The real object of all this disgusting hypocrisy
is the justice system begun by the founding fathers
to protect average citizens from just such private justice
which is the legalization of corporate murder for profit.]

Plausible deniability pulls the wool over our eyes
as we stampede, lemming-like to engineered suicide.
And since there’s little or no evidence to trace back to them
there’s no accountability for this most perfect crime.

We submit to those claiming authority,
because it’s easier than thinking for ourselves,
and we give silent consent to their parasitic manifest destiny,
as we do their wet work for them by willingly killing ourselves.

There’ll be no comfortable retirement for you.
If you’ve got a job, you’ll drop dead there on the line.
All we are is notches on their metaphorical gun.
and remember they want two-thirds of us dead - not alive.

So those of our brothers who can no longer keep up
the competitive lifestyle underwriting capitalism
are destined for socially-engineered self-execution
since it’s cheaper and easier than helping them

unless help is putting that metaphorical gun
into the hand of an “unnecessary” brother,
and helping him to raise it up to his head
so it appears he’s the one doing the culling,

or putting actual guns into the hands of other brothers
and selling products that poison people and the environment.
Multiply that by thousands more disposable brothers
and watch the bodies pile up along with the profits.

Carefully-orchestrated scarcity and restrictions
are the future planned for us who comprise The Many
so The Few who have more than they could ever use
can appropriate the very last American penny.

Some have to die so that others can live well.
But swiftness of implementation? Oh no, that wouldn’t be safe!
The obvious exposure of their modus operandi
was Hitler’s and the Nazi’s one fatal mistake.

Thus the auto-genocide will be carried out slowly
so it’s hard to see and that’s the beauty of the method.
Results don’t easily track back to the instigators,
and the blame can easily be laid at the feet of the dead.

That way enough “useless eaters” can be culled
to let Earth heal while the Rich idle on country estates,
allowing them to recuperate as they contemplate
more exploitation, murder and rape at a future date

since they have an entitlement to live in obscene decadence
while we have none to food, water, shelter and medication.
Elimination for some is thus intentional, essential,
if the Rich are to regroup and do it all over again.

UPSET?

FEMA R.E.X. 84 allows military bases
to be closed down and converted into prisons.
In 2006, KBR, a subsidiary
of Dick Cheney’s Halliburton was given

a multi-million dollar contract to build
detention-processing capabilities
to expand Immigration’s Detention
and Removal Operation’s facilities

in order to house people in the event
of an emergency influx of illegal immigrants,
a national disaster or any “NEW GOVERNMENT
PROGRAMS IN NEED OF RAPID DEVELOPMENT.”
