Today Is D-Day For Tax Filers


"Meanwhile there are millions living here who don't work, don't pay taxes here in the U.S. who still hate me for feeding them...." 

I saw that over at Divermedic's. It is a link to his plight with the taxes. I feel his pain. Does anyone else get tired of "feeding the monkey and watching it $hit? I have heard it mentioned in jest, but I really think "tax day" should coincide with "election day".


Tax Poem/Unknown Author

Tax his land, tax his wage,
Tax his bed in which he lays.
Tax his tractor, tax his mule,
Teach him taxes is the rule.

Tax his cow, tax his goat,
Tax his pants, tax his coat.
Tax his ties, tax his shirts,
Tax his work, tax his dirt.

Tax his chew, tax his smoke,
Teach him taxes are no joke.
Tax his car, tax his grass,
Tax the roads he must pass.

Tax his food, tax his drink,
Tax him if he tries to think.
Tax his sodas, tax his beers,
If he cries, tax his tears.

Tax his bills, tax his gas,
Tax his notes, tax his cash.
Tax him good and let him know
That after taxes, he has no dough.

If he hollers, tax him more,
Tax him until he’s good and sore.
Tax his coffin, tax his grave,
Tax the sod in which he lays.

Put these words upon his tomb,
"Taxes drove me to my doom!"
And when he’s gone, we won’t relax,
We’ll still be after the inheritance tax.

  1. The other "tax day" that I always get's my attention is that day in the year when you've made enough money to PAY that years taxes! Up till then you were working for the government, after THAT day, what you earn is yours for the rest of the year.

    2. It's called "Shed Day" and it includes ALL taxes in ALL the various names for them. Yes your fishing license is a tax. Last time I heard Shed Day was in Sept.

  5. Although I was never a Beatles fan, this song I can agree with:
    Taxman
    Song by

    The Beatles

    One, two, three, four
    One, two (one, two, three, four!)
    Let me tell you how it will be
    There's one for you, nineteen for me
    'Cause I'm the taxman
    Yeah, I'm the taxman
    Should five per cent appear too small?
    Be thankful I don't take it all
    'Cause I'm the taxman
    Yeah, I'm the taxman
    (If you drive a car, car)
    I'll tax the street
    (If you try to sit, sit)
    I'll tax your seat
    (If you get too cold, cold)
    I'll tax the heat
    (If you take a walk, walk)
    I'll tax your feet
    Taxman!
    'Cause I'm the taxman
    Yeah, I'm the taxman
    Don't ask me what I want it for
    (Ha, ha, Mr. Wilson)
    If you don't want to pay some more
    (Ha, ha, Mr. Heath)
    'Cause I'm the taxman
    Yeah, I'm the taxman
    Now my advice for those who die
    (Taxman!)
    Declare the pennies on your eyes
    (Taxman!)
    'Cause I'm the taxman
    Yeah, I'm the taxman (yeah, I'm the taxman)
    And you're working for no one but me (taxman!)

  6. amazing isnt it? we have hordes of people in the local, county, state and federal government whose sole job is to give your money to people who are not even citizens. there is the reason the richest counties in the usa all surround washington dc.

  8. D Day? No, it was E Day, your last chance to file for a 6 month extension, state and federal. Just enclose a check and it’s voucher for what you think you will owe.

    1. I always looked at being forced to pay "estimated taxes" before our business ever made a profit is just another form of "ass-rape" (based on the premise that a profit was to be made before said profit was actually achieved).
