For 20 years Capitol Hill has passed laws
to favor the rich and powerful
while the middle class crumbles
under the weight of taxation
and the working class and

by privatization of health, education,
Insufficient prenatal care
gives way to astronomical infant

We were blind to Re agan's
swindling in -law corporation assets,
A

intelligence and tracking software,
and turning it over to O 'Brien,
of Reagan's arms for hostages,
October Surprise.
Then there's George Bush,
whose public persona
is absolutely one of virtual reality,
considering his central role in the

CIA's covert operations
around the world for more
than three decades.

In addition to his son Neil's
known SNL ties,
his brother Prescott,
by Japanese companies
is a close friend and business
associate of Leonel Martinez,
A

an active supporter of the Contras
who has been investigated
for four murders
and for smuggling cocaine and marijuana
into the U .S.
Martinez is currently serving

has been U .S. policy
for over two centuries.
However, when uncensored media
opinion on the war effort,
it became necessary to conduct all
subsequent military campaigns
within the realm of virtual reality.
The Gulf War set new standards
for wartime secrecy.
A
Am
How do we make up our minds
when we aren't told
about the thousands of Iraqi soldiers
A
Am
buried alive by U .S. tanks?
Or the Marines' use of napalm?
A
Am
Or the denial and on
going cover -up
of Iraqi civilian casualties?
Or that reporters were routinely harassed
by government officers?
Both CBS and NBC
A
Am
refused to broadcast
uncensored footage
taken inside Iraq
by independent producers.
Do we believe Bush's claims
of massive Iraqi buildup
on the Arabian border
While we watch the war
do we realize that every
two days in the Iraq war
we spent 1 billion?
That's as much money
as a whole year's allocation
for AIDS treatment and research,
and that 70 % of that money is wasted
on cruel and pointless
animal experimentation.
In 30 days, the Gulf War cost more than the
whole federal annual allowance
for affordable houses,
environmental protection, job training,
Head Start,
alternative energy programs,
low income legal aid,
and handicapped education
combined.
Through all of this, the government,
corporations, and media
on the women's and environmental
movements.
Lawsuits, surveillance,
and harassment of activists,
Am
A
coupled with misleading ad
vertising campaigns
made by these movements.
Dan Quayle blaming
the decay of inner cities
radio personalities
who reflect corporate conservatism,
Am
ridicule and distort gains made in gender
and environmental protection.
Am

This is just information to assimilate.
You take what you want from it.
we will continue to be blind.
You make up your own mind.
