Nice one

A little boy wanted $50 very badly and prayed for weeks, but nothing happened.

Finally he decided to write God a letter requesting the $50.

When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to God, United States of America, they decided to forward it to the President as a joke.

The President was so amused that he instructed his aide to send the little boy $50.

The aide thought this would appear to be a lot of money ($50) to a little boy and did not want to spoil the kid. So he sent $20

The little boy was delighted with $20, and decided to write a thank you note to God, which read:

"Dear God: Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that you sent it through the White House and those donkeys deducted $30 as tax."
