Taxing News "If you drive a car, I'll tax the street. If you try to sit I'll tax your seat. If you get too cold I'll tax the heat. If you take a walk I'll tax your feet." "Taxman" sung by George Harrison, "The Best of George Harrison." Taxes are unfair, taxes are excessive, taxes are getting higher and higher as this decade progresses. Taxes shouldn't be this way, Corporations are given big writeoffs and the working man pays and pays. The government taxes your weekly check and then when you buy a car, a home, a shirt, a comb, he collects another tax. As if thats not enough, when April 15 comes around, the government will take some more taxes until taxes run you into the ground. If all of these taxes don't agree with you I've got some taxing news to share, the government will be raising your taxes inorder to finance their latest scheme, with more sundry wars and government giveaways they'll tax you to the extreme. Our only hope is that big government will someday go away, but as long as we want the pork that the government provides we will surely pay. JamesLee 07April 2008 Tax deadline is less than 10 days away. Now go and pay your taxes... |

You are SO right, dear James!!!! I wholeheartedly agree with what you say, taxes ARE exaggerated. Here our ex-Prime Minister Berlusconi said during the electoral campaign that "you can evade taxes"!!!! Yes, people like him, dishonest to the bone! It's always the blood of those who live honestly that is sucked. Love, Margherita |

Well said, Sir! Wesley Snipes owes the IRS $30, 000,000, and gets away without paying a dime! I'm a retired senior citizen/poet on a fixed income, and those publicans nailed me (easy target) for $52, 000.00 and collected every dime! |
