It's almost BOHICA time boys and girls

Poem Artwork

Joe lights the flame

Nancy stirs the pot

Taxpayer’s goose cooked

Bargain it is not

 

Gotta do something

Maybe self insure

2,000 page bill

Reeking of manure

 

System clearly broken

Deadbeats suck it dry

If you really need it

Don’t bother to apply

 

Lobbying for millions

Breadcrumbs for the tribe

Amazing how such a load

Passes simply for a bribe

 

Health insurer maggots

Sniffing at our grave

To catch the scent of victims

They elected not to save

 

And speaking of elections

The time is drawing near

To throw the whole damn crooked bunch

Right out on their rear

System clearly broken,
Deadbeats suck it dry;
Lobbying, for millions,
Breadcrumbs, for the tribe.

It's amazing how primitive we are when it comes to things that should be fairly simple to fix, and yet so many still like to proclaim that we're the most advanced nation in the world. Truly, truly sad.

Be always safe,

Right on Patrick! Couldn't agree with you more! The parasites are sucking us dry. Cap and Trade will also drain whatever wealth is left of the middle class. The mandatory health insurance will mandate the IRS to go after anyone not signed up. Total tyranny. Real men prefer Revolution! Keep 'em coming.
