2. Reviving the patriotic spirit

Global this, global that, we have been slowly brainwashed with the protectionism argument that our love for fellow Americans has diminished.

After WW11 we were united in victory and togetherness yet now we are so segmented the corporatists dance right thru us.

We must focus on Americans first and don't let the corporatists use our social Populist kindness for others as a tool to stuff their pockets with global dollars.

Great song; great band; great message. K&R Scootaloo Apr 2015 #1
