A CEO has been assassinated! A vigilante killer in a hood Took up the mantle for which they were fated, With three shots did thus for the common good. "Don't celebrate a murder!" cry the feds, As though between the classes there weren't war. They hope to save their own cowardly heads, To keep us all from settling out the score. Executives of healthcare sell our lives To eke out shares of profit and receive The accolades from shareholders that drive The never-ending grind of corporate greed. A murder is a solitary kill; Let thousands die? that’s just the market’s will.
