Money And Profit

what it comes down to
...in the end is...

the political machine,
...be it Democrat,
.....or Republican,

runs on the wheels
...of money and profit!

they'll throw a bone to the poor,
........now and then,

wave issues like flags,
....quote the founding fathers
.......when it behooves them.

but in the end.....
....money and profit.

tell me....
what did the founding fathers
...do in a similar situation?
