  • And there was that famous reply that boxer Joe Louis gave when a sportswriter asked, “Who hit you the hardest during your ring career?” His reply: “Uncle Sam.”
  • People don’t like tax collectors. Things haven’t changed as much as you think. Archeologists uncovered a 3,000-year tablet in Iraq.

  • A song written by the Beatles in the 1960s said this, “Let me tell you how it will be, there’s one for you, nineteen for me, cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman.

If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet.”
  • “There are only two things in life that are guaranteed: death and taxes.” ~ My Dad
