Economic Game
Oscar Auliq-Ice 1994 (Port Elizabeth)
The economy, a complex beast,
Whose impact is felt from west to east,
It ebbs and flows with the tides of time,
And can bring both fortune and decline.
It's influenced by factors vast and wide,
From politics to natural tide,
From innovation to human needs,
And policies that govern trade and feeds.
The market, where goods and services flow,
And where prices rise and fall like snow,
Is a key player in this economic game,
And can bring both joy and pain.
But at its core, the economy is about people,
Their needs, desires, and wants, simple and ample,
It's about jobs and wages, and putting food on the table,
And ensuring that prosperity is stable.
So let us strive to create an economy,
That serves us all, and reflects our diversity,
Where equity and fairness reign supreme,
And where opportunity is not just a dream.
