For those of you who think it's silly to pay out a baby bonus and then take
back a large chunk of it as income tax, how about this one:  federal
government departments have to pay federal sales tax!  The only reason I
can see for this is to make it look to the departments like they are being
given more funds by initially allocating them more money and then quietly
taking back some of it to be allocated again.
