Banned Man

Banned man

 So, it finally happened, of course, Trump gets the blame
but I think this, not the whole story.
For years the workers have seen their wage packet shrinking
 and their rights being ignored, no health insurance
nor trade union to look after their interest
As the common man gets poorer, the wealthy get richer
they live with the fear of needing surgery or losing the job.
The two ills go together if a sick person stay away from work
too long he gets fired anyway.
 The people revolted Trump fanned the flame that already 
was lit.
And it gets worse the big tech firms have banned the president
of the united states and that is an outrage that belongs 
to a dictatorship, it has a sinister implication that doesn’t bode well
for us civilian when only what suits the big tech get a hearing 
this includes anyone of us at any time.

it is a strange phenomenon of their increasingly exclusive inclusion program
