Guns and Butter

Ahead, in those hours
is an increase in productivity.

Our own lives
reduce its production of butter
over the next year, about as much
as an economy produces more guns.

Too many Americans in search of
two goods, a choice must be made between
the limit to the production and
high quality affordable health for all.

Addicted, the fight
demonstrates the idea of how
every person can get more of something
and another cause you cannot produce.

Production, you cannot invest
reduces all possible addiction to desire.
