As long as your country has debt you cannot escape economic slavery.
Bankers run the world. Bankers start wars. Wars put your country deeper in debt. The bankers always win and you always lose because you have accepted the foolish notion of just invasions.

Just look how much the US government is spending on the military and how little on social programs. Israel has universal healthcare and we are giving them billions every year. Ukraine is getting all sorts of weapons from the US government and we get nothing back but the bill.
Why are people happy with their economic slavery?
@Metal-Brain saidBecause slaves often have more of a toned physique than the people who enslave them, and I don't mind paying that price if I get to look foxy?

Plus, what exactly could I do about it? Similar to "the poor are always with us" it could also be said: "the rich are always with us."
The rich are always with us by and by.
They'll take your mom and dad and make you cry.
Their sins for all we know could be innumerable,
So don't consider them to be consumable.
@Arkturos saidWhat Andrew Jackson did about it. Read the article I posted in my OP.

I would like to add that if communism is bad because central control is bad what does that make central banks? A tool of communists?

From the link below:
The recharter bill easily passed both houses of Congress in 1832. Saying “The bank is trying to kill me, but I will kill it,” Jackson issued a potent veto message. The fate of the bank then became the central issue of the presidential election of 1832 between Jackson and Clay. Jackson concluded from his victory in that election that he had a mandate not only to refuse the bank a new charter but to destroy as soon as possible what he called a “hydra of corruption.” (Many of his political enemies had loans from the bank or were on its payroll.)

@Metal-Brain saidOK, but a century later in the radio days of the 1930s some people imagined we would have electro-gravitic engines and death-rays and that both Venus and Mars would be habitable and maybe even inviting vacation spots.

What ever happened to all of that?
@Arkturos saidYeah, well I still think beaming people up is impossible. I can't stop fiction.

People come up with all sorts of things that defy science reality. People traveling to another star system is unrealistic since they are so far away from each other. The nearest star is about 4 light years away. People would not live long enough to make it. That is a job for robots, not people.
@Metal-Brain saidWell… nobody’s whipping me. And I work my own hours, I can go anywhere I want, ai buy lobsters just to make sauce with…

If this is slavery, it ain’t too bad.
@Metal-Brain saidStill don't understand relativity, eh?
