Bend Over, America
would you rather live in a
totalitarian state which
doesn’t dilly-dally round the
truth, pretending that citizens
have freedom, feeding them
the illusion that they will not
be crushed more & more
each day & squandered by the
rich elite in charge, whose hand
on the button, whose police in
the pocket & whose military
& private mercenary firms that
both work for them, march round
the libraries, the grocery stores &
through the streets, dictating every
bit of life which the cameras up
above do not,
or
would you rather live in the US
that has just decided, via. president
hope & change (whose first
campaign was largely funded by
Goldman Sachs & whose cabinet is
littered with its influence) & the DOJ
under his reign, that Goldman need not
worry its head anymore after a year of
“investigation,” which to the public
eye was supposedly aiming towards
prosecution of the scum****s who
profited off the poor during the
most recent financial meltdown?
um, it is a catch-22 folks.
stating that there is insufficient evidence
to go forth with the probe, the DOJ
shows its true colors & goes belly-up,
whilst almost in the same breath, Goldman
shifts its funds & loyalty to romneyhood,
who promises to deregulate &
stop at nothing to keep business as usual
from being affected by anything that
pathetic & petty public
might be groveling about---
so bend over, america,
bend the **** over &
take it right up the ass,
with your teeth gritted in pain &
your eyes closed, wishing
Glass-Steagall was still around,
wishing that this whole experiment
called america had been started by
somebody besides a room of rich
white guys who had fled taxation in
England, to come & exploit a
whole new frontier.
