TAX

Life – Terror. Ecstasy. Fight. Denial. Flight. Failure. PAIN. Forgiveness. Reconciliation. Hope. Love. Peace – Death.

Not one of these taxes [below] existed 100 years ago, & our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world… We had absolutely no national debt, had a huge manufacturing base, and ‘Mum’ stayed home to raise the kids.

What happened?

Could it be the lying parasitic, career politicians wasting our money?

Could it be Capitalism and the ridiculous, so called trickle down economic theories, could it be the relentless pursuit of profit upon profit by a handful of multi Billionaires who together hold more wealth than the other (99%) of the world put together? Could it be our steadfast resolve to trash and burn our amazing (and only) planet & habitat by fuelling irreversible climate change? Could it be our continuing relentless pursuit of war, weapons, death & destruction? Take your pic.

We live in a world where £11,000,000,000,000 (11 Billion GBP profit) is viewed as a £11 Billion LOSS due to the fact the previous year their (BP) profits were £22 Billion. Give your heads a fucking wobble and wake the fuck up! Think about your kids and their kids and DO something about it before we literally cannot.

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.
