United Nations Of Cards (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)

United Nations Of Cards   (Bussokusekika)

Of BRICK and of brack
And a broken camel’s back
Money backed by gold
Or paper backed by thin air
Yep the big boys on the block
United Nations of cards

    Yeah…You don’t say…Just keep printing it…As long as the powers that be control the Federal Reserve what could possibly happen???Right???I wonder what might happen if those BRICK countries call in their markers and demand the NATO countries to pay up with e either BRICK countries money or gold??? I doubt they’ll accept green backs or crypto coin…
