It is a sad truth that life comes with no manual to follow
One cause of the credit quagmire in which we now wallow
Religion we are told is supposed to show us the path
But, it controls minds. Often it seeks money or wrath
The money we use and that many of us is worshipping
Is fiat; has value by decree and supported by nothing
It is created out of thin air by governments world wide
To control the commerce and keep all people in stride
But power supported by fiat money is a motor of greed
And politicians pander, promise, then print all they need
Then most gets lent to Wall Street; finance with prestige
Processed and repackaged for a percentage plus fees
Increased once more, with excessive interest and sleeze
And then passed on to become the retail credit squeeze
For centuries we have known from hard evidence we loath
Wealth guides politics that rules lives; religion shapes both
Pray tell me, how can we have a world without misery?
When society is controlled by religion, politics and usury

Great. simply astonishing and so very well written, correct and complete. You have managed in just a few great stanzas to rightly communicate the history of bad governance, how they fool us and lie and practice deceit, together with other economic allies in order to control and cheat.
3. The simple rule of credit is "You ask credit, I no give, you get mad./ I give credit, you no pay, I get mad. Better you get mad! "
3. We need to learn to throw away all credit cards and live within our income. If we do, credit squeeze will not affect us.
