TAXES
3/4/2007 5:16:01 AM
Dear Internal Revenue Service:

Enclosed you will find my 2006 tax return showing that
I owe $3,407.00
in taxes.

Please note the attached article from the USA Today
newspaper dated 12
November, wherein you will see the Pentagon
(Department of Defense) is
paying $171.50 per hammer and NASA has paid $600.00
per toilet seat.

I am enclosing for (4) toilet seats (valued @ $2,400.)
and six (6)
hammers (valued @ $1,029.) which I secured at Home
Depot, bringing my
total remittance to $3,429.00. Please apply the
overpayment of $22.00
to the “Presidential Election Fund,” as noted on my
return. You can do
this inexpensively by sending them one (1) 1.5”
Phillips Head screwdriver,
(see aforementioned article from USA Today newspaper
detailing how
H.U.D. pays $22.00 each for 1.5” Phillips Head
screwdrivers).
One screw is enclosed for your convenience.

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

Hi Craftie,

YEP, I've read articles where the government has paid tremendous amounts of money for items worth much less. NO wonder we have such a LARGE deficit here in the US.  Love the way "A Satisfied Taxpayer" made ammends with the FEDS. Wouldn't it be nice to do so without being hammered by the IRS. Thanks for the info
