Robin Hood Wanted

by Gypsy Blue Rose

 

 

The time has come

King X and his court jester D

have robbed the poor

to gift the avaricious rich.

>⇒

WANTED:

We need a Robin Hood

brave and with excellent aim 

an expert archer with bow and arrows

to eliminate hate and division

and stand for truth and justice

>⇒

He must have faith in God,

Jesus would not stand 

for giving to the rich

and taking from the poor

He was unquestionably against 

the greedy, corrupted, richest on earth 

 

 
 
 





-- Avaricious= is greed of gain; excessively acquisitive especially in seeking to hoard riches

The House of republican Representatives has passed the fiscal budget making huge cuts to benefit the richest billionaires in our country. Medicare, Medicare, Social Security and social security disability insurance will be slashed. Programs that affect the majority of Americans, mostly elders and disable people. One out of five Americans have medicade.

What does it mean for people like me and you? I am disabled and my only source of income is SSID which I paid for in wages throughout my life. I also depend on medicaid Health Care Insurance, without it I can get very sick and die.

70 million retired elders and disabled people receive SSI or SSDI. What is going to happen to them? If Elon and Donald have their way, our economy will collapse. Health care companies would lose a huge part of their income.

70 million SSI and SSDI individuals expend money on health care, housing, food, utilities, clothes, cars, gas, etc. Also, our homeless population would increase in tremendous numbers. How would our communities deal with that? I am not even counting all the fired Federal employees, policemen, teachers, firemen, and VETERANS. Employers will be hurt too.


What is happening to our country? Our freedom means something. The Statue of Liberty used to welcome immigrants from around the world, with open arms. But now Donald Trump is selling "Residency Gold Cards" for five million dollars! One more rip-off along with trump bibles, MAGA hats, t-shirts, Donald Trump collector play cards, alcohol, coins, casinos, a football league, and the list goes on.

Our country and our freedom are up for sale. Trump admitted in an interview in the Oval Office that he would welcome Russians if they had the money to buy the 5 million Golden Card. This corrupted and incompetent man aims to be a king or a dictator like Putin, Hitler, Kim Jong Un, and others. He called Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky a dictator and sided with Putin in his war.

Thank you very much for your excellent review and kind words.
