Taxes

Now is that time of the year when taxes are due, and there is some mumbling and complaining about this. However, it is a good thing to have taxes. Taxes pay for the police department, and the fire department, and many other important services. Without that kind of inferstructure society would not run at all smoothly. That is not to say that everything is perfect, just that it is a far sight better than anarchy ever could be. I used to work at PSU, as a building cleaner. Someone would occasionally paint/ draw symbols for anarchy in the elevator, and it was my job to clean up that sort of mess. It made me chuckle to think what this person would experience if there were a little anarchy in his life (I mean, if suddenly, the cleaning crew no longer cleaned up after him) Oh well, some of the best laughs come from some of the most annoying things. So if you are in the camp that is annoyed by taxes, think of something humorous about tax-day. You could even shock your co-workers with a suprise 'tax-day' party. That would be fun!

Well, when it comes to the anarchy person, if he knew no person would clean up after him, ever, maybe he would be better about painting things where he should not. Jesus was much closer to anarchy than to being a republican.
