  1. Great cartoons. But I don’t like the Income Taxes. They should be abolished and replaced with flat federal sales taxes or wheel taxes where everyone pays, including the deadbeats.

  2. My own favorites of this group would be number 1 at the top by Martha Blanchard: such a romantic proposal. Number 7 also by Fred Surace. A wealthy “bum” being outed by his chauffeur at the IRS office. Ouch!
