Blink 182 – Wendy Clear

Let’s take the boat out on the bay
Forget your job for just one day
I wish it didn’t have to be so bad
It might be inappropriate because
Either way our band gets dropped, oh yeah
I wish it didn’t have to be so bad

But I’d play with fire to break the ice
And I’d play with a nuclear device
Is it something I’ll regret, why do I want what I can’t get?
I wish it didn’t have to be so bad

The three-date theory is getting old
Everyone’s getting left out in the cold
I wish it didn’t have to be so bad
So I’ll see you with another guy
Who pretends not to hear you when you cry, oh yeah

I wish it didn’t have to be so bad

But I’d play with fire to break the ice
And I’d play with a nuclear device
Is it something I’ll regret, why do I want what I can’t get?
I wish it didn’t have to be so bad

I’ll be movin’ on
Movin’ on
Movin’ on, on, on
Movin’ on
Movin’ on
Movin’ on, on, on

But I’d play with fire to break the ice
And I’d play with a nuclear device
Is it something I’ll regret, why do I want what I can’t get?
I wish it didn’t have to be so bad

I wish it didn’t have to be so bad
I wish it didn’t have to be so bad
I wish it didn’t have to be so bad

The Economy.

I was watching a documentary last night that explained how messed up the economy is.

One day the government decided instead of trading everything to get things (bread for sheep etc.) they were going to start something called ‘money’. So they make a bunch of money (let’s say $100) and tell everyone what it’s worth.

Government: I declare that this $100 will be able to purchase X amount of bread

People: Okie.

So, now that this seemingly worthless paper has ‘value’ people start liking the idea.

People: So, Government, how can I get this money?

Government: You can borrow it, but because we are doing you this favor, we need something in return. When you give it back, you need to give back the money plus interest, because we need to make up for the fact that while YOU have the money WE don’t. Fair?

People:… Uh, yea… Can I have my money?

Government: Yes.

So, let’s say, for nice numbers, the interest on that $100 loan is 100%. That means when you give back the $100 you ACTUALLY have to give back $200…

How can you give back $200 when there is only $100 printed?

You see, the interest isn’t a REAL number in the sense of the amount of money available, it’s just made up, out of thin air.

So how do you pay it off? Well think about it like this. Government has $100, you borrow $50, and your friend borrows $50. You each owe $100 now with the interest. (total owed still twice what exists.) You play a game of pot limit Omaha hold’em and win all your friends money. You pay off your debt. Now the government has it’s original $100 but is still owed ANOTHER $100 from your friend.

Your debt is clear, theirs isn’t. Why do you care? So as long as you can make money to pay off your own personal debts, you don’t think about all that interest being tact on to the people who are giving you their money in exchange for something.

Strange, how the debt can NEVER be paid off.

Here is an interesting stat. At any given time, less than 3% of the worlds debt is available as currency. The rest (97%) is just a number, the accumulated interest being tracked on the books.

We are screwed.
