Keynote Speaker

It’s said that,
in polite company,
one should avoid discussing
religion, economics or politics

The key to religion
is to pacify
the lower class with having less

The key to economics
is to encourage
the middle class to strive for more

The key to politics
is to protect
the upper class from other classes

Small wonder then,
in polite company,
that we so often discuss
religion, economics or politics

  1. True...but some things, like having sex on the coffee table, are frowned on in polite company.

You may put in your 2¢ worth, but I'll only pay you a penny for your thoughts.
