We the people and the workers

We the people and the workers

Want more reward for our labour,

You profit and get rich off our sweat

We give blood, we give our best,

And in return you give us minimal

Treat us no better than animals,

Do you owe us a better living

Of course you fucking do,

If we refuse to work the gigs up for you,

As your entrepreneurial kite won’t fly

Without the workers by your side,

Understand we are as much the wealth producers

To deny this is a lie and to achieve your aims,

As the people and the workers we surrender our lives

But maybe one day that may change,

As we discover and use collectivist ways

Setting up cottage industries,

And start working for ourselves

Then start cutting you out,

I think then we see how it distributes better all the wealth.

    1. There is no respect shown to workers or they’d get a better wage, better conditions so they can achieve a better standard of living. Thank you for reading this and for understanding and for appreciating my friend 🙏 Faux
