America: … ummm … I don’t know man … he’s got a point tho … I’m still not sure who to vote for
A simple no would have sufficed!
I’m sure that trump could fill the eights circle…
Eighth Circle of Hell: Fraud
This circle is distinguished from its predecessors by being made up of those who consciously and willingly commit fraud. Within the eighth circle is another called the Malebolge (“Evil Pockets”), which houses ten separate bolgias (ditches). These ditches housed different types of people who committed fraud: panderers; seducers; flatterers; simoniacs (those who sell ecclesiastical preferment); sorcerers; barrators (corrupt politicians); schismatics (those who separate religions to form new ones); and alchemists, among others.
Each bolgia is guarded by different demons, and the inhabitants suffer different punishments, such as the simoniacs, who stand head-first in stone bowls and endure flames upon their feet.
Well it’s not one of my favorite Squeeze songs, but the album is still pretty good.
