Congressman Scrooge: run
that "Surplus Population
Joke" by me once more.
Scrooge replies: people
suck up to you around here...
God, I love this place!
Great Elevator
Speech...you're over 40?
We hired someone else.
Take a pay cut, grin
through your boss's jokes..ah, Stockholm
Syndrome in Action.
Executive Blues
skimming paychecks is hard work...
tax exile awaits.
A conspiracy
of stocks speaks louder than guns
drop the greenmail bombs.
Your pension blows up,
you won't work till you drop?
only when pigs fly.
My dreams ran aground:
this scratch off ticket netted
me...only 5 bucks.
Lobbying: my way
of saying..."It's return
on investment time."
The poor grow poorer,
because...you cannot feast on
air and promises.
Class warfare, you say?
true enough: why rock your boat
when I can sink it?
Hey Mr. Banker:
Remember...As long as I breathe,
my hope burns bright!
