Everybody Knows....................from Rico

To put this in proper context, visit YouTube and watch the video of his "Everybody Knows."
- For a much more complete appreciation, reading his lyrics also helps. Use whatever search engine you prefer.

The Canadian songwriter-musician Leonard Cohen absolutely 'nailed it' in ~1988 with this one.
- Everybody Knows.

Deficit spending. Everybody knows that spending more than you make will create jobs and prosperity.
- Visit Italy, Greece, or Spain and see for yourself.

Cut interest rates to zero%. Everybody knows that lower interest rates encourage people and corporations to borrow and spend more money.
- Volunteer at the FED to help them count the excess $1.5+ trillion in money being held by the TBTF banks.

Print money. Everybody knows the Great Depression was great only because nobody had the idea to print money.
- Visit Japan where thay have been printing money for over a decade (without changing one thing).

Everybody Knows.

Another time we'll discuss how Orwell's "1984" was meant as a warning, and NOT an instruction manual.
