One man once said
"None are more hopelessly enslaved than
those who falsely believe they are free."
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
This is the situation for most people on earth.
We are still ruled by the rich, through various economic manipulations, that enable them to maintain their wealth. On the backs of the working class of course.
The Monarchy is alive expect those Monarchs of today are international bankers. I guess the money changers eventually took over....
They use various institutions like central banks, tax agencies, insurance companies, whom the wealthy benefit from that is subsidized(more like fully funded) by the regular working class to maintain their wealth.
It has become clear to me that Capitalism is a great failure. And the only thing maintaining this failure is taxes and inflation(the working class). The cost of living has been steady on the rise since its inception. With many struggling to make ends meet.
America credits Capitalism with its success, but that is not true. American capitalism right now is being sustained by Asia buying their debt. In other words, if America did not have the international default currency, they'd be in major economic trouble.
Sure Capitalism brings early success like any Ponzi scheme, though eventually, someone on the bottom is going to be left out. Look at how many countries have enjoyed a boost of wealth and then economic calamity due to capitalism. Today, look no further then Iceland.
America claims to be the greatest nation on earth, though it is far from it. What is the source of America's success? Well it was the only country whose economy was not left in ruins after the world wars. European elites took their wealth and transferred it to the USA. Gave them a global default currency which basically means it is subsidized by every other nation. And with their new found wealth, they were able to buy the greatest minds from the eastern hemisphere. Not only that? Like the Roman Empire? American elites exploit cheap labour in foreign countries(type of slavery). That is used to strip them of their resources for next to nothing.
Lets talk about Democracy. Is capitalism compatible with democracy when you can have citizens use that money to bribe politicians? Democracy has become a joke, with people crying fraud all over the planet. This is not to say I do not support democracy. I fully do(under socialism). I just do not support the democracy that exists today. All it consists of is puppet candidates of the wealthy, and a congress bought and paid for by lobbyists. This isn't democracy. This is corruption. They control both sides and stack the decks. and grasss root movements or parties, are intimidated, sued, threatened into not participating. We need more grass root movements.
The notion that candidates are chosen by the people is laughable. We all know that the candidates are chosen by the rich to serve the rich, regardless of how many lies they tell you. Each candidate tries to figure out how to put more money in the pockets of the rich, whether by increasing taxes, currency circulation, new useless government programs(cash grabs), cutting social programs, ect....Though the pigs are always well fed.
The middle class can be explained like this. If you take a wild horse and enslave it? It will do everything in its power to become free again. Since it has tasted true freedom. Though a horse born in captivity will slave all his life for his master, because it does not know it is in captivity. It has never tasted true freedom. Sure it gets a pat on the back and some oats here and there, but it is not free.
