This is a spin off from the Truth be Told article posted on Oct. 28th
Twas the day of my paycheck
And I was surprised
Extra deductions did appeared to my eyes.
What's this for and that for and I said what the heck?
My once livable pay had turned into a wreck!
Deductions for Food Stamps
Decdutions for the poor
Free housing for them
And a whole lot more.
My taxes went up
As high as the sky
And I just had to ask
Now I wonder why.
I work by butt offf
I work hard everday
Now I have to figure
How to live on my pay.
Can't go on Welfare
I make too much for that
And am now being taxed
So someone else can sit fat.
Vote how you feel
Vote for the best
But please don't make me
Pay for the rest!

Nice fairy tale
I guess I should have mentioned that I wrote that as satire after listening to a co-worker whine all day yesterday.
