Scarcity created by Those that Steal Our Abundance
Abject poverty it is said, must actually be honed, Then cultivated and even forced bred, This necessarily includes paper money of course, since they print it for free, offset by our taxes a means to oppress us indefinitely, at a rate of insatiable imposed debt by an inflated and obtruse nihilistic force, These aspects are...

Premium Member Murdering the CEO
When the frustrated socialist sees that health care isn't free He turns into a killer, claims he's saving you and me He murders a CEO, to make a point, because he could For the goal of perfection is the enemy of the good He gets adulation from those who think healthcare is a right They think profit is the devil,...

A Scarcity of An Individual
As I move my body vigorously Announce it, announce it As I sharpen my pencil Relate to it Playing with my tongue Oooh, this is a mouthful As I reap the fruits of my work Announce it, announce it Enjoying the flexibility of my tongue As I start to write Honouring my words Showing off my intelligence Oooh, am I done yet...

A Reaction To Fuel Scarcity

Society is...
