mr bush tear down that transfer system


privatization of SSI?

why?

 its real simple

ITS PART OF DE-SOCIALIZATION
AMERICAN STYLE 

=====================================

the elephant housers
on behalf 
of their korporate sponsors
are out to tear down 
whats left 
of 
the new deal 
public financial transfer system 
 once and for all

-------- lady eve ghosted this part---------

then i'll
 prance forth

and answer the query

should we fight em?

 
-----------------------------------------------------

today

 when
 policy options 
 come down 
 to choices 
of direction 

to whither x ....?

 at least 
    within 
the nation's  financial 
 transfer systems
one thing iz
            "perfectly clear"


those  that are now 
fully  "socialized"
ie 
those that are now run 
thru  a " state"
 tax and entitlement system

go ahead
look at em
any
ofem

any one of  these public
transfer  systems 
and 
you'll find 
the same 
 nice neat
2 pronged attack


a two  party  fork 
                in the policy road 

oneprong
one  paradigm 
one path forward 

iz the GOP 
          
"this  mother-fucker's another amtrack"

the other path ahead
 
THE JACK ASS PARADIGM
             
" lets  postal service the old  bastard "

both say

 you choose america

or better yet
let uz choose for ya

and the hobsons choice?


either 
 we just 
castrate
the brute   ?


or 

 we fucking 
totally abolish 
the monstrosity ?

---------------------------------------
 as an example
of the more fashionable 
latter approach :

most elephant boys 
  in the house
      paint
  a ghastly train wreck acomin'
  amtrack like view
      of the SSI 
                transfer system 

"deficits
 brake downs
 run away costs...."

in moments of broad vision

they try to help us 
 step back

 let uz  see 
social security
for what its become:

 a woeful
   scandalous 
   anachronistic 
  pathetically 
creaky 
rumbling 
brake down laner

a god aweful  throw back 

a system 
long long long ago 
by passed 

by what ?

"by the advent
  of personal computers ?"

"shit no 
 by the advent of common sense " 
----------------------------------- 

"today we can do lots lots better
we prolly always could "

here's the solution :


"personal private retirement  accounts "

                  
 the familly  passenger car 
            of elder income provision 

 totally superior 
to that amtrack like 
 mass transit  
glander riden
 diabetic  megasaur 
                      SSI
--------------------------------------------------
on this one 

 the elephant boys
are out for heads 

they 
 don't just want 
  to streamline SSI 

 just keep it around 
in a bottle some where 

just   
      compact it

         alter its rig

         render it 
            unable to compete
                 for the lucrative "bits"

no 
they leave 
that nurse ratchet 
lobotomy approach
to the jack asses

 
unlike postal delivery 

for the GOP 

there is no
good  part 
in the bad whole 
of SSI 

there 
can not be 
a taking away
for  private profit
 of "  good stuff"
and a leaving behind
of 
all the messy rest   

nope:

there is no 
  air  parcel post 
             portion
                 of SSI  

no way


nope


the bitch is indivisible 


this ATTACK
   is about gettin 
all 
   or 
nothin at all

takin out
the whole ball of wax

----------------------------------------

if the GOP prevails here 

and my crsytal ball sez prolly 

SSI ain't about
 to get 
a  simple
jack ass 
 close shave
 and a buzz cut

no 
 signifigent 
 personel layoffs

no partial  
spin offs

no 
movement
to
last chance

"yer still public
but at  arms length"

no 
"yer on yer own"

no 
"learn to  float yerself"

nope
thats all
  soft headed balder dash 

SSI  must gooooooooooo 

why?

cause SSI
is too good to live 


yes too good 

too good 

too efficient

too unlike amtrack

--------------------------------------

" no private outfit
 can make a buck
so long as 
the SSI is up there 
to compete against" 

so bye bye SSI

-----------------------------------------

best way
to make it go away

smear it 

big lie the mother  

claim she's  exactly 
what she  isn't

claim she's 
          a financial amtrack

----------------------------------
there can be no chance 
for SSI clones

 MASS PUBLIC TRANSFER  SYSTEMS
designed 
for other areas 
  of social import 
must get atomized now 


before healthcare
  provisioning 
is contaminated 

no way

if the elephant boys 
have their way

ideas like 
 single payer health 
 will never 
 get to lift off 

And
for the  damn good reason 
       SSI 
won't be around to spawn it 
 

 THE SSI clear superiority

must become an urban myth

to any and all

  make way for the less 
then even second best:

  private profit
          yielding
              wall street  alternatives


  yes  
listen up
           grand kids

 far 
better or better still 

we  bury 
             SSI now

bury her 
and  
        bury her  quick 

before innocent well meaning
                               folks 
stupidly 
 get to wonderin'
   
its that 


or 
 we all 
have to go through 
some thin'
like 
what swedes go thru 



  ( Eve II )
--------------------------------

(below  is pure herb  )

----------------------------------------

well pokes what go ya think?


should we fight em 
on this
 SSI  giggle ?

FIGHT THE ELEPHANT WALK over  ?


i say 
nope 

at least 
  not really hard anyway


why  
a waste 
the  time and money


i say 
if thats where they're headed

let em try 

let em try rippin'  up 
what remains 
of the post war 
             social contract

let em try 

and 
if they can 
 roll wagery
into a wall street
 poker parlor 

fine 

let the geeps 
play a dummy hand or two

hey

maybe you gotta 
really feel the  burn
before ya learn 

let jerusalem fall 

let the wally profiteers  
       destroy 
           the meany sweeney 
                      temple of labor

our job 
our task
our mission
  remains the same


  as pure uncircumcised 
           red wagery
                       stinkers
 we    
 go on the record

    sing out 
       the tale's final chapter  

like all 
  decent klass  prophets
                     should

tell the klass rape consenting 
                 wagery geeps

just how bad
its GOIN TO   END UP
FOR EM 

 bad bad bad bad bad 


GANG 

I MEAN

   tie down your baby 
cause its gonna 
really start 
to blow 
around here 

TYPE BAD 
---------------------------------------

  we enlightened ones all know


its  just
   part 
of the zero retirement scenario

the minimum belower wage rate 

   maximum be higher hour gig  

these 
 toiling flesh feeders
      under contract
to   tower tots
           got planned 
                              for yuz all



i like to look at it this way

cause it reminds me of dante



they're out 
 to  make
 
the  purgatory of labor 
  rest squarely

on  a RAU 
thats as close
 to a living inferno
as posible 


they strive always
to make the fucker

DEEPER DARKER
AND  
WAY WAY DEADLIER

and  HERE'S WHERE ssi jiggers come 
up for redaction

make the RAU
IN THE END 
darn right 
 UNESCAPABLE 
IF YOU DON'T STAY JOBBLED 
TILL YOUR USELESS SCRAP 

A PLACE 
NEVER TO END UP IN 
UNLESS YOU'RE ALREADY 
TO DIE ANYWAY 

-----------------------------------
agitation on stuff like this

big basic strategic class whorping
stuff 
in a league with 
the more glamorous
 anti iroccupation pitter patter

to me

we should
 say the
 self evident truth
and 
 just a few too many times


okay go ahead use

gassy stentorian tones


but fuck
for the love of mike

 then move on

 get back to
kickin the boss
right where ya know  
 it hurts 
best
right 
at  the point of profit
