Perfected Deception

Bailout?
A prolonged stimulus,
Packaged to delay...
A masked betrayal.

To produce to loan,
From nothing one owns...
Provides a deeper digging done,
To convince more credit will lift everyone...
From a hole!
That will not be closed.
Until the truth is told.

And truth has never been a commodity,
For sale to be sold!

Bailout?
A prolonged stimulus,
Packaged to delay...
A masked betrayal.

Cash and Carry

Logistically speaking...
The farce observed is deepening.
Two opponents on the surface,
Are hyped to run to lead.
An ailing country...
With a wounded economy!
A bailout is recommended,
To rescue with loand and credit.
As those who speak publicly...
Tell those who will vote,
How their service connected patriotism
Has them indebted.

Experience is spoken...
As a thought those voting should have.
Plus one is young and black.
Is the country ready for that?
The other is older,
With a look as if a weight is on his shoulders.

Bailout

Life is a whiff of
fragrance in the desert.
The art of living best
known to you
and you are in your world.

Despite rough weather
I am trying my best
bailout seeing you therein.

Sad Testament

'Though online only 2% have read HR Bailout
Know not the Bill’s a mangy dog with no teeth
Empty promises as both Parties sell voters out
On middle-class grave they lay a wilted wreath

Viral Revolution

Commoners in Greece take to the street
In protest of forced austerity n' corruption
IMF awaits "Bailout loan" to complete
As bank follows oligarchy plan of;
"Problem, reaction, solution"
An age old ploy that soon finds defeat

(Inspired by D I)

I opposed No Child Left Behind, I opposed the Medicare prescription drug bill, I opposed the Wall Street bailout. What the American people are starting to see is that Republican, Republicans on Capitol Hill get it and the Democrats, from the White House to Capitol Hill, just don't get it.

Remember the Tea Party movement didn't get started in September of 2008 when the bank bailout was passed. It really began on Feb. 19th, 2009 when a television commentator named Rick Santelli stood up and said what the hell are we doing bailing out people who couldn't afford a mortgage by taking money from people like me who are prudent?

After the $700 billion bailout, the trillion-dollar stimulus, and the massive budget bill with over 9,000 earmarks, many of you implored Washington to please stop spending money we don't have. But, instead of cutting, we saw an unprecedented explosion of government spending and debt, unlike anything we have seen in the history of our country.

Justice, My

a poor woman lied
on her application for
food stamps about prior
drug convictions,
which was wrong...
but she did it to
feed her two children...
and she has paid the money back!
she got federal jail time.

big banks lied, cheated,
and basically stole on
applications for loans,
made a big profit,
showed a big loss,
and got bailout money...
justice, my ass!

Eliminate Congress

Are you freaking kidding, me
A free bailout, to the rich and greedy
So to hell with, the poor and needy

A credit debauchle
From your pockets and mine
While the super rich
Steal and spend
When, oh lord will all this madness
Come to an end

Never I say
This greed from high end business, politicians
Will never go away
This message from a simple man, a janitor
Depressed again
Another day
