Who pays the pandemic bills?

Who pays, we pay

Just like every other time,

The pandemic bill

Will be ours to pay

And we will be resigned,

But it won’t be the rich

It’ll be the low paid and the poor

Just like every time before,

Paying for the messed up PPE

For the failed track and trace system

That sated Serco’s greed,

The government wasted all that money

Now they instill a pay freeze,

That is actually a pay cut

For the likes of you and me,

Bills keep rising

But wages seldom do,

The public accept this

They haven’t got a clue,

Corporations and pharma’s

Got rich through the pandemic,

Thanks to the corruption

That in the system is systemic,

They use division between the private and the public sector

To act as a distraction while laughing at all of us,

Low paid pay again

The rich get away with it the same,

Just like they did in the financial crash

Where we suffered years of austerity,

Because of the bankers hash

But as we suffered to pay it back,

The bankers increased their cache

Of money while no one was watching

After giving out loans in a way that could be described as rash,

But the rich always prosper

While the low paid struggle to survive,

Welcome to capitalism, which fucks with the working peoples lives.

  1. It’s heartbreaking, the government is making the most of the pandemic in order to make the rich richer and the poor poorer 😦

        The world around me seems a mess, freedoms being taken away, police getting more egoic by the day, shops closed, people afraid of each other, children wearing masks..
