But you know the right wing has one idea:
rich get richer.
In their backyard grows three cherry trees.
These threes have nothing in common.
These trees do not get along.
But as the right wing craft their policies
in order to get voters, philosophers, and pundits on board
with making the rich richer,
they can always, always find
the perfect cherry to pick.
They have money →
They have media →
They have the throne →
The ymake money
And if it was JUST the Koch brothers
or Manchin
or the Trump family
or Putin
we could defeat them.
But the system’s sickness is such
that whomever in the deep caves
under the Misty Mountains
happens to find
the Exploitation Loophole of Power
will float to the top.
This is called emergence.
Oh, they are evil all right.
Don’t get me wrong on that.
They have mauvaise foi.
“I have a fiduciary duty
to plunder the Earth and the public coffers.”
