well, I like the oboe in the introduction. You don't hear that much oboe any more.

The beginning of the program states that the financial sector in the US today is twice the size of the manufacturing sector. Therein, lies the problem. Paper shuffling, pencil pushing and gambling. Labor is where a nation gains economic prosperity.

Catch 'em as they fall.
Never know your luck when there's a free-for-all.
Here a little dip
