Personally I am of the opinion that if she is irrevocably evil, at least make it so that it is a necessary evil. Utilitarianism has its uses as a doctrine.

The sun beams down on a brand new day
No more welfare tax to pay
Unsightly slums gone up in flashing light
Jobless millions whisked away
At last we have more room to play
All systems go to kill the poor tonight
