Death, Taxes and Entry Wounds

Warren Buffett said Wednesday that Congress should consider giving lower-income families a $1,000 annual tax credit rather than repealing the federal estate tax. Whoever said: "Nothing in life is certain but death and taxes," forgot the postmortem insertion. You may leave everyone behind when you die, but at least the government is still behind you in some Necrophilia way.

As if the astounding amount of increased taxes you've paid in your life hadn't driven you to drink overtaxed alcohol and in the end killed you with its overpriced health care, that your overtaxed self can now not afford. Then, you have to put up with the lurking government deviant in the dark corner basement of the morgue, whose first pumping to you wont be embalming fluids. You know what, if you've gotten to the end of this life with a fistful of bloodied dollars, the last person who should get it is the government. They should be penalized for taxing you to death and killing you early. If they were really smart they wouldn't tax you at all until after you die. Then, you'd make all this money and live really long doing it and then molest you, when you die. Of course the Health Care lobby would be against that too, they need money now. Ever wonder how many Doctors invest in McDonalds Corp?

Well I suppose its fitting, tightly that is. You end up catching, instead of pitching with the government all your life and all they want is to poke at you one last time for sentimental reasons and the summation of what you've always meant to them. My will states that during my stay at the morgue I want mood lighting, candles and a cigarette. Even though I'm dead, at least I'll be stiff for the reach around.

Meanwhile god will be telling me the true religion game show answer behind door number 2 was: Flyfishing and now I'm going to hell for sure. Its Okay, I lived in Utah for 20 years, eternity in Hell is easy.
