Corporate Sector

I'm not sorry if this offends anyone.

This global warming thing,

It really just isn't so.

It's a natural cycle we go through.

That's the way it goes.

 

And I wouldn't give much credit,

To those who always say,

We're abusing our natural resources,

That stuff is ours to take.

 

Don't worry about our foreign policies,

I know it's difficult to understand.

But when we own it all outright,

You'll see that I'm the Man.

 

I know you are a little concerned,

about the prices of gas and food.

The game of conquest is expensive,

but ultimately, It'll all be good.

 

We moved your manufacturing job,

off to a foriegn land.

I know your a little angry about that,

but hey! Walmart and Cosco need a hand.

 

You should be proud to compromise,

your dignity and morals.

And if you'll just give me your soul

Then we can rule the world.

 

You should be thankful you live in America,

even though it's tough to get ahead.

But as long as give me your power and money,

I'll take until your dead.

 

Who am I?

I remember people saying things would get better when I wrote this.
Two frickin years ago!
What's improved, other than my writing skills and conversational spanish?

ironic.. You wrote this two years ago and I am sitting here trying to find at least one thing you touched on that has changed ..For the better. Nope could not find one.
That is a sad state of affairs. This is the type of pieces I used to write about.. I have no problem calling it like it is. With all due respect , of course.

You are such a good writer. I could so see you writing a by line for a newspaper or website. yes sir, sure can..

We moved your manufacturing job,
off to a foriegn land.
I know your a little angry about that,
but hey! Walmart and Cosco need a hand.

No, this is spot on as far as I'm concerned, Tony. I have often found, also, that economists are arrogant and blind to some of the effects of capitalism in the same way that the amoral corporate types are.
