Tax Cuts

“Cut my taxes!” cry the rich,
Paying taxes is such a bitch!

We don’t care about good roads and highways,
We board our planes and enjoy the flyways!

When it comes to legislators, we own them all!
If they don’t do our bidding, we let them fall.

Well-funded public schools, what’s the point?
Those penniless kids just want to smoke a joint.

Don’t get sick if you can’t afford health care,
If you can’t pay the bill, that’s your affair!

The rich say, “No welfare for them, but subsidies for us!”
Yes, the rich will throw the rest under the bus.

Keep those workers wages low,
Make certain they are never in the flow!

“Raise the minimum wage, are you kidding?
If that happens, who will do our bidding?”

“Privatize everything, that’s the best way,
While we secretly plan our getaway!”

That mega yacht can stay at sea for a year,
If it all comes crashing down, they have no fear!

“We really do need our countless billions,
Even though strugglers are in the millions.”

Do the rich understand the difference between luck and smart?
Are they really worth more than just a popcorn fart?
