Forum Post: The Workins Mans Poem

No one cares about us anymore. Congress only worries about a stock report. Vets are homeless in the streets. The elderly have very little to eat. Sick people can’t see a doctor anymore, because Congress is nothing but a rich man’s whore. The President says it is time to act. I agree let’s take the country back. No more breaks for the upper class, the working people need to show their ass.

They cut social security while raising their pay, thinking we won’t remember come election day. Sending money to nations abroad, when we can’t even take care of our own. Now people are marching on wall street, hearts a pumping with a brand new beat. Congressmen call them a growing mob, I say they are tired of being robbed. We all need to stand up in one loud voice and tell the government we won’t take it anymore. Congress talks about giving them another chance, but I believe it is a political dance.

Election day is coming real soon, now congress is singing a different tune. Don’t tax the rich cause it will hurt jobs, we still have plenty more workers to rob. Lets buy foreign oil and make us some money, while we starve the people in the land of honey. I say its time to show them who’s boss, and hit them so they can feel a loss. Send the packing on election day, and tell the new ones to mind their ways. Stop spending all our cash in countries far away, and spend it here for a better way. China will own us from sea to sea, so we all better learn to speak Chinese.

I am sick of the games the government plays, and all of the taxes we have to pay. Congress eats lobster and steaks every day, while it is chicken for those who pay the way. Congress has limos, scotch, and cigar bars, workers can’t even fill up their cars. Congressmen wear Armani suits while workers can’t afford a new pair of boots. Congress thinks it is one big joke, but I think it is time to get a rope. Hang them high from a tree so once again workers can be free.
