Today’s Labor Quote: composer Steve Jones from “Love Songs from the Liberation Wars”

3/31/2017

 
Picture
Capitalism is a giant cloud of cigarette smoke blown in the face of humanity
Working folk just cough and choke
All for the boss’s vanity
They try to deny
They take 9/10 of the pie
This land was made for you and me!
Capitalism is Just Cigarette Smoke in the Face of Humanity
