The Rulers

The rulers The poor rule the world, live in badly built flats buy plastic rubbish for the children as toys. They can`t cook and their diet is fat and disgusting, but without them, the rich would not be wealthy, fewer cars on the roads full of potholes as there would no one to keep the road drivable. And their big offices would stink as no one cleaned them, which really doesn`t matter as lifts would be out of order, and no janitors to change light bulbs. So you see, the poor are privileged they are the rulers of our modern society the opulent can`t do without them.
