    At first I thought this was funny..... Then I realised 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

    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.

    What in "Hell" happened? Can you spell 'politicians?'
    I hope this goes around Australia at least 100 times!!!!! YOU can help it get there!!!!
