Notes About The Poem

A form of capitalism exists where the leaders of business and politicians line each other's pockets. The limerick below contains the name of it. 

food for thought

His cream puffs will fill a crony
But food for have nots is phony
Donald’s a great cook
And serves each poor schnook
Trump steaks—No wait…it’s baloney!

Thanks Arthur. He does have a talent for making crap seem appealing to certain groups of people. I break them up into three categories. (1) The selfish rich who think only of their short-term wealth accumulation and who hate to pay taxes. (2) People who would like to be better off and who find it easier to blame someone else for their lack of progress. (3) People looking for simple answers and who love cults. Sending smiles, of course. At least we have those!!!

Thanks for the comment Lin. Yes, everything he does is a smokescreen for the accumulation of wealth and influence for himself, his family, and his billionaire sycophants. Hope you are well and smiles!!! BTW, where are all the people who complained about Hunter Biden getting paid? It says a lot. We criticized Hunter, but would they ever do the same for their perceived god? I am just amazed at the hypocrisy!! Smiles!!
