"Sing A Song Of Sixpence"

From Free Market Fairy Tales

Sing a song of Parliament,
Pockets full of cash,
Fraudulently claiming
And adding to their stash;
With their ploy discovered
They said they'll give it back.
If you or I had done the same
We'd promptly get the sack.

Sing a song of freebies,
Snouts all in the trough.
Giving back their ill-got gains
Is just not good enough.
Sponging off our earnings
With a likely tale,
If working folk had done the same
They'd soon end up in jail.

Written for Parliament, applies equally well to what we in the Puget Sound region often refer to a s"the lesser Washington"

Go read the whole thing.
