Your Tax Dollars and the Internet
If the Internet was made with my tax dollars, why must I pay to use iteach month?

Any fees you pay for online access are actually donations to a fund to deprogram people brainwashed by non-stop browsing. In fact there’s a secret treatment center hidden in the brown, scrubby hills of Southern California, dedicated to the problem. You’ll end up there eventually if you’re not careful. Some people think the Internet is a conspiracy to enslave the populace, just like fluoride in the drinking water or daytime television. Of course these people are merely deluded. And of course I used your tax dollars when I invented the Internet. I use them to finance all my work.
