CORRUPTION - Parody of Truckin’ | Don Caron

Corruption in our government is so rampant that it needs to be commented on every once in a while. It raises its ugly head with Justice Alito’s brazen acceptance of “benefits“ from individuals who have business before the court and who benefit from Alito’s decisions. On top of that Alito announced last week that Congress has no power to impose a code of ethics on the Supreme Court.

It’s been bought and sold. Lobbyists? Exceed them thirty-fold Elections? Let’s take a look at those with versions that are too dumb to disclose Election corruption has nothing to do with dead voters or ballot box stuffing or voting machines with encoders Not about dictators dead but still wielding their power Not about drop-offs or voting an earlier hour It got bad back in 2010 The Supreme Court made a decision then Citizens United, a Corporation playpen Buy a candidate then put them in The rich can now just legally bribe The Congress, courts, just watch them imbibe Their own taxes they proscribe Pushing the burden onto the poor. What could go wrong when you put the weight of the system on the backs of the poorest who struggle with no assist burdened with debt from a college they barely remember Raising a family on barely enough to exist The bribery of Congress gets regulatory capture With corporate stooges appointed to places of power Where they oversee and protect their own corruption Safe from the laws in the arms of their ivory tower. Don’t know where we go from here It’s all fear and greed and greed and fear Hope that something better will appear For now we’ll have to leave it there
