Taxes...Ethiopian style

There's been a lot of talk around our house about taxes as of lately. This has actually been good conversation about how things work. How do we get those nice streets we drive on? Who pays for public schools (even though we pay and don't use) etc. etc. Jameson didn't get it. So I tried to explain that for every dollar we make, we have to give a part of it to the governent. We are taxed. In that typical saucey style only Jameson could muster up, she put her hand on her hip and said:
"Who are they to attack us?" (Get it? A Tax us?)
God Love Her!
