Gold Fringed Flag - Merry Time Lulz (3. No Mercery)

What do these words all have in common?
(mermaid
sub-mer-ine
mercantile
merchandise)
They all have "mer" which represents the sea,
(charMER
costuMER
custoMER
consuMER)

The way of the sea has infected the free market,
(blaMER
hamMER
MERman
oh-MER)
Conflating trade and exchange
with false mercery
(comMERce
MERchandise
merFOLK
MERcenary)

What good is a free market inside a free nation if that same market becomes a slave due to its trade with other nations?

The market isn't free Until the oceans are free But the oceans are enslaved Under globalist maritime mercery

Some call it leviathan
Others Name "the beast"
But the global legal System
Is bigger than all of these

It's always fed on markets,
run by parties unknown
But all trade is beholden to it,
Dictated as by a tyrant on a throne

Markets allow for co-operation
Economies of scale grow
These are all good things
That bless the human soul

But commerce barges in and says
"The party starts with me"
Adhere to the global commercial code
Or Perish beneath the sea
