Al, your lemonade metaphor not only shows your total lack of class, but is also getting rather old and tired. Try some new lines if you can think of any that are both amusing and not reflective of your depravity.

As for whether it's my money or the government's, you go on believing what you want, but it is my money until my tax return shows that I owe it to Uncle Sam. The grocer analogy is just plain stupid - it is not even remotely the same situation. And there being a deficit right now doesn't change the basic fact of whose property the money is. By your logic, at tax refund is a gift from the government or some poor person to the wage earner who was overwithheld. Bulls#!t.
