. In The Throes Of Corporatocracy
Yeah, lets just let the Wal-Marts and Exxons run rampant in this world. Yeah lets bail out big banks and jail those in opposition to the worldwide enterprise of booming, big business. Is this what we’ve become? Or are we what we’re supposed to be – greedy, war-like, a deceptive species without control? Where is the order to the chaos of our day-to-day lives? Deliberately stripped of our potential and creativity so American clothes can fit right and American cars just look nice. We live like this is the only way. There isn’t enough aid to feed the hungry or clothe the poor. Millions dying of curable diseases but we’ll keep on. And I can be certain of one thing they’ll keep on poisoning our water! As a matter of fact, the fact of the matter is B.P. still flows as does the affected waters in which they bore their holes. So in turn we line their pockets with green ‘Thank you’ notes. There’s filthy, greedy, hands behind every big scam. We won’t stand for this anymore! It is the power we let them have that they are using to control us all. And they will never give it back. But would you? This is what you’ve become – corporate slave! And is this what we’re supposed to be filthy consumers? History is exacting. History has warned us before, with greed comes turmoil. So will we let these companies abuse the resources of our world? As you and I sit and work for all the money spent on wars on bailing out these billion dollar organizations while they laugh and say, “Yeah, I’ll destroy ecosystems for an oil field.” How can we sit and idly watch impoverished countries burn and starve? “Yeah, I’ll destroy native cultures for an oil field. Yeah, I’ll stab this country in the back if it’s for a better deal.” We’re in the throes of corporate greed. We are in the throes of corporate American…
