A Tax Poem

Post by Drifter »

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 done
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.

Accounts Receivable Tax
Building Permit Tax
CDL license Tax
Cigarette Tax
Corporate Income Tax
Dog License Tax
Excise Taxes
Federal Income Tax
Federal Unemployment Tax (FUTA)
Fishing License Tax
Food License Tax
Fuel Permit Tax
Gasoline At x (44.75 cents per gallon) Gross Receipts Tax Hunting License Tax
Inheritance Tax Inventory Tax IRS Interest Charges IRS Penalties (tax on top
of tax) Liquor Tax Luxury Taxes Marriage License Tax Medicare Tax Personal
Property Tax Property Tax Real Estate Tax Service Charge Tax Social Security
Tax Road Usage Tax Sales Tax Recreational Vehicle Tax School Tax State Income
Tax State Unemployment Tax (SUTA) Telephone Federal Excise Tax Telephone
Federal Universal Service Fee Tax Telephone Federal, State and Local
Surcharge Taxes Telephone Minimum Usage Surcharge Tax Telephone Recurring and
Non-recurring Charges Tax Telephone State and Local Tax Telephone Usage
Charge Tax Utility Taxes Vehicle License Registration Tax Vehicle Sales Tax
Watercraft Registration Tax Well Permit Tax Workers Compensation 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 middle class

in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.
What in the hell 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 it get there!!!!

GO AHEAD - - - BE AN AMERICAN!!!!!!

And it really does make you think what happened to our beloved country.
Let us make war, since evidently, you have found peace intolerable.

no doubt - we should have a tea party like "the Boston Tea Party". They were opposed to taxation without representation. Ooooopsie.... Taxation with representation..... terrible indeed. :tongue:

Exactly.. And what exactly does the federal government provide that you couldn't get yourself if you had the dough?

I paid 14 thousand dollars in taxes this year while my sister got back 7 thousand dollars more than she paid in.
