One.. Two.. Three..

one
two
three
so that's three hundred
said the kid standing in front of a food stall
that's the remainder of his money
mom said that he should give it back
but the money is his, it's his achievement that he's efficient
but no, three hundred wouldn't hurt
would it?
mom has much more money than this

one
two
three
so that's three thousand
said the man in the parking lot
he asked for five thousand though he knew it should be two
but he needs the three thousand
it's not a thievery when the person who has the money know that it's taken
and no, three thousand wouldn't hurt
would it?
those people with expensive cars have much more money than this

one
two
three
so that's three million
said the man in his office counting the money
so he stretched the budget a little, that's fine
wasn't it him who found the cheaper supplier
it was his work, his sweat, so it's his right
no no, three million wouldn't hurt
would it?
this big company produces much more money than this

one
two
three
so that's three hundred billion,
said the man in his best suite with angelic expression on his face
big smile in his face while he thought of a new jaguar to be added to his collection
so I flexed the truth a little bit, but he need the document and I help him
it's not stealing, he gave me some kind of a, umm, a thank you note
hell no, three billion wouldn't hurt
would it?
this goddamned country has much more money than this

and, they are damned anyway.
