The banks took it all away.

Kadizzle ran across a song that sums up our current state of affairs. Republicans are just an arm of the wealthy. The rich have bought the government. This happened once before and it brought on the depression. People figured it out that time and taxed the rich. We are right back in the same spot. The song " Torn Screen door" sums it up. The lyrics are listed below, and you can hear the song with the video posted below 

Late summer day and my 

Love and I went walking

Over the hills and fields

We walked, laughing and talking

Came across an old farm house

Standing broken and bare

It used to be someone's home

But now no one lives there

There's a red barn standing 

Held together with nails and dust

And a tired old Massy Harris

All wires and rust

Weeds overgrown in a garden

Sown with care

It used to be someone's home

Now no one lives there

And through the crack

 In the window pain

I hear the sound 

Of the falling rain

Another farm being left run down

Another family moved into town

Had a life they tried to save

But the bank took it all away

Hung a sign on an old screen door

Nobody lives here anymore

They worked their fingers 

To the bone

Nothing left

They can call their own

Packed it under leaden skies

With just the wheat

Waving them goodbye

Had a life they tried to save

But the banks took it all away

Hung a sign on a torn screen door

Nobody lives here anymore
