Numb. 964 Prof. Krugman's Solution (no bells or whistling past the graveyard )

What the economy needs is a shot in the arm,

maybe a dose of Viagra.

Unless something's done (for Washington) quick

we're over the falls at Niagara

where we'll be splintered to bits on the rocks,

drowning in worthless loans, bonds, and stocks,

undone by Trump's Bankrupt-onomics

unless we stashed cash in Marvel comics —

pristine first editions, hermetically sealed,

providing a viable surety shield

against the market's conniption fits.

(At least until the meteor hits.)
