God and taxes.

A little boy wanted $100 very badly and prayed for weeks, but nothing happened.

Then he decided to write God a letter requesting the $100.00. When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to God, USA, they decided to send it to President Obama.

Obama was so amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy a $5 bill. He thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy.

The little boy was delighted with the $5 bill and sat down to write a thank-you note to God, which read:

Dear God:

Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you sent it through Washington, D.C., and those idiots took $95 in taxes.

 

(Got this one in an email forward, and chuckled enough that I thought it worthy of sharing.)
