Call It Democracy by Bruce Cockburn
This is a protest song about the Canadian International Monetary Fund, but it could apply to what is happening in our U.S. now.

1. Thanks for posting that
I find it interesting that he wrote that song in 1985 about the IMF... I've always loved "If I Had a Rocket Launcher" by him, as well.

2. Another good one by this genius considering the Iraq news today

Rocket Launcher still is something to relate to 25+ years after the song first came out ???? sickening IMO and how sad

Thanks for reminding about this great singer/songwriter
