The spirit was freedom and justice And it's keepers seem generous and kind It's leaders were supposed to serve the country But now they won't pay it no mind 'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy And now their vote is a meaningless joke They babble about law and order But it's all just an echo of what they've been told Yeah, there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watchin' Our cities have turned into jungles And corruption is stranglin' the land The police force is watching the people And the people just can't understand We don't know how to mind our own business 'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us Now we are fighting a war over there No matter who's the winner We can't pay the cost 'Cause there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watching (America) America where are you now?

One of the great tunes of the Boomer generation.
Thank you for this, OP. They were one of the greatest imports from Canada that the USA has ever had.
They tried SO HARD to warn us ("The Pusher"; "The Monster"...). In those days I already had very powerful hints that the MSM was corrupt and corrupting. However, many of us still had no idea that the "monster" was international in scope and supported by the very taxes we paid.
The concept of a 'uni-party' (play-pretend opponents of Democrats vs. Republicans) was far beyond my comprehension. During that era, John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, maybe Martin Luther King, Jr. and George Carlin (of all people) were the only public figures - of whom I was aware - who came close to grasping the scope of the monstrosity. Of course, the beast is centuries old and very clever about hiding it's origins and intentions. Most of those who knew were murdered or otherwise silenced.
Along with his many other accomplishments - for his exposure of the "inter-agency/international shadow government" - our Beloved PDJT will be revered by history. Let us honor him - and dear Steppenwolf - by giving and doing all we can to reclaim freedom for all of humanity and consigning the 'Monster' to the dustbin of history. This is OUR time. "Some things ARE worth fighting for".
We have to win or perish. I didn't vote Trump in 16, but to my amazement he was getting things done, and I approve of 99% of his policy, so in 2020 he got my vote and is the best president in my lifetime.
