The Best Scam ( perpetrated on woman, child and man)

Here take a drink
Psych,

You're about to spring a leak
Stick your finger in the dike,
Not the kind your gf lykes
The holds back water type;
Water they sell you to drink,
Tell em,
Go take a hike!

You know the bottled kind
Nestle, Desani, Aquafina,
A scam, on humankind;
They're laughing at us,
Like the hyena
All the way to the bank,
In their profitable,
Unregulated, arena!

Evian makes you naive
Do you or don't you think?
Canadian water we buy,
The kind that's found in your sink
Or in Ontario's watershed springs;
Hillsburgh and Aberfoyle
The stuff's more expensive
Than Canada's dirty oil.

Government allows corporations
To trap our natural resources
Then sell it back to us
They lead us like horses
To water                                                                                                        

Then make us drink,
What'll be left for our kids?
For once get pissed off!
Or for yourself think!

Bottled water is no safer than tap

Wake up from your slumber
Your perpetual nap,
The bottled water industry
Nestle, Coca Cola and Pepsi
Skate off with the profits,
Faster than Gretzky.

But wait there's more
Government gave them
Our keys to the store
It's not just bottled water
It's soft drinks, galore
They consume our finite resources
Like a money hungry whore.

Water siphoning Nestle
Sells it back to us for pay
To the ripe old tune
Of a million liters per day
Until 2017,                                                                                

Queens Park and Ottawa,
Will look the other way.
What do corporations have on these guys anyway?
Obviously they got some sway!

Non renewable plastic bottles
Into landfills do go
And the water to make them,
Like a river does flow
At the ballot box,
Politicians should know;
They're working for us!
Onto them,
Canada,
We do not bestow.

Killing Us Microsoftly

First there was plastic,
Many thought fantastic.

It wasn't too exciting 

Nor its look inviting.                                                

What did plastic do for us?

A more versatile spoon;

Now we have enough garbage
To ship to the moon.

What did plastic do to us?

Many agree it's bad;
The problem is, industry
Turning utility, into fad. 

Apart from its many uses 

There's a million and one abuses

On top of industry excuses -
Mainstream media silence,
Is tantamount to violence.
Maintaining the status quo
Is like a city,
With everyone named Joe.
If you find the reality too drastic,

What do you think of people;
Who wrap themselves in plastic?

Coming on the scene
Is something called graphene,
Like coffee with caffeine.
Pencil lead graphite
Impermeable and light                                                                              
Keeping it real;
It's stronger than U.S. steel.

The new wonder stuff,
Like a diamond in the rough;

Dare I say tough!

Graphene atomic view

A conductor of heat
And electricity both,
Marketers of graphene,
Swear it, like an oath.
It's thin, its transparent
Now that plastic's become aberrant
It would seem graphene
Is the lauded heir apparent.

Hold on a minute,
Not so fast.                                                                        

Researchers say
Our water filtration, will let it get passed
It will cut our innards, like swallowing glass.
Finding its way, 

Into the food we eat
Get absorbed by plants,
Like the carrot and the beet.

Graphene particles
Can be minute like nano
Take us out quick,
Like Tony Soprano;                                    
Get them on murder one,
"Book em Danno"
We'll be dead
Left in the ditch
In the end
Industry'll still be rich.

Chewing (out) The Fat(so)

Obesity's on the rise
Experts say;
And the finger of blame
Is pointed your way.

Diabetes, also on the rise,
Really should come
As no surprise;
When every meal
Is super-sized,
And the weight migrates,
Right to your thighs.

Follow what the experts say,
Staying active,
Is the only way.
The upper class benefit from it;
One requires means, just to stay fit.
Education failed the poor,
You get a gym class
And nothing more,
Than a fat ass;
Buying groceries,
At your, local convenience store.

Wait a minute!
Fat, skinny or whatever
There is something,
We can all do together!
Place the blame,
Where blame is due,
Keeping in mind,
Blame's no good for you.

We live in a society
Where food comes prepared;
 Media says, if only you compared,
The calories on this label or on that
Then just maybe, you wouldn't be fat!
 But they let industry off the hook,
Because its industry money that they took!

If Health Canada really cared,
We'd have basic ingredients,
Toxic additives would not be spared;
And hidden items would all be bared.                                            
Nobody's talking about the push for    
Preservative market shares,
Nobody's trying to expose,
food mogul fortune heirs;
Instead the public becomes, the big fat target
While industry poisons your
Supermarket.


If the lame duck FDA
So much as dared,
Strict regulation and enforcement;
Instead of food industry endorsement;
All these years, such a lack of standard,
By the very ones, to whom they've pandered;
While fat people,
Like minorities are slandered;            
Then maybe we wouldn't see
Such egregious manipulation
Of the big three!

Sugar, Salt and Fat,
Taken together,
Hit you like crack.
Yet Medical experts
Seem to pull back;
The food industry
Are aware of these facts,
And is glad to exploit you,
Like the Big Mac.

The big three,
May be under a different name,
In a multiple dose,
But it's all the same.
Sugar can be glucose/fructose
Or even dextrose,
Artificial sweetener
Can be aspartame or sucralose.
Fats can be labeled hydrogenated oil;
Clog your arteries and your heart will spoil.
Salt can be:
Autolyzed / hydrolyzed - plant protein
Or natural flavor; flowing from the MSG gene.                                  

These ingredients are unnatural as can be,
And rearrange our brain chemistry!

Let's say you had a down day,
Would you fancy an apple
Over a vanilla latte?
Chances are,
The answer is no.
Because processed food
Will give you a turbo,
Boost like a meal;
No fruit or veggie
Has such quick appeal!

It's not physical activity
That only has to change,
The pathways in our brains
Must rearrange.
Addiction uses visual fuel,
So our brain plays our body for a fool.
Fruits and veggies
Need the advertising tool,
So a healthy trap will ensnare;
Otherwise a salad just won't  compare.
To the all pervasive, fat laden,
Salty, sugary fare.

The big 3 three ingredients                                                    
 In their basic form
Can be the spice of life,
When not derived from corn.
