And we try to understand The laws we all cant help but follow called: SUPPLY AND DEMAND If I'm sellin somethin Here's what I got to know To ensure my sales be bumpin If we raise the price, fewer people be buyin If we push that price down low, customers be multiplyin It's not to simple just to sell it for cheap You got to cover your costs Ya tryna make ends meet Say we were forced to keep our price way down. LOW Our goods become more scarce become the talk of the town. OH If the law won't let us respond in turn by raising our money PRICE Then our lovely customers will have to pay the price in non- monetary costs such as waitin in line On day when you could be HUSTLIN and now you wastin yo time So when the prices are fixed costs remain, don't fall for tricks That extra cost don't disappear It just shift from here to here You got dem long long lines? Wait a sec, shorty, that ain't right UHM. SHORTY DAT LOOK LIKE A SHORTAGE SHORTY, SHORTY DAT LOOK LIKE A SHORTAGE Ooo. When dat price so low So they be rushin to da store tramplin one another to DA FLOOR uh Ya get it? It's about supply and demand. Ya get it? Yyeeaaaaaaaaahhhhh Yes sir, sir yes, what about a surplus? Yes sir, sir yes, what about a surplus? When you got leftover GOODS on your HANDS Cos the quantity supplied exceeds the quantity demanded Yo. We got it 4 cheap And we're tryin to be supplyin So we got to compete. OH And we try to understand The laws we all cant help but follow called: SUPPLY AND DEMAND

Iraq Veterans Against the War
"The stories that are happening inside of Iraq and Afghanistan are profoundly important to be communicated when, often, the story is really one-sided in the mainstream press." -Matt Howard, IVAW, in the "Finding Your Story" webinar
About
Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) is an organization founded in 2004 at the annual convention of Veterans for Peace (VFP) by Iraq war veterans who sought to create a resource for veterans and active duty service people against the war.

In their own words, IVAW calls for:

1. Immediate withdrawal of all occupying forces in Iraq
2. Reparations for the human and structural damages Iraq has suffered, and stopping the corporate pillaging of Iraq so their people can control their own lives and future
3. Full benefits, adequate healthcare (including mental health), and other supports for returning servicemen and women
