In the laws of the land, she has no rights; in government she has no voice. And in spite of another principle recognized in this Republic, namely, that 'taxation without representation is tyranny,' she is taxed without being represented.

Revolution Now, Freedom
revolution now...
it's no longer
a matter of choice....
too much hurt and need,
too much despair;
and you're not doing
anything real to fix it.
we've been fed the lie,
but it doesnt fill the bellies
of the hungry, the jobless,
and the poor...
while you keep trading,
exacting profit from oppression,
and insulating yourselves
from the beating of hearts.
no taxation without representation;
we threw tea in the harbor
and tyranny in the ditch.
freedom doesnt last forever...
sometimes you have to
take it back again!

Taxation Beyond Death
A taxation beyond the grave
A bill without receipt
A rental disagreement
For the socially deceased
A thought of public space
The potential revenue made
To fill the coffers of government
Money from the grave
The subtle moves they placed
Not just a place of mourning
But prime advertising space
Then the service fees incurred
Maintenance and service
Cost too much to the public
It became in our own interest
Or that they would have us know
That the resting land taxation
Was as just and rightful
And so perfectly legal
The coffers filled by coffins
A taxation on the socially deceased
No longer a grave yard
But national rental space

The New Inner-City Slave Plantation
The now-a-day slave or labor force
The ruling-class determines the course
The political master’s pastor contorts
Politics and policy aborts
The new inner city slave-plantation
Human and civil rights violation with extreme taxation
Work like a blind jackass
Support and finance the ruling class
Being bi-partisan-just a mask
Cultured career criminals civilizing crass
The new inner city slave-plantation
Human and civil rights violation with extreme taxation
The political engineers of The Greater Good own
The inner city war-zone
The psychotropic drug sets the tone
Slavery as the new world order is the throne
The new inner city slave-plantation
Human and civil rights violation with extreme taxation
Multi-tasking a labor saving device
Freedom of movement has no right
Monopolized government enslaved all might
The inner city slave- plantation private and prime
Real estate blight
The new inner city slave-plantation
Human and civil rights violation with extreme taxation
The thirteenth amendment of the constitution
On the inner city slave-plantation no social, no economical,
No educational, no political absolution
On the inner city slave-plantation, indentured servants,
Chattel slaves, still considered Black Gold
By the God Fearing slave codes used to control
The new inner city slave-plantation
Human and civil rights violation with extreme taxation
On the new inner city slave-plantation
The American Flag can not wave
Even Democracy is revered as a Black Slave

SUBJECTS NOT MENTIONED Mar 31st,2011
Why is dying with dignity hidden as an election subject?
By the people we are compelled to elect and can’t suspect,
Why is binding referendums never mentioned out there?
I can see you now looking around saying, “What and Where? ”
Because these subjects are kept hidden by the Ottawa elites,
They want to keep their parliamentary or Senate seats,
No proportional representation instead of first-past-the-post,
Because when three candidates ran, guess who got the most?
The opposition candidates together got more votes,
Therefore more people opposed the winner’s winning quotes,
So much for democracy when the looser is allowed to win,
And proportional representation is considered a major sin.

Set Date Elections Mar 1st,2011
So we are not going to have an election anytime soon,
We don’t have set-date elections now or during a full moon,
Where referendums and propositions are completely banned,
Are you having a problem with this or don’t you understand?
And proportional representation is banned in first-past-the-post,
Though the combined opposition candidates had many more votes,
And you can’t elect your prime minister using his/her name,
The name on the ballot is a party member – not the same.
And first past the post wins in all our elections,
Proportional representation forbidden and no objections,
There is no doubt about it but that the good guys should win,
And most of the other types should all begin again.
