A Billion is what??? 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 Euros ago was only 13 hours and 12 minutes, at the rate our government is spending it. Collected from You as: Stamp Duty Tobacco Tax Corporate Income Tax Income Tax Council Tax Unemployment Tax Gun License Tax 2nd Property Tax Fishing License Tax Petrol/Diesel Tax Inheritance Tax (a 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 Insurance & Other Levies STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY? Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago and at that time 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 hard & uncomfortable. WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED ???? Think about it for a while... To Many Greedy & Power Hungry Politicians.... Can you even spell or need 'Political Correctness' I hope this goes around Ireland at least 100 times.
