War - Bitcoin Poem 047

The United States sustains their forever
   Wars because it’s easy to borrow capital 
      It’s easy to borrow as the Federal Reserve 
         Literally prints money in Quantitative Easing
            And keeps the interest rate forcibly very low
               This allows billions to flow to forever wars 
                  Therefore
               If we let the market determine interest rates
            And if we move to a hard money standard
         Such as Bitcoin, with an immutable supply
      Then unpopular or unproductive wars are
   Much harder for governments to sustain
Leading to more safety and more peace
