Thanks for clearing that up, Gary... what's 6 extra days of salary to the
Federal, State, and Local governments - and School Districts - we can't
forget those property taxes :)

Cheers,
Joe

Add to that - sales tax, various commodity taxes (e.g., gasoline,
alcohol, cigarettes, etc.) and the incognito taxes (e.g., auto
licensing fees, DOG LICENSES!?, homeowner association fees,
etc.).

Maybe that "Tax freedom day" should be pushed a little closer to
Great Britain's.
