Josh wrote and recorded his diary which was produced by Joe Richman. (13:00) NPR HAS A SPECIAL WEB SITE FOR THIS SERIES .. THE ADDRESS IS http://www.well.com/user/jkr/ CUTAWAY 1C 0:59 1D 7. TAX DAY - NPR's John Ydstie reports on "tax freedom day" the day the Tax Foundation tells us is the day we begin working for ourselves and not to pay taxes. This year the average American has to work until May 7th in order to satisfy his tax liabilites, according to the Foundation. But critics argue the concept of a tax freedom day makes little sense...since your taxes are used to provide services you use year-round.
