World Leaders Respect

The world needs leaders, that it can respect, lying to people builds distrust, granted people can and do make up false beliefs, conspiracy theories, The Russian people turned against the Czar because they believed, that Rasputin was telling the Czarette and the Czar how to run the country Poverty and suffering leads to hatred, add rumors and innuendo and you create a climate, where the people turn against you. Starlin killed sixty million people that disagreed with him his dream to make a better world the ends justify the means Sixty million brave Russian's died fighting against injustice fighting for the homes taken from them homes farms and live's Have you heard the saying look after your pennies and your dollars will look after themselves your poor people are your pennies create jobs for you pennies create homes for your pennies and your rich people will profit from sales we are all in this world together we all depend on each other the rich people make the jobs the poor people work in those jobs abuse is still ripe on a planet that calls itself civilized sweatshop labor still exists an honest wage for honest days works The dreams of unions past is that such a horrible request People in the industrialized nations fought for the right of our children fought for the right of our workers now employers simply travel into third world countries to continue the abuse in other countries We are all part of the same world granted we all have limited budgets we all go for cheap products eggs from caged chickens cheap clothes from sweatshop labor and honest wage for an honest days work we abuse each other over yesterdays slavery and fail to see the slavery of today as leaders of the world, you need respect to build that respect, create investment to overcome climate change build respect speaking out to stop the abuse of people People are not stupid we remember your lies we watch well you have affairs we guess at the truth behind your propaganda we don't always get it right in a world full of lies sometimes it's hard to find the truth but each day the planet gets smaller if you want people to respect you become people we can respect
