Turned against the people.

Get killed in a foreign country.

Which shows us how money
Spent on the state
Is lost for everything else.

Much like revisionist pamphlets.

Especially when they are Perpetual and vague.

People who get tax exemptions,
And that George Bush gives
Free charity funding to.

Which should start in our Parliaments
Against political power and abuse,
Not against our children.
