IT GOES FOR—WHAT?

IT GOES–FOR WHAT?

 

I guess there’ll be no more drama,

No withheld refund by Obama…

The I.R.S.

Is okay, I guess,

No one took it to the Bahamas.

–

We’ve taken some to put away,

For overdue vacation some day…

Some for tithe

And some to survive

A little longer ’til pay.

–

The rest must go into the car,

Without which, we’d not go far…

Muffling the sound

Of a tailpipe resound,

And other things that have traveled too far.

–

And to cover for the rent,

This amount is heaven-sent…

So much to pay,

Cam we get away

With spending 200%?

TAX LAW IN CALIFORNIA

TAX LAW IN CALIFORNIA

(Opinion)

(Tune of “The Yellow Rose of Texas”)

Heard it on “Red-Eye Radio”…

So allegedly it’s true,

In “Hotel California”

They’re coming after you!

A court struck down one portion

Of the tax withholding code,

Now the State wants to go five years back

To gather what they’re “owed”!

–

Oh…those California taxes

They’re on the Up and Up,

The State has its own “I.R.S.”

And it’s going bankrupt…

It’s not enough to raise the rates,

They’ll retroactively

Change what was five years ago…

What responsibility!?!

–

What can we say ’bout greedy folks

Who will not regulate,

Or listen to the people who

Put food upon their plates…

This “representative” government

Doesn’t speak for us at all,

It spends our money however

And shoves us ‘gainst the wall!

–

I hear that Texas’ booming

From California’s loss,

Texas won’t spend tax money

On socialistic dross…

Millionaires and bigger business,

Those who can afford to move

Will leave the left coast to the fools

Who refuse to improve!

–

Our President similarly

Allegedly “don’t” care

About those paying all his bills

And how they’re going to fare…

With theory put in practice

His government has grown,

With folks who do not pay their way…

The whirlwind we will own!

–

Oh…Obama’s big idea…

Is already deep in debt,

He is a lame duck president:

We ain’t seen all yet…

He and California

And all them “Progressive ” states

Won’t lift a pinky finger

For the people’s sordid fates…

No, they won’t lift a finger

Except for THEIR ingrates!
