Letter to the IRS – Oh, if only paying our federal income tax were actually this easy …
Attn: IRS
Enclosed is my current tax return & payment.
Please take note of the attached article from the USA Today newspaper. In the article, you will see the Pentagon is paying $171.50 for hammers and NASA has paid $600.00 for a toilet seat.
Please find enclosed four toilet seats (value $2400) and six hammers (value $1029). This brings my total payment to $3429.00.
Please note the overpayment of $22.00 and apply it to the ‘Presidential Election Fund,’ as noted on my return. Might I suggest you the send the above mentioned fund a 1.5 inch screw.’ (See attached article…HUD paid $22.00 for a 1.5 inch phillips head screw.)
It has been a pleasure to pay my tax bill this year, and I look forward to paying it again next year.
Sincerely,
A satisfied taxpayer
