Ontario Taxes... May 30th,2013 Poem by James Bredin

I’m not in favor of my taxes going up and up and up,
Politicians say “Revenue tools” and its going to be rough,
Five hundred million a year added to our taxes is sick,
How is it possible that politicians can be so thick?

We don’t have to vote and less than half of us even bother,
But party members line up at the polling booths with brothers.
Australia has compulsive votes for all taxpayers in that land,
Our politicians avoid this issue as they follow the band.

Canadians don’t think about this until its too late,
Think Queen’s Park in Toronto and the next election date,
Think about your taxes going up, when you go to vote,
Because politicians now think of you as just another goat

Politicians love our lack of referendums and recall,
They can increase our taxes and when questioned, they can just stall,
The audacity of these politicians should cause us to think,
That plus missing money, deleted e-mails followed by a wink.

And if they are jerks; they stay in power and cannot be recalled,
And without referendums or recall, we cannot be appalled,
And we cannot arrange where or when or if we want to die,
And not only that; you cannot even make a noise or ask why?
