ECONOMICS FOR YOU
By V
WHIM WHAM
Said Economist A to Economist B, I see an Upturn — what do You see? Said Economist B to Economist A, I see a Downturn coming this Way. Said Economist C, whatever turns up I tell by the Tealeaves in my Cup, All I foresee is an Upside-downturn When Leaves on the Trees take an Autumn brown-turn, Dizzy with all these Turns, I doubt If Any of Us knows what it’s All about. Said Economist D, what’s wrong with Dizziness? We’re All in the Entertainment Business! ♦ » * Don't bother Us about your Jobs and Wages — Consult the Small Ads, or the Yellow Pages. We’ll hear You, on the Statistical Sublime If it’s a Billion Dollars — any Time! * * * Deregulated Milk is good for You, X Deregulated Sugar must be sweeter — , It’s marvellous what Market Forces do! Lean back, enjoy the Ride, la Dolce Vita — Float with the Dollar, give or take those Few Bumpy Kilometres or Cents per Litre. ♦ ♦ ♦ GUEST POET Coming they pay, staying they pay, and going. Here, sultry at Christmas, the wind Almost charges for blowing. g —Denis Glove|
