Do something

Through out the years I have read your letters to the editor or Mr Steele, etc. but it's funny you know that I have yet to see someone do something about the complaint — the injustice — the legal robbery, that most people seem to write about. Perhaps they have got it off their chests, freed themselves of guilt, or simply like to see their name or initials or whatever in print. I myself have many complaints — coffee and drink machines, the cafe, lack of nutritious food in cafe, general lack of participation by people, the great exploitation of society, the so called justice of our courts and police and many more. I include myself in this general lack of participation, because its hard to participate by yourself. People say join/go to meetings of the student council, voice your opinions, run for president. Sure — I would do things but there are so many so called radicals at the top you can't compete. So petty are some of their arguments about socialism Trotsky etc that sometimes (and that is all the time) I wonder at the mentality of these people. There is so much shit flying around at the top you can't tell who is an enemy and who is not. It is about time that we said enough, we are not going to take anymore of this shit, and demand adequate provisions in all fields that are affected. And when we ask for thse provisions we don't ask for the ridiculous as have done some committees. When our provisions are met we then take the next step. So if you are going to write and complain be prepared to do something constructive or destructive. I am ready.

Stop shaking your tongue
Start shaking your fist
Or become another plant
of this vegetable society
Don't kid yourself that
Society won't get you
Already you are caught
You are just another sucker
You little mother fucker.
