A Poem about Taxes

[VN Vet]

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,
Let's 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

CDL license Tax

I DO NOT THINK THIS IS STILL FUNNY, DO YOU?

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, and our nation was the most prosperous in the world.

We had not much if any national debt, had the largest middle class in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.

What in the heck 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!!!!

Here you go you explain taxes I'll try welfare.

Welfare Poem - oh boy you will love this

I cross ocean,

poor and broke,

Take bus,

see employment folk.



Nice man treat me

good in there,

Say I need to

see welfare.



Welfare say,

'You come no more,

We send cash

right to your door.'



Welfare checks,

they make you wealthy,

Medicaid it keep

you healthy!



By and by,

I get plenty money,

Thanks to you,

American dummy.



Write to friends

in motherland,

Tell them 'come

fast as you can.'



They come in turbans

and Ford trucks,

I buy big house

with welfare bucks



They come here,

we live together,

More welfare checks,

it gets better!



Fourteen families,

they moving in,

But neighbor's patience

wearing thin.



Finally, white guy

moves away,

Now I buy his house,

and then I say,

'Find more aliens

for house to rent.'

And in the yard

I put a tent.



Send for family

they just trash,

But they, too,

draw the welfare cash!

Everything is

very good,

And soon we

own the neighborhood.



We have hobby

it's called breeding,

Welfare pay

for baby feeding.



Kid's need dentist?

Wife's need pills?

We get free!

We got no bills!



American's crazy!

He pay all year,

To keep welfare

running here.



We think America

darn good place!

Too darn good for

the white man race.

If they no like us,

they can scram,

Got lots of room in Pakistan .



It is interesting that the federal government provides a

single refugee with a monthly allowance of $1,890.00

and each can also get an additional $580.00 in social assistance for a total of$2,470.00 .



This compares very well to a single pensioner who after contributing to the growth and development of America for 40 to 50 years can only receive a monthly maximum of $1,012.00 in old age pension and Guaranteed Income Supplement.



Maybe our pensioners should apply as refugees!



Lets send this to all Americans, so we can all be ticked off

and maybe we can get the refugees cut back to

$1,012 .00 and the pensioners up to $2,470 00 and enjoy some of the money we were forced to submit to the Government over the last 40 or 50 years.
