We the people are the government of the United States. The people in Washington are only our representatives. We should be telling them what to do; not the other way around.
The U.S.A. Has Lost its Way
By Franklin Price
4/6/2017
The U.S.A. has lost its way
Founders rolling in their graves
Self centered governmental acts
In devastating tidal waves
No cooperation now
The party lines prevail
Some actions are not legal
Why are they not in jail?
Don't care what the people want
Care less for what they need
There for the recognition
And to satisfy their greed
It was not for their riches
They were voted to their seats
Was to care for all the citizens
Provide jobs and food to eat
Repair the infrastructure
Provide the people care
Protect the population
A few reasons they are there
It's time for them get in line
To govern as they should
Or put them on the chain gang
Breaking rock and chopping wood
