Children's Song. The wheels on Metro don't go around, don't go around, don't go around. The wheels on Metro don't go around anywhere in town. The driver on Metro says "Please come back, please come back, please come back!" The driver on Metro says "please come back, when you've all calmed down." The escalators don't go up or down, up or down, up or down. The escalators don't go up or down, anywhere in town. The riders on Metro go "Whaa whaa whaa, whaa whaa whaa, whaa whaa whaa!" The riders on Metro go "Whaa whaa whaa" as the system runs aground.

Here’s another messenger telling US what WE don’t want to know and are outraged at what’s been going on for many years right under our noses. America’s awareness of it’s serious problems is directly proportionate to the percentage that vote but a fraction of them too. The enemy of liberty is US. Ben Laddan is laughing in his grave. He wrote more history than this generation is prepared to know……………..
