Entitlements

Oh yes indeed,
 how entitled I am
 to receive Social Security and Medicare;
of course for fifty odd years
 governement saw no problem deducting
 the coverage it now wants to cut;
and the senate and congress still have
 their own entitlement trusts,
 but let's build a wall at any cost
and provide rich and corporation tax cuts
 claiming the economy is robust
 while the poor and middle class are lost.

Republican majorities,
Let me know how it works out.
