Please help by contacting them-

I think you may be surprised that they just might give ear and consider it. ♡ :)

How could the government legally do this? These homes are not owned by the government, they are owned by the bankers.
Do you believe the government should have the right to confiscate private property? ... or course the government did bail out the bankers - maybe that should have been part of the bail-out agreement. :)

What should happen is that the price on these should drop until people can afford to buy them - that's how free market works. It's proof that we don't really have a free market.

It would be good if one of the Presidential candidates took up this issue and how they suggest it be taken care of where it housed those who needed it most. ♡ :)

Anyone contact Senator Orrin Hatch's office yet in Utah that can let us know how the meeting went?

:)

And remember this is just to let the wealthy who have many homes give them to the poor directly and receive a deduction for giving these homes and for the poor not to be given a penalty for receipt of a home. ♡ :)

Even the church has vacant homes they could, if they wished to, give to the poor, but tax penalties, over current maximum gifts allowed, would then need to be paid by the poor and needy who may not have funds to so do.

Good to seek these changes. ♡ :)

Impart of these vacant homes to Jesus Christ, for inasmuch as ye impart unto the least of these poor and needy among us, you will have given to Jesus Christ himself. ♡ :)

Even now this remains as a witness of the perversion of equity.

Good to return to keep the commandments of God. ♡ :)

This is a warning.

This should not be in America where there are so many people who have not anything but abject poverty.

The Lord has given Scriptures to know righteousness and justice and goodness and these things are an abomination before God.

Time to seek for the establishment of the "Ordinances of Justice". ♡ :)
