Goverments answer to the recession
Try and keep everyone working TO pay their TAX .............
At first I thought this was funny...then I realized the awful truth of it.
Be sure to read all the way to the end!
Tax his land,
Tax his bed,
Tax the table
At which he's fed.
Tax his tractor,
Tax his mule,
Teach him taxes
Are the rule.
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 ties,
Tax his shirt,
Tax his work,
Tax his dirt.
Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.
Tax his cigars,
Tax his beers,
If he cries
Tax his tears.
Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
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.
Put these words
Upon his tomb,
'Taxes drove me
to my doom...'
When he's gone,
Do not relax,
Its time to apply
The inheritance tax.

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, and our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt, had a large middleclass, and Mum stayed home to raise the kids.
What happened?
And I still have to 'press 1' for English!?!?!?!?

hmmmm... nice post, but i think i pay about a quarter of these at most.
is this a version of an american post or something?
i mean, what is hydro tax?
what is:
Federal Unemployment (UI) .. we dont pay a tax for that in aus because we have a bit more compassion than americans
federal income tax in aus is just income tax - the federal but is american
others i have nothing to do with:
Boat Registration Tax
Boat Mooring Tax if i can afford a boat i might just pay a bit more tax - but still never heard of it
Corporate Income Tax - is this company tax? thats fine but i never pay corporate tax ...
Firearms Tax
Food License Tax
Gross Receipts Tax
Health Tax - medicare tax is mentioned later - so are those 2 the same or ???
Hunting License Tax
Personal Income Tax or is this the same as federal tax ??? i mean i pay income tax but which is which?
Poverty Tax - what the hell is that?
Prescription Drug Tax - never heard of it
Provisional Income Tax - is this just income tax - because if it is its been listed 3 times now
Retail Sales Tax - well isnt that just gst that was mentioned earlier
Service Charge Tax - well thats the s in gst - mentioned earlier
School Tax - good old school tax - i remember that on my last tax return ... oh heck, no i dont - its just made up like all the others
Tollway Tax - well not a tax because they're private roads - but this is kinda on track regarding the problems we have , but still ... not a tax
Telephone Federal Tax - yeah that rings a bell ... :-o
Provincial and Local Surcharge Taxes - again - that makes sense :-P
Telephone Minimum Usage Surcharge Tax - anyone heard of this?
Well Permit Tax - well, well, well ...
Workers Compensation T - again ... what the hell is his?
cute, inaccurate emails from the US, that some people attempt to put into an australian context, should maybe scrutinised a bit more closely. i mean, people who continually do this are probably the same people that bemoan our loss of culture in australia.
