swine, and enemies of the people as has been done in damn near every
nation ever since the Stank of England was founded.
Well states have lent money, and the Pennsylvania Colony lent it. And
the French frawgs are lendin’ it. So the British fire on their late allies.
And every damn possible thing is done to prevent the American in Utah
or Montana from learning economics or history.

Even Marx KNEW what the abuses were. In fact he is pretty good at
