Geez Tom, the only thing I would suggest is that Salaries and bonus's should be tied to how their individual corporations decreasd unemployment, created jobs and contributed to a national healthcare plan.
On the whole, I agree 100 kagillion %.

Right on target, as usual, Tom. During the Bush administration I bought chest waders and a close pin for my nose so I could wade through the stuff and not gag on the smell. Now I’m wearing neck waders and a gas mask. It won’t be long now before we’re all going to need deep sea diving suits.
Now, in Nam it was a daily fourth of July which the fly-boys entertained us with those napalm eggs their birds dropped out there. Afterward we could go on for miles without meeting a molesting goon sniper or anything else.
We should be doing it in Afghanistan's mountains hidings, get busy with napalm, say "too bad" to collateral damage (the baddies are hiding among them) and drop a few more eggs which will take trees, bushes and anything those boogeymen try to use as a cover. Then, by night use drones warm-search-cameras and spry those caves with Hellfire missiles up they chimneys, and say oops! if you caught an "innocent" poppy grower in the proceedings.
An honest and powerfully expressive poem,I like the passion in it.take care

This is great stuff indeed. I agree with you all the way on this one. Right on point with the Afghan heroin angle too. Just read an article today by William Engdahl detailing this very same topic. ALL great empires were build with drug money. British East India Company with opium and right on down the line. Sad truth, if American banks ceased laundering narco-dollars, our economy would collapse overnight.
Married ten years, and more in love than ever, Robert and Marcie have everything to live for. But a terrible secret is breaking Robert's heart: he knows that Marcie is about to die...
South Baltimore serves as the backdrop for this gripping story of three brothers leading very different lives but joined forever by the secrets of a painful family past.
