Wishing for less confusion in the political arena

Politicians acting like a bunch of screaming hyenas

Less pressure on business in the corporate jungle

So afraid of a new merger - they just might bungle

Hoping to see less crime in the streets

A union of criminals and cops all walking the same beat

Hope to see an increase in wages paid to the working class

Those who do all the dirty work-and are looked upon as a mere

Jackass

Yes my new year's resolution made in the good old USA

Will be to make the dreams of yesterday come true each and

Everyday

Auld Lang Syne a Scottish phrase meaning - the good old days

Let future generations look back at these days and give praise

The poet Robert Frost said there are no beginnings and no ends,-

Only middles

So let us jump aboard the middle of the peace train and with our

Friends we will cuddle

A new year is arriving let us end all hate and prejudice amongst ourselves

Let us begin the New Year with the love and peace left to us by Santa's

Little elves

Bravo David! You hit it right on the head, it's a shame that it can't be published in every newspaper across the land! Keep it up, your sentiments are felt by many.

Well another good job and by the way David, one of your resolutions came true. Workers will get a 12 cent increase in the minimum wage to a wopping $6.79 cents an hour pay. See not all is bad? Now that they have all that extra money they shouldn't be complaing about the cost of living. After all how ungrateful can people get? They should be happy they even have a job. We could send it somewhere else, don't they know that? Just a little sarcasim for the "haves"of this world to ponder. Best wishes, RTM.

Yeah, all the greatest architects in the world who design all these magnificent buildings would be useless without the real down to Earth laborers of the working class who actually build these structures. “God bless the working class”
