T'was the Night Before Christmas


T’was the night before Christmas
And all through the land,
Government officials and regulators
Were devising a plan.

The Congress and Senate
Passed a bill late last night,
Which will bankrupt our country,
And worsen our plight.

The Fed was going easy
With money galore,
Bernanke and company-
Quantitative-Easing forever more.

Our debts grow larger
With each passing day.
A trillion here, a trillion there,
“Spend more!” the Keynesians say.

The rates of unemployment
Are frightening high.
More government intervention,
Is their only desire.

Scared to hire
And afraid to spend,
Small companies hunker down,
Obamacare lurks around the bend.

Hopefully we’ve learned
A hard lesson for most,
That massive spending and debt,
Won’t lead to prosperity and growth.

The Prez and Congress
On vacation they’ve finally left.
Good bye and good riddance!
Now, let’s clean up their mess.
