Is it the human condition to be swayed by morons whose only talent is to talk big and vague? They get paid in bribes cannot turn on empathy toward those harmed "What's best for me is best" narrow-mindedness Cannot see past Cannot see: "What harms another, harms me" always Polluted the air to make some dough, now you're breathing the cancerous soot Lower the workers' pay live in a world of hungry thieves
