economics - dion baker lyrics

federal taxes, state taxes, city taxes
sales taxes factor into your transactions
get paid a yearly salary for 80 thousand
it shrivels down to 40 grand quicker than you can count it
particularly for employees, cheese taken from your check like
check twice… is it correct?
the government’s like, “right, yea it’s correct!”
uncle sam is off target
with 14 billion dollars in national debt and still rising
but speaking more specifically
the dollar bill has no real value check the history
it started as certificates for gold held in storage
but fractional reserve banking dropped the market value of it
increasing the money supply they made more of it
eventually removed the gold that they had stored for it
1971, under nixon
cause nearly every 40 years we change money systems

now back to the future today 2011
i’m sure you’ve heard… where the economy is headed
president obama won’t fix it… not being cynical
but fundamentally he’s a politician
and they’ve pushed the problem forward for years increasing spending
and most of them won’t really talk about it or end it
in god we trust… but god’s in debt to the fed reserve bank
so when you give thanks pray to bernanke
cause check the situation, the federal reserve
controls the economy with, money manipulations
that make it easier to get a loan for your house or car
makes your clothes cost more when you go to the mall
basic inflation deflation stagflation the nation is stagnated
‘cause financial education is not a prerequisite for school graduation
if you knew more you wouldn’t work for money you’d create it
