There's something wrong when Tax Day is also Holy Saturday, but there's nothing we can do about it (though I think, technically, Tax Day is April 17th this year). In any event, The Patriot Post sent these quotes that help lessen the brutal irony:
"Every time we talk about these taxes we get around to the idea of 'from each according to his capacity and to each according to his needs'. That's socialism. It's written into the Communist Manifesto. Maybe we ought to see that every person who gets a tax return receives a copy of the Communist Manifesto with it so he can see what's happening to him." –T. Coleman Andrews ++ "The power to tax involves the power to destroy." –Justice John Marshall ++ "What is the difference between a taxidermist and a tax collector? The taxidermist takes only your skin." –Mark Twain ++ "The income tax has made liars out of more Americans than golf." –Will Rogers ++ "Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it." –Ronald Reagan
