The Status Woe

Calculation, that Lord of tedium,
Has never the less earned it's ugly place
Amid the testing of all medium
Down to an infinitesimal trace,
Making the most of data collection
Yet always put first to evil intent,
Which has the meek exploring abjection
Until their modest resources are spent.

War Department stockholders come first
Because there is profit with munitions
And clearly poor people deserve the worst
Should they constrain a tycoon's ambitions,
Like premeditated tax evasion
And violent Caucasian invasion!
