Dear IRS - Actual Letter


February 16, 2009, 2:36 PM

Actual 'Letter to the Editor' from the February 5th
edition of the
Wichita FallsTimes Record News....

Dear IRS,

I am sorry to inform you that I will not be able to pay
taxes owed April 15, but all is not lost..

I have paid these taxes: accounts receivable tax, building
permit tax, CDL tax, cigarette tax, corporate income tax,
dog licence tax, federal income tax, unemployment tax,
gasoline tax, hunting licence tax, fishing licence tax,
waterfowl stamp tax, inheritance tax, inventory tax, liquor
tax, luxury tax, medicare tax, city, school and county
property tax (up 33 percent last 4 years), real estate tax,
social security tax, road usage tax, toll road tax, state
and city sales tax, recreational vehicle tax, state
franchise tax, state unemployment tax, telephone federal
excise tax, telephone federal state and local surcharge tax,
telephone minimum usage surcharge tax, telephone state and
local tax, utility tax, vehicle licence registration tax,
capitol gains tax, lease severance tax, oil and gas
assessment tax, Colorado property tax, Texas, Colorado,
Wyoming, Oklahoma and New Mexico sales tax, and many more
that I can't recall but I have run out of space and
money.

When you do not receive my check April 15, just know that
it is an honest mistake. Please treat me the same way you
treated Congressmen Charles Rangle, Chris Dodd, Barney Frank
and ex-Congressman Tom Dashelle and, of course, your boss
Timothy Geithner. No penalties and no interest.

P.S. I will make at least a partial payment as soon as I
get my stimulus check.
