[🎬 Prologue – Two Men After the Crash | 78 BPM · Orchestral March × Gospel Narration]
▶ 📜 Uh in 1929 — the world cracked like glass.
Factories full, wallets empty, armies of class. Class!
Two men rose from the dust of the street, Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh!
Each promising bread for the starving feet. Eh-Eh-Eh-Oh!
🎶 Uh one built bridges of hope and pay,
One built tanks to march that way.
Both hired millions to move and dig,
But only one let the people dance a jig and awe. 💃⚙️
[🏗️ Act I – The American Gamble (New Deal Jazz) | 108 BPM · Swing × Brass × Hope]
🎶 Roosevelt wrote a brand-new creed,
“Jobs for bread, not guns for greed.”
Cut the hours, raised the wage,
Unions sang on the Broadway stage. 🎭
🎶CCC, TVA — acronyms bloom,
Public works chasing out the gloom.
From Tennessee lights to Hoover Dam,
He paid the worker — not the scam. ⚡🌉
🎶 “Oh buy your joy, not just survive,
A nation thrives when wallets thrive.”
Banks were chained, but hearts set free,
Capital met morality. 💰❤️
[🪖 Act II – The German Drill (Militar March × Industrial Metal) | 116 BPM]
🎶 Across the Rhine, another plan,
Fuehrer’s voice: “Rebuild the man!”
“Labor’s not trade — it’s the nation’s sword,
The pickaxe fights, the will’s restored.” ⚒️
🎶 Autobahns blaze like silver veins,
Steel replaces farmers’ pains.
Fifteen percent for guns in 1933,
By 1939, it’s twenty-three! 🔫🚗
🎶 No unions dare, no wages grow,
Consumption shrinks, but cannons flow.
When markets die, aggression’s fed—
The surplus burns, the soldiers tread. 💣🪶
[⚖️ Bridge – The MBA Case Study Lecture | Narrated by Maverick over Syncopated Jazz]
🎙️ “Two CEO’s of civilization Inc.,
Faced the same P&L: demand shrunk, morale sink.
Roosevelt chose domestic stimulus — consumer rebalancing.
Hitler chose exported stimulus — invasion financing.”
🎙️ “In MBA terms, one shifted internal consumption,
The other outsourced overproduction through war.”
Both boosted GDP. Only one kept humanity. 💡📊
[💸 Act III – Roosevelt’s Rebirth (Big Band Gospel) | 124 BPM]
🎶 Oh factories roared with civil pride,
Bridges rose, no need to hide.
WPA wrote poems on stone,
Each job a verse, each meal a home. 🏠
🎶FDR’s bet was slow and moral,
Spending small but structural.
Minimum wage, max compassion,
America found its consumption passion. ❤️💵
🎶 He didn’t build bombs — he built parks,
He lit the valleys, fed the arks.
When war arrived, the nation strong,
Because its heart had beat so long. 🕯️🇺🇸
[🔥 Act IV – Hitler’s Inferno (Industrial Waltz × Minor Key) | 100 BPM]
🎶 “Full employment!” the banners cried,
But consumers starved while profits lied.
Every factory built a gun,
Every salary fed just one oh-eh. 💀
🎶By 1939, GDP soars,
But butter’s gone to finance wars.
Imports choked, exports bleed,
So Poland fell to feed the need. ⚙️🩸
🎶When you print steel instead of trust,
The empire ends in ash and dust.
No consumption — only flame,
And war becomes the final game. 🔥
[🌍 Finale – The Two Ghosts Meet at the Bridge of History | 72 BPM · Requiem Gospel]
[🎙️ Roosevelt:] “I fed the people first — the nation grew after.”
[Hitler:] “I fed the factories first — then ate the world.”
🎶 Oh two roads split after the crash,
One built hope, the other ash.
Both rose from hunger’s pain,
But only one kept man sane. 🕊️
🎶 From bridges lit to cities burned,
History chooses where it’s learned.
The GDP can blind the eye,
If souls aren’t counted, nations die. 💔🌌
[🧠 Program Note — NeuraPump MBA Lesson]
1️⃣ Oh policy choice defines destiny.
2️⃣ Stimulate consumption, you build society; stimulate armament, you build a fuse.
3️⃣ Roosevelt’s multiplier was happiness; Hitler’s was entropy.
4️⃣ GDP without distribution = war in disguise.
