cash economy-where cash is king.
black economy-people's equivalent to governmental "black"budgets
off the grid-connecting to peer group economics
no tax,no regulation.no licenses(also no copyright,no royalties,no bank loans)
basic recycling-as in those private trucks that pick up on trash day
or deals done between neighbors cash in hand.This is where we stand-
she sells food at Festivals-yet might never get a permit
on the fringe-where shadows live-close to gangs and criminals
slim thin lines of entrepreneurial initiatives-individual risk
Richard Branson began by selling weed in college
now he wheels and deals on international levels
Bands that sell Cds out of car trunks become gold rappers
camelos hawking food and drinks rake in black cash
This is how the poor survive-wheeling and dealing to thrive
Survival undercover among Third World hunger
someone will make a deal -for phones,cars,clothes,cash
passes between the hands of many-rough equality
"It's the black economy,stupid!"
