Inflation- def. noun- blowing up the economy

Offer ends soon they say

Normally four hundred, yours only nine hundred if you hurry

Buy what you don't need and can't afford to pay 

Ten times more in interest, but don't worry

Box big, less inside

Price inflated 

Quality a mess, return denied

Value negated

Too old to work anymore

They cut my social security you know

Each day growing more poor

They say this helps the economy grow

Author's Note

A poem of deliberate poor quality to match the requirements of quality control that demands products self destruct after the warranty expires so more can be sold

The economy grows, but we do not grow along with it.

Everything needs food to grow and we are the economy's food
