Trick or Treat

Keith Hennessey:

My former White House colleague Tevi Troy suggested the following method for turning children into lifelong tax cutters.

  1. Make each of your kids spread his or her Halloween candy out on the kitchen table.
  2. Take one-third of it.
  3. Say, “That’s called TAXES.”
  4. Repeat each Halloween.
But how to get the message across without actually doing this. Tricky.
