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 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... 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.

So relevant today...

Indeed, so very relevant today! It's quite shocking how many "piggies" manage to get their "snouts" in the trough when someone dies. I'm in the middle of it all right now with my brother having passed on last year. He paid all his taxes, like the rest of us, while he was alive so why should the government be allowed to conduct a raid (not a lot less than half - 44% - remember) on the assets he's left behind?

Especially as the people at the top of the ladder have schemes set up by their accountants so they pay minimal taxes if any and that in tax havens so this Country doesn't even benefit a little.
