Terms and Conditions Definitely Apply

"Mark that you've read and accepted the terms and conditions"

No one reads them, no one hears them, no one helps them.

"You can't log in without accepting the terms and conditions"

The 'Land of the Free', or so they say

"Please accept the terms and conditions before continuing"

But only for the white, straight, land owning, job pursuing, male.

"Terms and conditions do apply"

What about the women, the minorities, those who came for freedom? 

"Tand conditions must be marked before you go on"

I onced loved a country based on freedom, now I fear 'America the Great'

Freedom* for all!

 

 

*Terms and Conditions apply, may not be viable for some states of mind.
