Capitalism is not about free competitive choices among people who are reasonably equal in their buying and selling of economic power, it is about concentrating capital, concentrating economic power in very few hands using that power to trash everyone who gets in their way.

With God's Hand
Our country has health and wealth today
Because of the happenings on life's way.
The depth of great Acts of Parliament
The Military might coping with war...
We all agree without argument
That we've held our own in times of yore.
The past is a solid foundation
A rock of ages to build upon,
And we shall go from strength to strength
With God's hand to guide us along.

A Country is not a mere territory; the particular territory is only its foundation. The Country is the idea which rises upon that foundation; it is the sentiment of love, the sense of fellowship which binds together all the sons of that territory.

Economic Storm Clouds
Darkness in the country looms, as others see economic booms,
Prospering far above our pace, as this country slips from grace.
Many hearts gripped with fears, as an economic darkness nears,
Indifferent to a growing trend, of what may be this county’s end.
But, knowing something’s wrong, in a land thought to be strong,
Prices go up, as our morals slide, facts which cannot be denied.
Fear along with anxiety grows, as seeds of greed a nation sows,
Not concerned where it will lead, unleashing a tide of utter greed.
What they sow, we must reap, and now that climb is awful steep,
As the cost of living far exceeds, man’s ability to care for needs,
Forget that thought of prosperity, a dream most of us won’t see,
As we head for that slippery slope, most will find it hard to cope,
For as a nation we pushed aside, the Truth in which we did abide.
Now with God’s Grace far behind, many men are spiritually blind,
Forgetting all our former days, as God received a nation’s praise,
When building the nation on integrity, across the land, sea to sea.
Now the nation begins to quake, as The Lord God, many forsake,
As the storms begins to rumble, our foundation starts to crumble,
Brought on from greed and lust, another foundation turns to dust,
As a land many now call home, becomes in history another Rome.

It is economic power that determines political power, and governments become the political functionaries of economic power.

Import and Export
Import the things more the country really need
For its economic development
Such as food, raw materials for various industries
Technology, electric power and so on.
Export the things that are surplus and competitive
And whose demand is in the foreign countries.
With a view to boost export
The government should minimize export duty
And encourage the exporters
By reducing tariff on import of associated raw materials.
The government must discourage import of nonessential items
By imposing higher import duty
And encourage production of luxury items in the country.
In the modern world international trade can play a vital role
In the economic development of any country
That’s why the governments must emphasize on it evermore.

Power and strength
We all have a unique power and strength
Though many strive blindly to get it at length
Some see power in a weapon revenging
But it takes greater strength in simply forgiving
Some think they show power by taking
But to give freely is stronger there’s no mistaking
All can carry the power of love in their hearts
It forgives, comforts endures and us never parts
These strength powers if we look have we all
So don’t forget this find your inner power stand tall
From this process has emerged a parallel process of translating traditional working and living values into a new political and economic power - a power increasingly based upon the strength of money and those material things money can purchase.

Ma Fwend
i thought i was alone
i thought i was the only one in pain
everyday i go through changes that break me down
i stare and think there is no hope
i look at the stars above and think how my goals are unreachable
but then
i look in your eyes and i see hope
i hold your hand amd i feel strength, the strength to carry on
you give me a foundation to stand on and the power to make me strong
you carry me when i am crippled
i am not afraid to call you ma fwend.

It's really true in this country that more and more Americans think that underneath the economic crisis there's a values crisis, and we won't get to an economic recovery without a moral recovery as well. So a citizen's movement about values and economics I'm finding all over the country on main street, and Wall Street needs to pay attention to that.

Freedom (1960's)
To stand forth in strength;
The strength of wisdom,
The strength of knowledge,
The strength of power,
The strength to stand tall,
The strength to say nay,
The strength to be proud,
To be strong, able and wise,
Down this road true freedom lies...
