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 its  
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. 
Stamp  Duty 
Tobacco Tax 
Corporate  Income Tax 

Income  Tax 
 
  

Council  Tax
Unemployment Tax 
Fishing License  Tax 
Petrol/Diesel Tax 
Inheritance  Tax 
(tax on top of tax) 
Alcohol  Tax 
V.A.T. 
Marriage License  Tax 
Property Tax 
Service charge  taxes 
Social Security Tax 
Vehicle  License Registration Tax 
Vehicle Sales  Tax 
Workers Compensation  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. Mum stayed home to raise the 
kids, Dad was  allowed to discipline  kids 

a  criminals life was  uncomfortable. 

What  happened? 

Can  you spell 'Political  Correctness' 

or  'politicians?' 

I  hope this goes around the UK 
at least  100 times. 

What  the hell happened?????
