I also have a fine oil painting of Thomas Jefferson in my well-appointed study. And in the bathroom I have a faded photograph in a plastic frame of the first IRS commissioner! Here's a great quote:

"I don't like the income tax. Every time we talk about these taxes we get around to the idea of 'from each according to his capacity and to each according to his needs'. That's socialism. It's written into the Communist Manifesto. Maybe we ought to see that every person who gets a tax return receives a copy of the Communist Manifesto with it so he can see what's happening to him". -- Former IRS Commissioner T. Coleman Andrews, May 25, 1956 in US. News & World Report
