I'm sure some, maybe all have seen this, but I thought I would share:
Tax his land,
Tax his wage,
Tax his bed in which he lays.
Tax his tractor,
Tax his mule,
Teach him taxes is the rule.
Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.
Tax his ties,
Tax his shirts,
Tax his work,
Tax his dirt.
Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he tries to think.
Tax his booze,
Tax his beers,
If he cries,
Tax his tears.
Tax his bills,
Tax his gas,
Tax his notes,
Tax his cash.
Tax him good and let him know
That after taxes, he has no dough.
If he hollers,
Tax him more,
Tax him until he's good and sore.
Tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in which he lays.
Put these words upon his tomb,
"Taxes drove me to my doom!"
And when he's gone,
We won't relax,
We'll still be after the inheritance TAX!!

CDL License 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 happened? Can you spell 'politicians!'
And I still have to "press
1" for English. |

I thought that was great! Didn't I see that in an email once?
Sounds like someone's a "Libertarian" to me! |

Count me in! I've been a registered Libertarian for over 10 years now.
FC, you know I'm a big "FC" fan, but I told you it's not a two-party system! Just ask Bonto and Opprimo! |

OK...when was the last time other than Democrat or Republican was in the White House? Controlled the House of Representatives? The Senate?
Hell, when was the last time the two main parties let anyone of any consequence into a network televised debate?
Like it or not, (and I don't!), it's a two party system. |

good points, FC, you're not telling me (or them guys) anything we don't already know. But you seem to have said "last time" quite a bit there. you're right - there
wasn't
a last time. it's always been this two party system. Like you, we do
not
like it (the fact there's just two main parties). I'd love to hear a Libertarian next to Romney or Obama or Clinton (the female version). Also, I've read a lot of your posts, FC. As i mentioned, Im a big fan - you sure
you're
a Conservative?.... |

Sadly... I agree w/ you 100%
And with the current state of things, the two parties, whom I will allow to remain nameless, have gotten so corrupt as it doesn't matter which you vote for, they both are looking to balloon the Federal government, strip you of your rights, tax you into submission, or otherwise deprive you of your liberty. The only
minor
difference is if they tell you to your face they are going to bend you over a barrel, or sweet talk you into volenteering ... |

Like the rich haven't ALWAYS existed. It's just now there's fewer of them with MORE money.
Thanks Bush and cronies! |
