IN 1626 PETER MINUIT
PURCHASED THE ISLAND OF MANHATTAN.
HE PURCHASED THE LAND FOR EQUIVALENT
OF 60 GILDERS. HOW COULD THAT HAPPEN?
THE INDIANS WHO SOLD IT DIDN'T UNDERSTAND
WHY THIS DUTCHMAN WOULD GIVE THEM GILDERS FOR LAND.
IT WASN'T A MATTER OF WHAT IT WAS WORTH.
IT WAS 'HOW CAN SOMEONE OWN A PIECE OF THE EARTH'?
ITS CALLED REAL ESTATE REAL ESTATE.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT MAKE AMERICA GREAT.
REAL ESTATE REAL ESTATE
I WATCH MY WEALTH ACCUMULATE.
MOST OF THE WEALTH IN THIS COUNTRY
WAS BUILT ON THE OWNERSHIP OF LAND.
LAND GIVEN TO WHITE HOMESTEADERS.
LAND TAKEN FROM THE INDIANS. (Suckers)
LAND LEVERAGED TO START BUSINESSES.
LAND PASSED ON TO OUR KIDS.
DON'T WAIT TO BUY MORE REAL ESTATE
BUY MORE REAL ESTATE AND WAIT.
IT'S CALLED REAL ESTATE REAL ESTATE.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT MAKE AMERICA GREAT.
REAL ESTATE REAL ESTATE
I WATCH MY WEALTH ACCUMULATE.
I GOT AN 8000 SQUARE FOOT HOME ON THE OUTSKIRTS.
I'M LIVING LARGE ON LUCKY LANE.
I HAVE A TROPHY WIFE AND A TROPHY LIFE.
MY SUCCESS DRIVES MY ENEMIES INSANE.
EVERYONE NEEDS SOMEPLACE TO LIVE.
IF YOU DON'T OWN THEN YOU HAVE TO RENT FROM ME.
IF I RAISE THE RENT AND YOU CANT PAY
I DON'T CARE IF YOU END UP ON THE STREET.
IT'S CALLED REAL ESTATE REAL ESTATE.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT MAKE AMERICA GREAT.
REAL ESTATE REAL ESTATE
MAKES ME WANT TO MASTURBATE!
