Little Boy Gets Taxed

A little boy was hoping that he could get $100 so that he could buy himself a bike. For weeks he prayed – but he did not receive any money.

That’s when he decided to write God and ask for the money.

When the postmasters saw the letter addressed to God, USA they chose to send it off to the President.

The President was amused and thought it was so cute that he told his secretary to send the little boy $5. Knowing that this amount would seem like a lot to such a young boy.

The little boy was delighted with the $5.00 bill and sat down to write a thank-you note to God, which read:
Dear God:
Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you sent it through Washington, DC., and they deducted $95.00 in taxes.
