Government is not our friend

Government is not our friend

It’s just an entity working for their own ends

They spend money fighting wars

And not feeding the poor

They spend money increasing their wealth

And spend little on care and health

Governments are ego trips for those who crave power

They promote fear that makes the innocent cower

They are self serving

They have become a corporate tool

And they exploit us

And treat us all as fools

Lining their own pockets

And if you question their right to rule

They will use their police

And bring down great force on you

To quieten your voice

They think it’s absurd

That we may think government is a choice.

Government is not our friend

It’s just an entity working for their own ends

They spend money fighting wars

And not feeding the poor

They spend money increasing their wealth

And spend little on care and health

Let’s think about this and question

What is government for?

If its not for looking after its people

If its not for ensuring everybody is equal

Instead dividing all by class

What use is government I ask?

If its focused on corporate wealth

And not on its citizens health

So just remember government is not your friend.

  2. What’s sad is that people put their trust in the government and give them so many chances. If a friend treated you the way the government does with its lies and its immoral actions then there would be repercussions and a total distrust of that friend.

  4. So true and more people need to know this. This is why I write about going off the grid and being self sufficient. So people don’t need to rely on the government, who could drop them at any moment.
