Are you confused about the economy? have no fear --

I'm going to explain the American right now

a from the government
But the value of the

The value of the dollar comes
China and
When they put their cash
in a U.S. plan -

buy treasury bonds from
The Reserve
We say "we owe you extra
cause you gave us of yours"

a big part
of the National
All the that we
haven't paid to China yet -

+And a hundred countries
Cause we're a good investment
The world gives us money
We say "Hey pay you interest!"

is how money is created from air
Bank bailouts, budgets
isn't really there -

+It's an I.O.U., dollars are a promise
When you borrow a bank
It's not from other

The for your loan
created on the spot

But they never to pay you -

+In life cash and credit
They are different things

'Turnin forty fifty gotta move in with my parents
And the stocks go up but the jobs

You afford it
so make it to depend
On endless transactions
Which is more like

pay more for printer ink
Than you do for and
More for water

Razor blades are to

So you're forever in debt to

The best designed
Meets a need and doesn't

Or why grandma pays more
she lacks stock dividends

+Or why private

Or why democracy is
Cause their leaders won't be

Loopholes or
For constituent
Putting legislative
In a deep

+So the Ph.Ds and the G.E.D.s
Cry Ayn Rand down at the temp agency
