I do not care about niqabs and pot

I do not care about niqabs and pot,

Child tax credits worth a little or a lot,

Who said what when seventeen,

Or peed in a cup-how obscene.

I see through wars started for gain,

Pretending we care about people in pain.

The campaign managers must laugh into the night,

Watching partisans insult and fight.

Yet it doesn't really matter which party gets in,

The banks own it all and they always win.
