SING IT to the tune of Little Boxes by Malvina Reynolds
Little taxes, little taxes –
They’re little, but they’re adding up,
And they’re always adding more of them
And we pay them every day.
Let’s stop adding TO sales tax!
Let’s now have an income tax
On the rich folks who like sales tax
So their incomes aren’t taxed.
Let’s vote for the income tax
On TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND GRAND
And cut back the sales tax
And the property tax too!!
REPEAT THE WHOLE THING!!!!
