 The cost of the Police actions in the Middle East worth the stealing from education?

These numbers are fact. We need to think before we vote and accept poor leadership. Many questions can be born if we think. Number one question.
Who and why are we in the Middle East? Is war declared?
Do we have we a Army or a Police action type military?
Why are we spending one trillion on war?
Do you know that does not count the V.A Hospital cost of almost 400 billion
for Soldiers wounded?
Why are there 40 million people on food stamps?
Why have 20 million men and woman who gave up?

                         Can we tell the truth from a lie?

Poor men and woman at work.
Hours cut from 40 hours to 28.
Big boss tell them.
"Nothing we can do.
You can get unemployment and welfare."
They walk out with tears and not understanding.
They work hard and what did they get.
Nothing from big business!

A Mama asked me to watch her daughter. My daughter best friend.
She lost her home and have no job.
My door is open for the girl and mother too.
No children or person should be homeless and alone.

Obama spend almost three million for a field trip to England.
3 million dollars can buy some bread and meat for the soup in a lot of soup kitchens.

1.1 billion dollar for House of Representatives to live on. $2.3 for each man and woman for food and office. Michigan will pay $41.4 million for out 18 people to eat like pigs and live like kings. 41.4 million could help many people.

I must steal a Neil Young line. "Come a time when we ain't blind." Pass a bill to cut the pension of Senators and House representative Federal and State.  You would be amazed how much money we pay for the people in-charge. Retired and active.

"Poor babies don't you cry.
Mama will make you some food.
40 million people on food stamp.
Obama say we are fine.
We will eat our bread and peanut butter.
Be glad.
Tomorrow can't get worst?"

The wave of anger must start.
A man or woman who wait for miracles.
Will died wishing he stood tall and fought for the right things.
Better to be part of life.
Then be forgotten like the middle and lower income class.


I don't know what can be done?
I tell you young and bright children.
Better fight for your rights to be free.
Best fight for the protection of the natural resources.
Best not allow corporations and big business to control your world.

Time is short.
Time to raise hell.
 It is time to stand together.
Many easy answers.

Less government.
No pensions for retire Senators and House representatives.
Big business must be held accounted for downsizing for sake of profit only.
Rich people and big business must pay taxes.
No more huge expense accounts for our so-call leaders.

"Come on children gather around.
I will tell you a story of liar and thieves.
One day the people got tire and demanded change.
The liars create ghosts and war to make the simple mind forget.
They may lose their home and their life.
But the people waited too long.
There was nothing left for them.
I wonder my children?
Is it too late to scream, demonstrate and write/e-mail the leaders.
Tell them.
We are tire.
We want a better ending for the people of the USA and the world.

Author's Note

I apology for my wild and crazy thoughts. I get so tire of hearing of Obama taking a boatload of people to England. How many people are homeless outside the safety of the White house? 40 million men and woman on welfare. One in five people are desperate. Time for logical men with wisdom of what it true and what is a lie. A beat dog can rise up and bite your ass if you are not careful.

Not as crazy as you might think, Coyote. This is a good write. I actually heard that 60% of FY 2011 federal budget is going to entitlement programs such Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security, and the 19% of the budget is on defense. Either way you slice it, our debt will be so massive, it will take 30,000 years to pay back.

[Michael S]

A very good piece of facts and poem on it.
Excellently put.
kudos to your effort, John.

People should vote after foreseeing the aftermath of it.

[Coyote Poetry]

Yes they did vote because of the past. This is why we have Trump now. I hope he does well??? Thank you Michael for reading and the comment.

[Valentine]

Whew...and whos to say that anything will get better with Trump in office. Valentine

[Coyote Poetry]

We will learn ASAP. I hope for better day????

[Norma M Sutton]

All true . . . and the note . . . don't apologize. I feel the same way.

[Priyankaabhilaashi]

Great efforts..!!!

[Dahlia Phoenix]

Its not crazy at all. I love the fact that their is someone out there who sees the reality of things and is not scared to say what's on their mind. They earn a lot respect from me. First off, you're right. Many workers who work for their families work almost more than 40 hours and then to be cut hours just because Congress wants to start taking money from the money for their own priorities it makes the economy even worst now with Obama not even trying to make a change. Now the elections are coming up next year and really to say, who can actually make a difference is the real question.
This poem is absolutely intricate and I hope people read this.

Its just not the situation in US. You may go almost anywhere in the world and see the governments exploiting the people and their rights. The whole world at a stretch needs honest and truthful leaders.

You have taken a great initiative.

And abut the pom, I loved it, as always.

Carry on with your fruitful works. :)

[Cocoa]

not american, but I can empathize with your point of view. happens all over the world, and to a much greater extent in the third world.

Obama is crazy!

[Pebbles]

This is a brilliant write my friend and all true ... i was so pleased to see the british young people standing up and protesting when their university funds were cut , not that it did much good but the children are the future and they are waking up , for years people have been numbing their sences by taking drugs to excape and now at last people are willing to wake up and fight for their rights .... there shouldnt need to be an uprising to make the leaders listen but when people are starving and going without what do they think is going to happen .................. i doff my cap to you on this one its brilliant :)
