A thrifty young fellow named Kevin, who
Was filing with Internal Revenue,
When the bottom line showed
All the money he owed,
Admitted: "I'm rich and I never knew."
Happy Tax Day to all those who didn't realize how much money they had until the IRS wanted to take it away from them.

My wife often cheers on the President when he argues the rich have to pay more, yet finds it surprising when I remind her that he's talking about us!
