Title: The Call All Fools
Author: Anonymous

Poem: Driving beats pound in my head...Found the dark end of Detroit...Walking the unemployment line...Without company benefits..

Say good-bye to the days when Honda was a cheap motorcycle...Hello, decay and heartache...

God Damn it wasn’t my mistake...Making too many gas guzzling SUV’s...I worked as hard as I could everyday...Why’d they make us on the line pay?

The 28 year tax cut solution giving more money back
to the rich to trickle down to the common man to spend on cheaper subsidized "Free trade" coolie imports...

What the Hell did we do!!!
Spend blood and money
We couldn’t spare-

A broken body...Returning from the desert...Cardboard boxes haunt me...America my home...Won’t you Help me
Screaming at the top of my one lung!!!

Sam Walton turns in his grave...Nothing in the store is American made except little American flags to fly from an antenna...

Deny the decline...Hire another Part-Timer...

Finally,
The money changers
Are losing their shirts
Just like you and me…...
