OPEN WIDE
“Opportunity knocks, let it in.
Captive workers and voters: win, win.
Votes and labor are free
Once you buy them from me.
So much money to make, let’s begin.”

VOTO FINISH
“Immigration concerns are what spur us,
Opposition will never deter us,
And the line of the souls
Heading out to the polls
Stretches all the way down to Honduras.”
(2018)
CARAVANGUARD
What’s the difference between immigration
And an enemy-driven invasion?
The answer’s been given
By Cloward and Piven:
It’s the numbers that topple a nation.

RAZED
All the teenagers think it’s so great
That the minimum wage will inflate:
Pretty soon we will see
Just how happy they’ll be
Unemployed at a much higher rate.
(2014)
WAGE WAR
A burger the price of a steak?
A $10 chocolate shake?
$10 fries
And hot apple pies?
Who remembers “deserving a break”?

TWO-WAY TRAFFIC
It came as an inspiration,
The solution to mass immigration:
For each incoming worker,
Deport one native shirker
To some socialist paradise nation.
(2001)
NEW WAGE MOVEMENT
In the past a young worker aspired
To do what advancement required.
But, with the new rage
To raise minimum wage,
He’ll be lucky to even get hired.

BIG DISAPPOINTMENT
“Though we had a nice dinner and chat,
It still seems that our first date fell flat:
I just have to admit
I like girls who are fit,
And not girls who are morbidly fat.”
