Silk Trade
I’m a lobbyist for the wealthy. Thus, in the slang, a silk merchant. And, naturally, rewarded enough to be
among them.
The public is beset with pie charts showing how much their
own slice has diminished.
What to recognize is that my clients want the whole pie.
Historians tell us it can’t sustain. Unrest and revolution
in the works. Uh huh. Some local unrest possible, in those
places where people still have a pair.
Hey! Volkswagen wants to build a factory. Do they put it in
Boston? More likely the South, where, for all the macho
posturings and guns, you find the most docile workers
in the world.
And for them, it’s not that far back to gnawing a turnip
for a special treat.
So, if you oppose, start buying legislators. Most not
anxious to leave the stable. You might have some luck
with Democrats, since other side exhibits universal
suck-ass zeal for our cause.
