The quote is from an American author, Paul McGuire.
The message is seductive, “we will take care of you.” Whenever people look to government as their saviour, totalitarianism always rears its head and people loose their freedom. You will have a tiny upper class, or as they like to say, 1%, and a massive under class which will be unemployed or the working class.
WHEN THE CITIZENS SURRENDERED
A sadness lingers across the land
The era of productivity has died
No more eager workers will the economy demand
Languishing citizens have surrendered their pride
The elite a mere peanut in the barrel
Will they too be diminished over time?
Can this country be no longer in peril
Because there is simply no further it can decline?
Chasing rainbows is not an option
The pot of gold has ceased to exist
We drank their koolaide or some concoction
All because of a free ride most wouldn't resist
Paintings are all now black and white
Our future less liberty is set in stone
I was there when the republic was stable and right
Now with too few patriots I stand alone
