Economics 101



Financially satisfied
At large on the sunny-side
Without being starry-eyed
Personally gratified
When taking the freedom-ride
Not following Piper-Pied
Watching market down-upside
As well as the underside
Common sense is mollified

Economics cut-and-dried
Comprehended far-and wide
For those who are open-eyed
Anyway they subdivide
It still remains true-and-tried
That totals will coincide
Setting up the demand-side
Off setting the supply-side
Counterpoising side-by-side
