Poetic Justice (Duty Calls)

This nation, this grand experiment in freedom, is lost. We are in debt to nations that have never had freedom And we are to blame. That great silent majority that did not vote. and all those representatives that allowed us to fail.

Can it be fixed? Can we just cease paying the salaries and benefits Of the representatives who have sold us out? Is their blind ignorance and lack of character beyond recovery? What kind of freedom is this that allows thievery? In the name of taxation Let's hide the enormity of it in payroll deductions Social Security is a joke our representatives do not get They have benefits that are way beyond that pittance Why have we sunk into apathy so far we allowed it?
