My favorite economic things

Free grocery samples and
discounts for teachers.
No fees for checking and no charge for credit.
Nobody asks for ID for my beer.
Those are just some of my favorite economic things.

No tax on wages nor taxes on goodies.
No tax on buildings nor taxes on business.
No tax on anything ‘cept for the land.
Those would be some of my favorite things.

No crimes for acts that are without victims.
No laws restricting my speaking and writing.
Nobody tells me what I have to do.
That would be some of my favorite things.

When the tax bites.
When police sting.
When I’m feeling oppressed.
That’s when I remember my favorite things.
So why do I still feel bad?

Peace in the world, even for Jews.
Peace and justice for Arabs as well.
Muslims and Christians no longer at war.
Those would be some of my favorite things.

Animals treated humanely and kindly.
No more pollution or else compensation.
Tolls make congestion a thing of the past.
Those are my favorite wishes for sings.

Someone to love, and someone to be with.
A cat, dog, or rabbit that we can have fun with.
Friends and the relatives that we enjoy.
Those are the best of my favorite things.

When disease strikes.
When my hives itch.
When I get the flu.
That’s when I remember my favorite things.
I wish they could all come true.
