Those who benefit the most from this great country should pay the most; either voluntarily or through taxes. There is no reason for a large national debt.

Don't Have to Pay the Taxes By Franklin Price 7/22/2016 Don't have to pay the taxes As long as we're not caught Or if there is the money So the system can be bought Many are above the fray At least they think it's so Ignore tax laws as their written So they may better use the dough Taxes are for others From income down to sales Let fools pay all the taxes While rich avoid them and the jails The poor ignore from hunger The rich from wanting more The working class the only ones Bringing money through the door Let's really sock it to them Say the Senate and the House Let's tax the working more and more Don't forget the children and the spouse Give the rich the breaks we can Likely we will get a share Then we can vote them further breaks To show them that we care Vote ourselves more raises From the taxes we've collected And use the money from the rich To see we're re-elected
