Default Legal or Illegal?

(SINGS)
"It's illegal to rip off a payroll, it/s illegal to hold up a train,/ But it's legal to rip off a million or two/ That comes from the work that other folk do,/ To plunder the many on behalf of the few/ Is a thing that is evidently legal.

It's illegal to kill off your landlord, or trespass upon an estate;/ But to charge a high rent for a slum is OK,/ Condemn two adults and three children to stay/ In a hovel that's rotten with damp and decay,/ Is a thing that is perfectly legal.

It's illegal to carve up your missus/ Or put poison in the old man's tea,/ But poison the rivers, the seas and the skies,/ And poison the mind of a Nation with lies;/ If it's done in the name of FREE ENTERPRISE/ Then it's proper and perfectly legal.

It's legal to march in protest, free speech is one of your rights/ But don't be offensive when politicians cross the line,/ Be nice to police and keep this in mind:/ To demonstrate EFFECTIVELY, now that's a crime/ Worse than if you murdered your mother!

It's legal to sing on TV, but they make bloody sure that you don't/ If you sing against racists and fascists and creeps,/ And thieves in high places who live off the weak,/ Those bastards who are selling us right up the creek,/ Those twisters, and takers, con-men and fakers,/ That whole bloody gang of workers' exploiters."

Investing and managing are necessary to an economic organization and system the people who are "stolen from" work of their own free will and are compensated.
It's illegal to kill off your landlord, or trespass upon an estate;/ But to charge a high rent for a slum is OK,/ Condemn two adults and three children to stay/ In a hovel that's rotten with damp and decay,/ Is a thing that is perfectly legal.

Move elsewhere, competition is the fuel of a capitalist economy. If their isn't better more affordable housing form a cooperative and make one
It's illegal to carve up your missus/ Or put poison in the old man's tea,/ But poison the rivers, the seas and the skies,/ And poison the mind of a Nation with lies;/ If it's done in the name of FREE ENTERPRISE/ Then it's proper and perfectly legal.

That which is owned by all is cared for by none
It's legal to march in protest, free speech is one of your rights/ But don't be offensive when politicians cross the line,/ Be nice to police and keep this in mind:/ To demonstrate EFFECTIVELY, now that's a crime/ Worse than if you murdered your mother!

When Effective protesting involves the wanton destruction of property yes
It's legal to sing on TV, but they make bloody sure that you don't/ If you sing against racists and fascists and creeps,/ And thieves in high places who live off the weak,/ Those bastards who are selling us right up the creek,/ Those twisters, and takers, con-men and fakers,/ That whole bloody gang of workers' exploiters."
you can sing against fascists, and racists and creeps, but those "bloody workers' exploiters" own the networks so why would you want to benefit them by singing, even if they did let you insult them.
