If You Want To Open a Door
If you want to open a door,
Use the handle and open the door
If you want to overcome unemployment
Use investment and create employment
Encourage workers to become investors
If you want to overcome poverty
Create employment that pays
reasonable wages
Teach people to make
Investments that thrive
Teach people how to build wealth
With people becoming more wealthy
The Government earns more in tax
When your people start doing well
Your country starts doing well
With your country earning more tax
Your budget starts looking better
With more money
You can afford to pay pensions
Taking your children off the streets
and into jobs
Reduces the city's crime
Giving your children jobs
Makes their parents proud
You want to make America great
Build employment for Americans
You want to make the world great
Build employment for the world
Teach people to become investors
Then if robots replace employment
Perhaps people can carry on earning wages
from dividends as we sit by the river drinking wine
