There’s no doubt about it; the denial of wealth is what keeps us in
check, in debt. As a wise man once said, “There are two ways to conquer
and enslave a nation. One by sword, the other by debt.” The harsh,
unavoidable truth is that we live in a system of debt slavery. The
indentured servant is now the indebted consumer, indebted to a modern
day aristocracy that thinks we are merely wage slaves and glorified
peasants. Instead of using the advancement of technology and exponential
increase in production, distribution and wealth creation to empower
humanity, these modern neo-feudal lords are pathological in their
shortsighted greed.
When you understand the wealth at hand, you begin to recognize the
crime against humanity that is afoot. We live in the richest, most
technologically advanced society in human history. Yet here we are, in the
21st century, with the highest number of people living in poverty in
American history. People can't afford to pay their medical bills. Millions
upon millions of American families foreclosed on. An all-time record
number of children going hungry, as record-breaking profits and recordbreaking
bonuses are handed out to the bailed out aristocracy. It's a
massive crime against humanity.
We have people walking this earth who crashed the global economy,
then profited from it. They are responsible for the impoverishment of tens
of millions of people, and for their recklessness, they get bailed out and
then have the audacity to not only keep their jobs, but to give themselves
all-time record-breaking bonuses, bonuses on the backs of hardworking
American taxpayers. Their scandalous and shameful behavior makes the
Robber Barons look like Boy Scouts. It's so shortsighted, unstable and
unsustainable. Pathological shortsighted greed is humanity’s most severe
disease.
To paraphrase Guy DeBord, ‘The economy has declared war on
humanity, attacking not only our possibilities for living, but our chances of
survival. When an all-powerful economy lost its reason - that's what
defines these times.’
We anticipate reactionary, propagandized minds impulsively
attempting to dismiss this perspective as a demonization of wealthy
