Paying Taxes...What a Bummer.

Today during JA, some of us were chosen to work for the government as teachers, firefighters, police officers, etc.

The rest of us worked at Sweet O Donut Factory.

The donut workers were paid $5 for their hard work.


The donut workers were told by the tax collector that they had to give two of their dollars to her to pay taxes.

Some people even hid under the table so they wouldn't have to pay!

Then...the unthinkable happened! The tax collector gave the donut workers' dollars TO THE GOVERNMENT WORKERS!

They thought they were really something...until the tax collector came for their money too!

We decided we're just going to stay kids and play with stickers and never get mixed up in all this tax stuff.
