Shall we feed them?

The peasants are weary
Shall we let them rest?
No.
They’ve lost their jobs
A little unemployment maybe?
No.
Job retraining?
No.
Health care for the poor who are sick?
No.
Educational opportunities?
No.
Shelter?
No.
Transportation?
No.
Life?
No.
Liberty?
No.
Happiness?
No.
They vote.
Should they vote for you?
Yes!

Loved it! They only care at voting times and offer promises never fulfilled.

The lack of honesty and total absence of integrity
is apparently a pre-requisite for politicians elected
for a public office...and are as moral as the voters
forced them to be...with a society's accepted standards
considerably downgraded...and large chunk of society
morally bankrupted...how can you and the World...expect
immoral people to make moral decisions...
Yes! scandal/prison/corruption...kills an elected politician's
life in community!
Politicians are elected public servants not a permanent political class exclusive membership owners and masters of voters/World destination!!!
"Just say Noooooooooooooooooooooo" to this "sewers minds"
at your election polls. November is almost here.
Thank you Edward for sharing your poem.

I have to admit I have read this poem over and over all day today. In my mind I changed no to yes, but what do I know about politics? Change needs to come, it's as simple as that. For every no we all should be held accounted for. Take back America, remember when the American dream meant something?

If they were to discontinue, say, health insurance altogether, then those of us that get sick would just die, decreasing the surface population so that those of us who are hungry then CAN be fed or would not want for shelter, life, liberty and Happiness...I'd be happy to be the first to leave this world, as long as I can do it pain free...now what was this poem about, again...? Memory fails me but I know it ws one of your very best...e

It's pretty much the same across the globe. Politics are nothing more than legalised robbery and corruption.
Richard is right - This would make a great poster.

In my opinion this is one of your most marketable writes. Would make an effective poster. Peace to you...

Incredibly this sums up the attitudes in this country and perhaps the world as well. Succinct and powerful.
