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 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, then

Tax his tears

Tax his car,

Tax his gas,

Find other ways

To tax his foot

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.

COMMENTS: 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?

And I still have to

"press 1" for English

Sure, there were property taxes back then and probably sales taxes too.

Oh well, sometimes stuff we get in email is 100% right on and sometimes not.

Even so, I found it interesting. Sorry that one got by me. And to think, I get

paid for proofreading medical documents! :confused:
