Tax for Thee, Not for Me

Looking out of the Long Gallery at Worstall Towers, surveying the rolling acres, I can see that the nights have started to draw in. It is also an even numbered year, so that must mean there is an election in the offing. Time to gird the loins and hoot derision at our enemies.

Did you know that if you feel you are not paying enough tax you can simply send a check to Uncle Sam? To say thank you for all of the blessings that have been showered upon your grateful and smiling countenance? Indeed you can and the address is here:

Gifts to the United States U.S. Department of the Treasury Credit Accounting Branch 3700 East-West Highway, Room 6D37 Hyattsville, MD 20782

Here ya go. Next time one of your liberal friends or colleagues waxes on about tax cuts, give them the address above and tell them to "Put up or Shut Up!'

Heh heh heh. When the rebates started happening in 2001, I found this address and ran off copies and put it on the chair of every single liberal co-worker who had belittled the rebate.

Not surprisingly, not a single one of them sent in a single dime.

Although I *did* talk someone in HR into sending out an e-mail to everyone that the United Way would accept money over and above their payroll deductions, with the added bonus that it's tax-deductible.

No one ever indicated to her that they took her up on the offer, either.
