As you begin pulling out those receipts, the eraser and reading plain English tax instructions that Einstein couldn’t figure out, you’re going to need a good laugh. Here you go:
- I am proud to be paying taxes in the United States. The only thing is – I could be just as proud for half the money.
- People who complain about taxes can be divided into two classes: men and women.
- Like mothers, taxes are often misunderstood, but seldom forgotten.
- The best measure of a man's honesty isn't his income tax return. It's the zero adjust on his bathroom scale.
- Next to being shot at and missed, nothing is really quite as satisfying as an income tax refund.
- A tax loophole is something that benefits the other guy. If it benefits you, it is tax reform.
- Few of us ever test our powers of deduction, except when filling out an income tax form.
- What's the difference between a mosquito and an IRS agent? One is a bloodsucking parasite, the other is an insect.
- It would be nice if we could all pay our taxes with a smile, but normally cash is required.
- The government deficit is the difference between the amounts of money the government spends and the amount it has the nerve to collect.
- Taxes: Of life's two certainties, the only one for which you can get an automatic extension.
- What Mae West said about sex is true about taxes. All tax cuts are good tax cuts; even bad tax cuts are good tax cuts,
- The federal income tax system is a disgrace to the human race. - Jimmy Carter
If nothing else, it is good to know that a former President of the United States feels the same way about taxes as you. If only someone would agree to a flat tax, millions of Americans could dispense with the aggravation and stress of filing taxes each year.
