Bought Politicians

One thing in life that I've been taught
is that no one occupies the seat of the president without getting bought.
When Hillary Clinton was running for president
she kept going on and on about a National Health Plan
but after pharmaceutical companies donated generously to her campaign
a National Health Plan was never spoken of again.
If an independent were elected who would truly do the right thing
I sincerely believe that independent would end up being the victim of an assassin.
