A Few Tax Day Thoughts
All this useless activity is so that our politicians can look like They
Care by giving tiny tax breaks to all of their favorite people--that is

who least need them. Meanwhile, they waste time for the rest of us,
distort the economy, and require us to pay extra people to process tax
returns. It's lose-lose-lose all around unless you owned a seal-fur
farm between 1987 and 1991.
