You Know What?
You know what’s heartbreaking?
Seeing people die because they can’t afford the meds,
They can’t go on living because big pharma is unforgiving
With price gouging that greed goes right to their heads.
You know what’s depressing?
The cost of higher education most of students can’t waive,
People take out loans then later try to buy their homes,
By getting us stuck in debt corporations keep us enslaved.
You know what’s also sad?
Is the hate and fear mongering those in power portend,
Have a conservative front just don’t be a Republicunt,
So many hypocrites - I don’t know how they can pretend.
But you know what angers me the most?
Is that orange cunt face coming to my home town,
And if it were allowed I’d punch him in the mouth,
Then tell him “Bitch ass bitch, go away you clown”.

Yes, always vote, for the person that makes most sense and wants to do right by the people. We gotta take care of our children, our vets, our elderly.

Indeed. I know companies want to make up for the R&D, but to charge an arm and leg so you make it up fast, where is the sense of decency in that. Where is the social responsibility these corporations sometimes claim to have?

Just so disgusting that so many citizens are left behind and forgotten. Such an outrage that anyone would have to struggle for/go without medical care - in a place that clearly has the resources to provide it! I don’t blame you at all for your anger.

Totally agree with you, it is disgusting. Lobbyist and lawmakers make it an unfair game. It's all about corporate profits because to them, only those at the top matter. But Karma will always find a way.

Thank you Blue, I'm glad you enjoyed this. It's disheartening but at the same lights a fire under all of us to fight for a cause.

The most disheartening thing about humans is that we can change, but most the times we choose not to. We could all not liter, we could all recycle, reduce and reuse but most of the time people don't think of the future.
