Shoe by Gary Brookins and Susie MacNelly for August 18, 2019

You didn’t “give” it to them, Shoe. They took it from you at the point of a gun.

You can be lien-ed on for your for the money.

That question should be “what did you do with all the money I gave you this year?!”

Didn’t blow it on a wall.

PLEASE don’t ask. . .

Friggin’ government.

And on no account must you forget that 86 cents.

those golf trips to Mara Lago don’t pay for themselves, you know

gave it away to all of Trump’s rich buddies.

My husband does our taxes. A few years ago the IRS said we had underpaid and owed $10,000. My stubborn husband said we did not and he and the IRS argued by letter for several months as the amount we “owed” grew. Finally we got another IRS letter which admitted they had made a mistake, but we did owe $150. I said Hurray! Send them a check! Husband (did I mention he is stubborn) said no we did not owe them any more money. The IRS eventually did notify us that we did not owe them any more money. One year they even said we’d overpaid and sent us a check. Which, of course, my husband said was their mistake and sent it back. So, in my opinion, the IRS people are not evil. Their computers may be.

Golfing at Mar a largo costs.

Betsy DeVos needs that 14th yacht.

Asking where your tax dollars went is like inquiring about the ingredients in your favorite sausage, Cosmo. You’ll be happier and sleep better not knowing.

maybe if enough people who pay taxes actually knew – there might be change in how they do spend it?? one can dream!?!

“We bought golf balls which are mostly in water hazards around the country.”

This strip of course uses birds as its main characters. That being said, you don’t often see any of those birds flying.

Good question.
