Climate Change and Government Power

Climate change and Global warming
how serious a threat?
One-hundred-eighty Countries join
to fight as one?  You bet

How'd they get so many Countries
to sign on, join the fight
90 percent are just "third world"
you think they see the light?

Listen now to what is spewed
things you do not want to know
Those Third World Leaders, hands held out
are waiting for their "dough"

They're being paid to tag along
and make it look like power
They won't contribute anything
to Americas finest hour

The only ones contributing
(the Countries with big bucks)
Third World Leaders?  Pockets lined
won't help at all, (that sucks)

Give them millions to make it look
like they're really in the fight
Pay them well (they laugh at us)
they'll party through the night

Dictators and Presidents alike
will now have many cars
Have visions of new mansions
and living like the "Stars"

All the while, this huge "Shell Game"
is, just a front for those
Shut down "Coal" and bring in "Solar"
hurry, no one knows

Shut down Gas and Oil too
Wind Farms really pay
No Taxpayer ever has to know
Their Government got its way......

Good one Pete, well said. I think part of the shell game is hitting us over the head with it so that we mindlessly believe their emotional nonsense; then they can rob us blind when we have no more heat or electricity. Check out my 'Swarming For Global Warning' poem if you want.
