Social Justice?

"Only those who are ideologically opposed to military programs think of the defense budget as the first and best place to get resources for social welfare needs." Herman Kahn

SOCIAL JUSTICE?

For nothing that he understands

For the whim of ideological political plans

To flex the muscles of an impotent leader

Our soldiers become his brother's keeper

They break him of his own free will

Brutal bootcamps test them still

He bows to the ideals he has never known

Yet he is barely grown

He leaves his wife to go far away

Facing bullets and bombs for countless days

His children are born without their dad

For foreign causes that drive him mad

Many women have left their homes

On endless sands, with guns they roam

Family life is put on hold

For the military, their lives controlled

Some will make it back to see

Social leveling has attacked the free

The ne'r do wells have come to score

The benefits they weren't  working for

The military will take a hit

To pay for this social justice shit

Is this the way we repay our vets?

We've sunk as low as as low can get
