Death & Taxes


On this Tax Day, I cannot think of a better time to rail against the government. So, let’s go. “Nothing is certain in this world, except death and taxes.” This quote is attributed to Benjamin Franklin. I frequently find that it’s accrual world, where a fine is a tax for doing wrong, while a tax is a fine for doing well. I have often been asked, what’s the best way to teach your children about taxes? Eating a third of their ice cream ought to do it. And in conclusion, people who cheat on their taxes disgust me. This is not the world I want to raise my 27 dependents in.
