No. CXLIII: Equal GOPportunity

if things as they are benefit me
at your expense
that is how things should be

changes that might be of profit to you
at my expense
are strictly taboo

I want only that things be fair
by which I mean
HANDS OFF MY SHARE

what's mine is mine
what I have I've earned
your "disadvantages" — NOT my concern

I live and believe in the land of the free
I oppose anything
that won't profit me

since I benefit from status quo
if you suggest change
I'll always say no

how do I view life as a whole
I win you lose
I earned you stole

let me explain with clarity
you exist only
due to my charity

my ancestors won I am their heir
yours lost you suffer
and I really don't  care
