The locals are fleeced, not knowing Radical Official Scientology has amassed a billion dollars in their Building fund. They take out 2nd Trust Deeds and give it to the Church.
Then the Church of Scientology International (CSI) owns the real estate and RENTS it back to the local Church. This money is scammed off the top before staff pay or any other vital needs.
Local. Orgs do not contribute one dime to medical needs of the staff. Run like a business, the Church takes all the privileges of "Religious exemption" while mis-treating staff who get a pittance for pay for long hours. The money goes up the food chain and the lower level fish barely make it.
