GWhere are the government really getting taxes from?

Question

A little boy wanted $100.00 badly and prayed for two 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 the President. The President was so amused and touched that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy a $5.00 bill, thinking this would appear to be a lot of money to the little boy.
The little boy was delighted with the $5.00 and sat down to write a thank you note to God. It read:

Dear God,
Thank you very much for sending me the money, however, I noticed that for some reason you had to send it through Washington D.C. and, as usual, those b.....ds deducted $95.00.

Answer 1

When asking money, do not course the request to politicians because they will deduct the total amount from the government but will give only a little of it to the constituents.
