Oh, the worst part is that our system doesn't even require that people be convinced to give the wealthy more wealth. The relationship of State governance & powerful trade unions with the "world banks" functions like an insurance scam, whereby private losses are foisted upon an unwilling populace through all sorts of very fancy sounding financial tools. It's a charade. Why do you think they are so resistant to letting housing naturally crash? Can't have those plebs realize they can live and provide for themselves without debt, gotta inflate, inflate, inflate, so they'll be forced to work where we want, salary tiered by what we need. Hey, I wonder what happens if you do that, while at the same time ensuring that no one has access to capital? $10 bag o' chips. So much faith in our brave and fearless "leaders." Oh hey, look, someone's nephew is running for office. They are just so darn deserving. We've really come so far since feudalism.
