Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

I've always preferred Suzy Bogguss' version of Someday Soon.

His lyric "..slippery city shoes.." from "Summer Wages" has become part of my seasonal lexicon.
He was a geat songwriter. Covered by multiple generations and generas of performers. Perhaps, I daresay, one of the greatest.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Suzy Bogguss has a very pure voice, one of my favorites in Country music.
