Scientology Finance are the policies employed in Church of Scientology organizations related to financial management, the purpose of which is defined by L. Ron Hubbard in HCOPL 1 May 1958 Issue II, titled "Financial Management": "''Purpose'': Makes certain the org makes money and continues in good credit." ==Policy on bill payment and creditors== From HCOPL 28 January 1965 "How to Maintain Credit Standing and Solvency" on page 5, Hubbard states: "''Only'' pay by this system: PAY EVERYTHING UP TO A DATE ALWAYS and no further." Hubbard states in this policy that collection actions by creditors accompanied by threat are only paid when threats are made in the future: "Government tax bills, water bills, occasionally rent or phone are sometimes accompanied by threats of vast action unless the whole bill is paid instantly. Still try to use the above system. But if you can't, pay it and retard other bills accordingly. And thereafter, don't pay that outfit's bill on any other terms than threatened trouble." In situations of dealing with a contractor, Hubbard gives special advice:"If a tradesman, despite the use of the above system, demands further payment or threatens suit, caution him that if he carries on this way you'll deal elsewhere. And carry out the threat. ''Never'' continue to use a private business firm after they become obnoxious about bills. Trade elsewhere. And say why." Hubbard asserts that if a creditor gets upset with non-payment by a Scientology organization, then the creditor is "gypping" the organization or is unwilling to do financing: "If you're using the above dateline system and a tradesman gets upset, then he is gypping you or he has too little finance to handle your account, so stop trading with him. Always make that an ironbound policy. Be very proud and haughty about bills. ''Never'' propitiate." Use of this policy has resulted in lawsuits brought against Scientology organizations for non-payment of bills.〔http://www.skeptictank.org/hs/cos-bill.htm Article by Jeff Jacobson〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scientology Finance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
