Taxes and their collectors - a tour of Uncle Sam's house

Color-full: As in both exterior and interior all painted in green, as it is, after all, the most Pay-triotic... 

First thing first: Prior to entering what's now, in many homes, called the "Great room" - the "Hobby Lobby" - where all the pics of those who lobbied for what has traditionally been euphemized as "Tax reforms" which has essentially euthanized our pay-check..."Just a reminder kid, of what got U.S. to where we are today...as in our debts and debtors..."

Collector room: Everyone has or should have...as in "have" and "have knots"..."Look over there at those shelves...see all the precious metals...and the ones next to them, sitting empty, which is a simple reminder of all those coins that we used to mint, and now are considered use-less so, now just collect dust bunnies..." 

Ad-jacent: "Come on in but be ready for action, as this is what we call the excise room, as in going out and collecting can be strenuous, as in taxing...your uncle's gotta' stay in tip, top shape..."

Code closet: "Don't bother going in there, it's over-filled with tariffs and other forms of excess taxes...my coat overflow eth, you know...?" 

"OK, levy see, have I left anything out...?" 

Wall hangings: The one that caught our eye..."Oh, that, now that takes us back to the beginning of this tour, as in the photo of the greatest uncle of U.S. all...the one and only Julius...whose count-enance reminds us all, especially one month to the day that he got his cum-upenance...Render unto Caesar...a nice rendering if I say so, myself…”

Have you paid your Uncle a visit...lately?
