The Government Can

Who can tax the sun rise? Who can tax the trees? Let you run a business and collect up all the fees? The government, the government can. Hey, the government can, 'cause they mix it up with lies and make it all taste good.

The government takes everything we make to pay for all of their solutions, health care, climate change, pollution. Throw away the constitution.

And who can give a bailout, and tell you to behave, and make the founding fathers roll over in their grave. The government, oh the government can . And the government can 'cause they mix it up lies and make it all taste good.

The government takes everything we make, they're power hungry and malicious, their economics are fictitious. Soon we'll have to eat up dishes. (How's that taste kids? Mmm delicious!)

Who can be a failure, in so many ways? Instead of getting fired, hey, they'll give themselves a raise. The government, YAY. The government. And the government, 'cause they mix it up with lies and makes it all taste good. And your Uncle Sam can 'cause he mixes it with lies and makes themselves look good. And I feel so good, 'cause the government says I should.

  • I have no problem paying taxes when that money is spent on police, fire, military, etc (those that actually earn it.) but it has got out of control. To many Americans now depend on government handouts to subsidize their laziness. This video seems to be addressing that issue.

  • so true with a great tune. God Bless this Nation!

  • Taxes MUST be voluntary. Otherwise it is not government by consent.

  • Taxes are theft.

    They take your money and have no obligation to give you anything in return.

    Income tax as enforced is one of the 10 planks of the communist manifesto, is dysfunctional, unethical, and as far as I can tel, unlawful. 

    Charity is a critical aspect of any healthy society, however, don't confuse society with government. They are neither the same, nor are they friendly. The latter seeks to bend the former to its will in order to extract as much wealth as will be tolerated...

  • @coop344 "To many Americans now depend on government handouts to subsidize their laziness."  Bailed out and tax-credited companies, too!

  • Great 

  • This guy craves penis. (no offense to gays)

  • @coop344 I agree.

  • seriously, this video should play before every campaign commercial. love it. classic!

  • I just love you Tim! This is so true though!! Lol!! I'm homeschooled like you were!! Go homeschoolers!!:D

  • In my experience, the people who complain most about taxes are the same people who want more wars and want to increase the military industrial complex. Often these people want less civil liberties whenever their guys get into power, and only complain about power grabs when they are out of power.
