Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 15, 2014

And now, as a result of this strip, super-rich people and libertarians will be buying bears.

Did Rat pick up his new pet on Wall Street.

It is a bear market, isn’t it?(I blame Stephan for that one – it has to show up sooner or later…)

“Where is security in the IRS building when you need them?”

“Understanding” = “easy to digest”.

The Brown Bear is one of the most omnivorous animals in the world with the potential of eating virtually any organism or object that they encounter – berries, grasses, roots, acorns, pine cones, mushrooms, salmon, crabs and clams, birds and eggs, marmots, ground squirrels, tax accountants, mice, voles, insects, grubs, or beehives.

Can I borrow your bear?

Have you been notified by the IRS that you owe $8 billion in back taxes? Our former IRS agents and their friendly bears can have that reduced to zero – NOTHING – in 5 minutes flat. Call today and see how much you can save.

It’s definitely not a bull market, but I can tell they’ve been here……….Oh, crap! Stepped in it again….

The super rich don’t need bears, they already have the tax system defeated.

I need a bear.

Speak softly and have a bear.

Today is THE day one doesn’t need to be in Dallas or Austin to be deep in the heart of taxes!

Maybe Calvin will rent you Hobbes for the audit.

Do teddy bears count?Maybe these bears are a protected species, so the feds can’t retaliate?

Now Rat and his friend need to visit the “In a wreck and need a check” lawyers. They are getting as bad as the political ads on Television and commercial radio.

Wait… they are one on same people…” We are Doooomed”, to quote Linus in “It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

According to the bear, IRS stands for I Ravage (public) Servants.

He must be a service bear. Or maybe a comfort bear. Either way, next stop Lois Lerner’s house!

Rat is simply exercising his 2nd Amendment right to be armed with a bear.

its true, the IRS doesn’t like bears, they like bulls!

I see.

I bet the bear could find a job working for IRS

Bears will go to homes now.

Understanding? Yeah right, terrorize ’em with a bear and you can be sure both you and he bear will soon be facing an audit. And it will be an such a terrible audit that even the lord of hell will be running away in terror. The bear two miles ahead of them.
