"Capitalism" by Oingo Boingo. Many of you may not know this 80's new wave type band but they were hardcore CAPITALISTS. Some lyrics from the above song:

You're just a middle class socialist brat
From a suburban family and you never really had to work,
Now you tell me that you got to get back to the struggling masses, whoever they are,
You talk, talk, talk about suffering and pain,
Your mouth is bigger than your entire brain,
What the he!! do you know about suffering and pain, you dumb f#*k?

I do not mean to offend anyone with the lyrics but thought that they were appropriate given that socialistas are the bane of conservatives. The band is probably more libertarian than conservative, but they obviously share the conservative's disdain for things collective.

You're the 4th or 5th Boingo fan I've run across on FR. Glad to meet you.

The driving force behind Oingo Boingo, Danny Elfman, went on to write just about every major motion picture score worth listening to in the last 10 years and "The Simpsons" theme to boot.
