JUST ECONOMICS

JUST ECONOMICS I really must away To go and tell the world The word is written clear With flags all unfurled It is to peace we steer I really must away To share important news That now all war is done No country can refuse Whoever thinks they won I really must away Protect our industry Who now will buy our arms A true calamity I’ll set off all alarms I really must away Like this we can’t exist Dramatic drop in sales War’s needed, I insist No wonder that peace fails

timely words, Howard. My dad often said that war is sometimes needed to fuel the economy. A tragic commentary on economics and human nature. A great read...have a wonderful evening, Sara
