Those who continue
to rail against Obama's "socialism"
and are seriously considering
a vote for Donald Trump
might do well to remember
that even an actual
total redistribution of wealth
would leave them
with far more money
than a policy
where the president
files the country for bankruptcy
and then keeps
the nearly 17 trillion dollars
in gross domestic product
for himself.
And since Trump
owns all transportation
and has a giant fence
around both borders
(to avoid a polite
Canadian invasion
and all that entails)
such folks will now
have plenty of time
and plenty of justification
for their two favorite
pre-"Trumpocalypse" activities
of complaining
and giving up
on contributing anything
to society.
