We Couldn't Have Said it Better Ourselves

Overheard at a local department store earlier today:

Child: "Mom, what does 'plus tax' mean?"

Mom: "It means we have to pay an extra tax."

Child: "What does that mean?"

Mom: "We live in Massachusetts, so we need to pay a little extra."

And that, in a nutshell, is what thousands of Massachusetts residents go through every single day.
