Spending the State Tax Rebates
- Share via
I know that Deukmejian took a lot of heat for his tax rebate idea so I want to make sure he knows that his efforts were not wasted.
As my itemized list shows, I spent my rebate on pure necessities, not frivolous things such as improving the reading, writing and arithmetic skills of our children. No sirree, I put my rebate to good use:
L.A. Times bill
$11.40
12-pack of beer
5.69
Burger, fries, Coke
3.25
Gas
7.05
Cassette tape
3.50
Savings deposit
1.11
Total $32.00
Please print my letter so that I may extend my personal thanks to our governor for helping me make ends meet this month.
