Congress and party politics

Are a problem that's getting worse.

Powers that be don't want a fix.

They're too busy spending the purse.

Party leaders know the proved facts.

It is alternate out and in.

Those wanting in promise less tax

And other lies so they can win.

It's up to voters to force out

The party users long term bust.

Setting term limits would no doubt

Help to rebuild the public trust.

Two party politics is one

Big reason lots of waste is done.
