The Magic of Money or; "Little Tommy Two-Step--the poem"

( Ed.note. I found this little poem slipped into an deposit envelope lying on the ground near the auto entrance to a local financial institution. I have faithfully reproduced it without alteration.)

Little Tommy Two Step.


His parents pay day care
for 8 hours and State and property taxes.
When little Tommy turns 4,
nothing changes, but presto-
-the miracle
--the school collects funds from taxes and gives some to the day care,
so the day care now receives payment---- TWICE--
for
little Johnny during the three hours they call 4-K--
and the parents pay----
TWICE----
once in the form of day care fees, and the other---
in the form of increased taxes.

It's so beautiful
It's so simple,
It's your money.



I wish
money would
fall on
me
like that!
How bout you?
