Institutional thievery run amok

Tax his land, tax his wage,
Tax his bed in which he lays.
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 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,
Hey maybe you'll get a refund!!

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago and our nation was the
most prosperous in the world, had absolutely no national debt had the
largest middle class in the world and Mom stayed home to raise the
kids.

What the hell happened?

I'm sure there are more not listed here, and more
to come.

That vampire has an appetite, don' he. Mom used to
stay home because there was less blood taken back
then. She could afford to.

Had enough yet?
