Every Body Knows

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

  


I've only seen drips and drabs of Sin City while channel surfing, but it never made an impression on me.
So don't ask me how I ran across this video or why it caught my attention, it's one of life's mysteries.

At any rate, the song got me thinking about what's happening in Washington and on Wall Street lately:

The Banks Are Broke

Social Security And Medicare Are Insolvent

The Political System Is Corrupt Beyond Repair

Wall Street Bank Executives Are Thieves

The Stock Market Has Lost All Sense Of Reality 

Illegal Immigration Is Out Of Control
Nancy Pelosi Is Insane

The Inmates Are Running The Asylum

People are closing their eyes and desperately trying to make believe that all of this isn't true, but -

Every Body Knows
