This is too true to be funny.

 

The next time you hear a politician use the

Word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about

Whether you want the 'politicians' spending

YOUR tax money.

 

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,

But one advertising agency did a good job of

Putting that figure into some perspective in

One of it's releases.

 

A.

A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

 

B.

A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

 

C.

A billion hours ago our ancestors were

Living in the Stone Age.

 

D.

A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

 

E.

A billion Pounds ago was only

13 hours and 12 minutes,

At the rate our government

Is spending it.

 

 

Building Permit Tax

Cigarette Tax

Corporate Income Tax

Dog License Tax

Income Tax

Unemployment Tax

Fishing License Tax

Food License Tax

Fuel Permit Tax

Petrol/Diesel Tax

Hunting License Tax

Inventory Tax

(tax on top of tax)

Liquor Tax

Luxury Tax

Marriage License Tax

Property Tax

Real Estate Tax

Service charge taxes

Social Security Tax

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?

 

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...

We had the largest middle class in the world...

And Mum stayed home to raise the kids.

 

What happened?
