America, Inc. Poem by raggindragon

America, Inc.


I am for the Obama Health Care law.
But what really sticks in my craw
is the provision that requires everyone buy
health care insurance from the Corporation - why?
If you don't, you will be forced to pay
a tax penalty. Let my say
this about that. It is not about medicine or health care,
rather, it is about corporate welfare.
It is about commercial insurance - corporate profit!
That does not sit
well with me. I no longer have the right to decide
how not to spend my money - I am being taken for a ride.
Soon I will be required to purchase life insurance, monoxide
meters, the American flag
and everything else in the corporate bag.
All hail.
You had better support
your Corporation,
as mandated by the Supreme Court -
that, or pay a fine or go to jail!
