Tax Guru-Ker$tetter Letter

Life Imitating Art

In the Beatles' TaxMan song (part of which has been used by H&R Block recently in commercials), they sang about the government taxing everything possible. It was intended as an extreme parody. However, sooner or later, such things come true.

In its normal status as trend setter for the rest of the country, the People's Republic of California (my former home) is currently working on new taxes on several things, including bullets, soda cans, alcohol and cigarettes. Other States learn from the Left Coast; so don't feel safe just because you don't live there.

As a side note, I was using Google to track down the lyrics of TaxMan, and came across this site that has the lyrics to every Beatles song. It's a very comprehensive list. There is even an alternative take of TaxMan.
