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, Its time to apply The inheritance tax.

Not one of these taxes existed 60 years ago, & our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world.We had absolutely no national debt, had a large middle class, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.
What happened? Can you spell 'politicians?'

60 yrs ago there was no universal health care in canada,nor was there cpp and old age pension not to mention ei and welfare or them home owner grants the goverments like to pass out 6months before every election etc etc etc etc. Don't go blame the politicians for what all of us have been slurping up at the public trough...As the baby boomer gen ages they are becoming more and more of a drain on our resorces and economy Perhaps we should start euthinizing all the old people.....

Those old baby boomers built everything you have, kid. Governemnt expenses could be cut in half by any rational-thinking individual who has been used to living within his means. A huge portion of the taxes in existence today go to pay for the administration of the taxes themselves in a system so convoluted it defies description. Of course many of the taxes are disguised by being called "fees for services". When a service is mandated, it is a service no more. GD

I realize there are more taxes. I also know that our standard of living has increased over the same time period as well. Yes, our government wastes a lot of money and there is no doubt rationalization of all government entities is needed.

I can, but we spell it " F-I-L-T-H" here.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
