The Hypothetical Candidate
Say I run for Congress as
the anti-Walmart candidate?
That's taking on an entity
mightier than most nations.
As a sort of nation then, with
a domestic and foreign policy.
Its workers--excuse me, Associates!--
menaced by even thinner pay envelopes
should I succeed. The Chamber of Com-
merce exercising its greasy mouth &
money; China, of course, leading ally, coy-
ly chipping in to boost my adversary: True &
Thoroughly Dependable Pillsbury Doughboy.
Not legal, but where there's a way it
gets willed. I’m routed! Hammered
also by the Cross of Jesus–-in a land
of bribery, the religious
proving the easiest.
