Dragging

The Elitists in Government are dragging their feet, while "the people" eat humble pie and sweat, wondering how far their lives will plunge into the unknown depths of chaos and debt, They wine, dine and schmooze on the Hill of no thrills, In the meantime, people are losing their homes, Dropping dead or electing to end their lives with pills or any means they can find, because they can't afford to take care of their children as they should, Yet, the Politicians continue to act as if United States' condition is "All Good" With indifference they retire to their mansions and lives of prosperity, while the "little people" are left hanging in the wind, Then they turn around and blame their incompetence on the only minority who is desperately trying to save the country from ruin and pestilence.....
