Joeyess – "DFH (Dirty Fucking Hippies)" (2009)
2009/09/27
Hats off to my friend PK for passing this one on to me. I've been avoiding politics and political themed songs for a while now, but this one is good! A must listen for all you United States of America Citizens out there.
After Obama was elected I gave out a sigh of relief. I trust the Democrats a lot more than the obviously selfish, obviously hypocritical, obviously untrustworthy, and probably evil Republican Party (some are obviously evil, some are just probably). I am however vastly disappointed in both parties and politicians in general. So many problems seem preventable or solvable if we can control peoples' greed and fear. But politicians are generally a fearful and greedy group. My grandmother always referred to them all as crooks and liars, and I agree with her. Even though we "elect" them they are not to be trusted. Too easily they seem to forget about The United States Constitution's first sentence, and particular the part that says "promote the general Welfare". The word is PROMOTE. Look it up!
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Our politicians have sold out to corporations and Wall Street. We, the people, are only involved once every few years to decide which crooks will be elected. Crook A or Crook B. That is the choice we get. Watch "The Corporation".
I'm with Joeyess. "The dirty fucking hippies were right." Are right. And probably will continue to be right, until we replace the criminals running the country!!!
PS: I'm not 100% sure how to classify this, but Spoken Word meets Progressive Rock seems about right.

Best line:
"Turns out the socialism was for them, the capitalism was for us."
Totally! All the "capitalists" in the corporations that have received, benefited from, or supported in any way the bailouts are hypocrites! I believe they should have to pay back every penny. Meanwhile, what about the people? We are clearly less important to government interests and thus, no bailout for us. Pay cuts, unemployment, and half-assed bills to reform our health care system (that do nothing to solve the root cost issues) are what we can expect.
Socialism is a dirty word, but I want many things to be socialized and evenly provided across the entire US population, like road & transit construction & maintenance, public safety, fire safety, water supply, and public education. Oh wait, they already are for the most part. So why not more things that EVERYONE needs, like health care, electricity, garbage management & recycling programs, and higher education, to name a few? Couldn't each be far more efficient, and thus ultimately cheaper, if implemented and managed properly? Isn't it silly that my street of two dozen houses on it has 3 different garbage trucks from 3 different companies come to haul away the trash, all on the same day? The wasted gas and work hours alone, all in the name of capitalism, are just stupid!
