What Will They Do?

I know their concocting all kinds of plans
we won't fall into another depression that's what
their saying. But I fear their next move.
What will they do to ensure our superiority?
Can plan A or B guarantee our survival?
I see us American's living in an never ending
cycle when will the big shots finally look out
for the masses and not just for self?  
Am I too aware? Do I need to be silenced 
in order not to scare. Duck tape my mouth
but I'll still have a brain to think and ears 
to hear. I just recently sniffed the air and I smell
fear those dumb bastards are scared.
