TAXING THOUGHTS

Let us hide behind a litany of lunacy
Of gods and Gods, prophets and profits

Does it do any good to feed the hungry
When we are the cause of the hunger

To take money from those who work
And give it to those who can’t or won’t

Do the presidents dogs really need SS protection
More than his garage door

Premium MemberLogic Can Be Taxing

Nothing quite like taxpaying civilians:
tax billionaires of all of their billions.
But win ‘em a lottery?
Resolve gets quite watery:
seems the IRS wants two hundred million.

People reportedly outraged at having to pay $200M in tax on an immediate payout of the $1.6B lottery, lol.

Premium MemberA Taxing Situation

An audit caused me so much distress,
a demand arrived from IRS
I’ve interest to pay
or they’ll lock me away
my finances are in a huge mess!

Neat alcohol's one of my vices -
my wallet has hit a huge crisis,
much to my chagrin
I can’t afford gin
I’m angry at inflated prices!

Taxing Away Any Kindness

They call them value added taxes.
In New Zealand it is called Government service tax
and it is on everything.

I call them the unkindest taxes of all,
Any tax that punishes you for being kind to your neighbor,
Gives the tax man their cut if you pay for a homeless person's lunch,
Or takes  a percentage of a a

Tomorrow is Our Taxing Day
By Franklin Price
4/14/2016

Tomorrow is our taxing day
The IRS will have its way
Unless you've filed or did extend
They'll stick it to you at the end

To get a refund you must trust
Deductions were not formed from dust
For smoke and mirrors with the forms
Could get you cells not college dorms

Do not tempt the audit

Premium MemberFarting Cows - a Taxing Time For Farmers - For Anne Lise

When a Norwegian cow passes gas
They want to tax the gas from its ‘ass’
A cow passes 4 tonnes of methane each year
Just imagine the stink from its rear!!!!

Thanks for the inspiration Anne Lise ***

Premium MemberTaxing Times

I pay the tax you keep billing
Although very poor I am willing
Collective we are rich
Alone down to the last stitch
A part of this cull of one’s last shilling.


Our tax is outrageous
Our politicians umbrageous
Like one step forward
Then two steps backward
Is being honest disadvantageous?


An old man who lived in a windmill
Way up north in the town of

Taxing Dilemma

Rich ones get richer from our wages.
Middle man paid with too many pages.
We continue on path.
Hiding outrageous wrath,
Revolved in political stages,

Taxes, taxes, what will be the due.
Deductions, exemptions for a few,
All my money they have kept.
Deducting tears I wept.
Tax man arrived claimed all of them too.

The poor keeps getting poorer each year.
They cannot wait for

Taxing Benefits

I met a Sheriff the other day.
Just teasing, I happened to say.
I am stopping by to pay my taxes.
Giving you my money before axes,

He said to me, “I get none of that money“.
I looked up in surprise, and thought, how funny.
He and many others forget our taxes pay salaries.
They work for us and their duties

Taxing Sin

A tax for beer,
a tax for smokes;
So why not tax
sex and dope?

We need the money-
that’s not in doubt,
so tax that hooker
when she puts out!

And tax the dealer
who sells the drugs
to stupid kids
and slimy thugs!

While we’re at it,
let’s  regulate
disease and purity
in every  state

Let  users know
how pure’s the pot;
Inform the johns
of what she’s got

Tax
