Hey Seeker long time no speak. I hope things are going okay for you.

You said:

> The Bethel allowances are not considered a salary, but merely living expense reimbursement.

I agree with Snowball. The law (in California, at least) that work can be paid for in either wages or room and board, or both. Either way, they are considered paid. The GB's "living expenses" are monetarily taken care of, which is actually the purpose of "minimum wage"- enough to cover living expenses according to cost of living. I don't think you have to have luxuries to be considered a paid worker.

On the other hand, I do agree that this statement isn't something to get all worked up over. Besides, the WTS has more explicit lies in their literature itself.
