Despite uncertainty, our voices still remain
But it’s not clear to me to what extent our choices are constrained
I mean look at all the money the Fed spent for the nation
To perpetuate pervasiveness of gentrification
We can criticize the lenders but the system is to blame
Maybe AIG rejoices but the peasants feel the pain
Citizens losing houses and others questioning their pensions
Passing policies previously beyond comprehension
Struggling to work with realist and liberal assumptions
But Neoliberalism’s dead because the system doesn’t function
So what now? At least a substantial wealth transfer
We can wear a band-aid but that doesn’t cure cancer

This is a sweet lyric, or whatever it is....
Cancer needs to be cut out I think. With a scalpel.
Changing the way you think can help too. So I hear. Apparently, eating good and getting exercise can go a long way as well.
if the system is not working properly, we have to ensure that the problems get worse and the system falls apart completely. Everyone on this blog should take out a sub-prime mortgage. the extra 5 houses on the marker could be enough to push the banks past the limit of despair. but if the banks only had a flu, they are going to come back stronger in a couple of years. If this happens, i wont be worried about canadians or americans. ill be worried for the middle east which will become americanized once and for all. at least maybe then we'll allow hookas back inside public spaces.
haha. I agree though. If the system is failing, let's give it that extra little push so we can start again - clean slate.
