“Maintain The Ratio” [Canadian Economy Series #1 – Concluding Summary]

Mister Bellan, it appears,
Has solution to our tears –
“Keep the ratio between
Wage and profit, if you’ve been –

“Out of line in aggregate;
Raise and lower – don’t inflate
While adjusting mess you’ve made,
Implementing plans you’ve laid”.

Guess that’s where he goes with this;
Greenspan said, “That form of bliss
Does no harm – productive be,
If you’d greater wages see.”

My intent at first of book,
Is to take initial look
At our own economy –
Learn what’s there affecting me.

I could start with theory, yes,
But that’s not my forte – best
I use story of what was
In our past, its tangled cause.

This book uses twenty souls,
Experts in what each one knows
To depict what’s known by each,
Weaving baseline all should reach.

Though it’s dated – eighties start –
That’s about where I embarked
On this roller coaster ride
Of small business – stepped outside –

Of established, funded, task
(Ministry), with question asked –
Little knew that R&D
Is not done by us, I see.

In his summary, this man
Leaves out research – feels he can
As our work’s imported now
From The States – both what and how.

Are these sectors of our way
Full, complete? I cannot say;
But I’ll start, then add them back
Filling in the parts they lack.

Use NVivo? Scan the book?
Not sure – maybe second look
Would find that would profit me,
If that’s where I want to be.

Thirteen lines I read last time
(I got bored and drew the line);
Lord, what do You think of this?
“Write your poems, heaven kiss.”

Thank You, Lord, I’ll do just that –
Write up satisfaction’s cat;
Sounds okay, I’ll move from here,
As the roadway’s now made clear.

Thanks Lord for this.
