Wilbur G. Henderson, IRS Agent:
Now, Mr. Vanderhoff, that's a very serious thing, not filing an income tax return.
Grandpa Martin Vanderhoff:
Now, suppose I do pay you this money; mind you, I don't say that I'm going to, but, just for the sake of argument; what's the government going to do with it?
Wilbur G. Henderson, IRS Agent:
What do you mean?
Grandpa Martin Vanderhoff:
Well, what do I get for my money? For instance, if I go into a department store and buy something, why, there it is! I can see it. Well, what are they gonna give me?
Wilbur G. Henderson, IRS Agent:
Why the government gives you everything! It protects you!
Grandpa Martin Vanderhoff:
From what?
Wilbur G. Henderson, IRS Agent:
Well, invasion! How do you think the government's gonna keep up the army and navy with all those battleships?
Grandpa Martin Vanderhoff:
Battleships? The last time we used battleships was in the Spanish-American War. And what did we get out of that? Cuba - and we gave that back. Why, I wouldn't mind paying for something sensible.
Wilbur G. Henderson, IRS Agent:
Something sensible? What about Congress and the Supreme Court and the President? We gotta pay them, don't we?
Grandpa Martin Vanderhoff:
Not with my money! No, sir.
