Once upon a time in a land not so far away there was a young boy . The Young Boy was a fortunate child because his parents had all the money in the world.The Young Boy grew into a young man with all the finest things money could buy. The Young Man eventually had many businesses and was very successful. The Young Man wanted to expand his empire so he borrowed money off the banks and his empire grew and grew and grew until one day it didn't!The Young Man was broke,not just broke but stone cold, flat broke.He had borrowed so much money off the banks that never in 1000000 years could he afford to pay it back.But luckily the debt was so vast the banks decided to lend him more money to try and recoup some of there losses.
The Young Man worked very hard lying and cheating and steeping on the backs of the less fortunate and eventually he was successful again.

Years went by and The Young Man was not young anymore. His Empire was huge,but that wasn't enough.He waned to rule his kingdom and so he did what he did best he lied and cheated and stepped on everyone's backs until he was the one supreme ruler.As the king of his kingdom he selected his official advisers,the elite few who had grown up in fortunate circumstances just as he had done.Together they started plotting.'' How can we make this Kingdom grate again''the King asked.The Advisers already had a plan and the replied''we must lessen the population,we must build a wall''.The King was puzzled "a wall how is this going to help?''questioned The King."Trust us"said the advisers''we will make this kingdom grate again.

The King told his subjects to build a wall he told them all how it was to keep them safe and keep the bad people out.The Subjects build The Kings wall .They built it to the south of their kingdom it was 30 feet high and stretched the entire length of the southern kingdom.The king was pleased he commanded his subjects to'' build a wall to the north'' and it was done.The king then commanded his subject to'' build a wall to the east and the west''and it was done."Now ''The king told his subjects''we are safe"

The Wall served its purpose it kept the kingdom safe.Nobody could get into the kingdom that wasn't suppose to be there,but nobody could get out apart from the chosen few.
The King sat behind his towering walls hurtling insults at the rest of the world like the privileged brat that he was and the world got angry.
The king started building grate bunkers down into ground where his trusted advisers and himself would be safe.The King then selected a chosen few subject to join him and his advisers in safety.

Eventually The World got so angry at The Kings constant insults that they started launching weapons of mass destruction at the kingdom. Unfortunately all the subjects were trapped behind the walls they had built for their protection.Nobody lived happily ever after accept the king and his chosen few.

They build walls to keep us in. There will be no escape! Excellent work. I'll share on FB.
