Some window
cleaning accounts
that don’t
pay:
AT&T
Verizon
Fred Meyer.
When I
ran it
past a
collection agency
they smiled
& said
their hands
were tied.
A fundamental
definition of
Fascism is
a marriage
between government
& corporate
power.
In today’s
world things
have gone
a step
further.
Corporate power
has divorced
government &
is collecting
alimony.
The courts
are its
mistress.
The military
is its
body guard.
The population
is placated
with misinformation
junk food
frivolous toys
& sick
entertainment.
It’s highly
unlikely that
things will
get better.
