Uncle Sam's Generosity

Uncle Sam prints money - galore
for the stimulus package to score
devaluing the dollar more and more
giving banks and Wall street payoffs
while the people are blessed with layoffs
thus having their leisure enjoyment
of ever increasing unemployment,
citizens now happily on park benches rest
after landing on the streets - dispossessed,
though we spend loads of our money
to make life in Iraq, Afghanistan
and our 'good pals' in Pakistan
for their folks more sunny.
