WATCH: Donald Duck Tells You To Pay Income Tax (TV Squad)
At a time when politicians are fighting over the mere suggestion that

pre-World War II).
Entitled "The New Spirit," in the video Donald Duck is brainwashed, er

an income tax.
"Your country is at war," the voice inside of the radio beckons. "Your country

"It's your taxes, my taxes, our taxes that run the factories -- American
factories -- working day and night. Factories making guns, machine guns, anti-
tank guns, long range guns. Guns! Guns! All Kinds of guns! Blast the
