The Establishment

The system in which the Man holds us down. It is an intricate network of codes and regulations, involving everything from taxes that get spent in all the wrong places to phone banks where nobody even works. There are players for "the Establishment" everywhere, so do not let people know that you are aware of it.

I work for the Establishment and there is nothing I can do about it.

Establishment

The world as we know it. Where sex is thought to be dirty. They say it's not but there actions speak louder than words. Antilove laws ect. Where you work like a robot to make enough money to eat and to raise some kids who will blame you for all the trouble in there life. And where money is worshiped.

I hate the establishment.
