If we are a free country why does everything cost so much? Society will not help those stuck in a cycle of poverty The many cannot help themselves So poor stay poor and the rich keep expanding the size of their bank accounts Cannot save the hungry or the homeless so we might as well save face Mistaken for freedom is decision We are given few choices to make us feel like we are in control but that power is just an illusion It is a free country to the privileged and an imprisoned country to the impoverished
