Moral obligations
Civic duty
Ugh! So 70s

Extinct
Like dinosaurs and disco

If you want to teach 
Social infrastructure literacy 
You must talk with money

Budgets 
Taxpayer utility
Cost-benefit ratios

Otherwise

Homelessness
Poverty and inaccessibility
Remain personal failings
Instead of highlighting
Broken systems

Sometimes the things
We tell ourselves
(and others too)
Are categorically
Untrue
