LABOR POEM OF THE WEEK: Boss made a $

Chris Garlock | Published on 3/22/2024

Boss made a $

I made a dime

That was a poem

From a simpler time.

 

Now boss makes a thousand

And gives us a cent

While he's got employees

Who can't pay the rent.

 

When boss makes a million

And the workers make jack

That's when we strike

And take our lives back.
