Then I realized the awful truth

[wheelinround]

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 work,
Tax his pay,
He works for peanuts
Anyway!

Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.

Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think..

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.

When he's gone,
Do not relax,
It?s time to apply
The inheritance tax.

*STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, & our nation was one
of the most prosperous in the world. We had absolutely no national
debt, had a large middle class, and Mum stayed home to raise the kids.

Gee, it is such a shame that a section labelled "Woodies Jokes" has to be used as a place to make sarcastic politically motivated statements.

Go somewhere else if you want to make political statements.

Political sarcasm is no substitute for the sort of comic relief that many people turn to this section for.

There is nothing even remotely funny about what you have written. Just political commentary made on the cheap at the expense of everyone who turns to this section for something to lighten their day.

Not everyone is a curmudgeon.

The list is poached from somewhere else, likely Canada from the internal evidence - Australia does not have 'provinces' for starters, and 'Inheritance tax' as such never existed in Australia tho' we did have 'Death duties' (which have existed since before 1000AD) - abolished about 30+ years ago, and still have 'Probate'.
