Listen, by now, we know the line.
It's infamous when stated.
But spoken to be their truth.

When theft happens it makes stores go up on items.
Yes, really.
This the stories we must buy as these folks alibi.

Pay raises also the next fabricated truth.
Yes, really.
Not that many high price executives keep getting bonuses that lower level richly earned.

Another known spin is the rise in fuel.
If instantly there's a foreign crisis dealing with oil.
We know the various stories to come.
And quick.

Gasoline with be rising next.
Like we don't know it goes up in summer and might be lower in the winter.

Totally, then what you expect?

This we know of a version of the reported truth to us.

Oh, there are more.
