--{ The Perfected Citizen:
"Kind Governments Posing as Our Saviour,
Using Our Taxes to Change Our Behaviour
By Peer Pressure, Guilt and Shame,
Helping Save Money for Government Game,
Adopting New Normals, You will Reform
Opinions and Attitudes and So Conform
To Be a Quality Approved Product, Standardized,
On Hearing Up is Down You're Not Surprised,
Discard Sensibilities and Own Conclusions,
When 2+2=5 There'll Be No Confusion,
Everyone's the Same and No-One's Wrong
When Authorized Opinions Prattled by Throng" © Alan Watt }--
