Tax
Return
As heard on The Phil Valentine Show
A
man computed his taxes for 2000 and discovered that he
owed
$3,407. He packaged up his payment and included this letter:
Dear IRS,
Enclosed
is my 2000 tax return & payment. Please take note of
the
attached article from USA Today newspaper. In the article,
you will
see that the Pentagon is paying $171.50 for hammers and
NASA has
paid $600.00 for a toilet seat.
Please
find enclosed four toilet seats (value $2400) and six hammers
(value $1029). This brings my total payment to $3429.00.
Please note
overpayment of $22.00 and apply it to the "Presidential
Election Fund,"
as noted on my return. Might I suggest you the send the
above mentioned
fund a "1.5 inch screw." (See attached article...HUD
paid $22.00 for a 1.5
inch phillips head screw.)
It has
been a pleasure to pay my tax bill this year, and I look
forward
to paying it again next year.
Sincerely,
A satisfied
taxpayer
