Tax poem,,sad but true
The Tax Poem
At first I thought this was funny...then I
realized the awful truth of it.
Be sure to read all the way to the end!
Tax his land, Tax his bed,
Tax the table at which he's fed.
Tax his tractor, Tax his mule,
Teach him taxes Are the rule.
Tax his work, Tax his pay,
He works for peanuts anyway!
Tax his cow, Tax his goat,
Tax his pants, Tax his coat.
Tax his ties, Tax his shirt,
Tax his work, Tax his dirt.
Tax his tobacco, Tax his drink,
Tax him if he Tries to think.
Tax his cigars, Tax his beers,
If he cries Tax his tears.
Tax his car, Tax his gas,
Find other ways To tax his ass.
Tax all he has Then let him know
That you won't be one till he has no dough.
When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till He's good and sore.
Then tax his coffin, Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in Which he's laid.
Put these words Upon his tomb,
'Taxes drove me To my doom...'
When he's gone, Do not relax,
Its time to apply The inheritance tax.

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, and
our nation was the most Prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest
middleclass in the World, and Mom stayed home
to raise the kids.
What happened? Can you spell 'politicians?'
And I still have to 'press 1' for English!
I hope this goes around THE USA at least 100 times!!!!!
YOU can help!
GO AHEAD - - - BE AN AMERICAN!

Shadow, better stay away from New Jersey. We have all of those taxes listed plus "user fees" for almost everything.
It's ironic that the poll tax was declared illegal years ago because it prevented the poor from exercising their right to vote yet in Jersey we can keep the poor off of public beaches with a beach tag fee. My little brain can't discern the difference.
Yeah,,,,,Joisey and Ill a noise arn't on my list of go to's 🙂
Don't you guys also have Local option taxes up there?
Heh,Heh,

Lonnie - we have taxes on taxes. Our pols can't ever seem to be able to generate enough money for our state (especially for THEIR salary raises, health benefits, and retirement!!!)
At any rate, weren't those police Harley hacks impressive in the inaugration parade?
Didn't watch the Inauguration or the Parade.
Lonnie
Stop whining! You Americans don't know from taxes! LOL!
PS: Watching the inaugeration I wish I was American!
Each and everyone of you should be proud regardless of your political preference. Bravo USA!
And we sue our presidents as long they are not from the actually governing party...
