The great depression has returned
manufactured or not, it's here
millions out of work, hundreds of thousands and more don't qualify for any form of money to live on
there was a $50B surplus last year in E.I.
An unreal tax that every WORKING Canadian paid into,
the rich didn't pay that tax, they're self employed
we need people retrained, we need wage subsidies, we need social services duration extensions, we need to make sure everyone has a roof over their head and some basic food on the table, heat for the home and a phone to find work
EVERYBODY, every last fucking one of them
Billions going out to pay for sports centres all across the land
we don't need sports centres, we need COMMUNITY centres, places to gather!
we need food and housing, and student loans to retrain ourselves
We pay 12 billion in foreign aid
and our own people are losing their homes and dying like fucking maggots on a desicated corpse
the corpse of laisse faire, imaginary money can starve you to death
prisoners have covering and food, can get degrees
the honest poor stand in the rain for hours
to get the smallest bowl of shit chili
$50B would get everyone working with wage subsidies, or grants for upgrading their schooling
expanded student loans, expanded food banks and clothing services
expanded social services to keep people in houses, not shelters
A $50B tax on the working wage slaves, silently absconded with
peanuts thrown out to the starving masses
to give the appearance of a "caring gov't"
We're setting the stage for a new dictator
we're rebuilding the mass hatred that poverty makes
they'll be feeding us scapegoats by the truckload
to be beaten down and jailed
for daring to scream for something to eat and a place to sleep
while the land the poor once owned is scooped up for a bargain
$50B would feed and house every Canadian who falls through the cracks for the next 20-30 years
Where did it go?
