Whether it is inflation, stagflation, or deflation. It always adds up to the rich getting richer.
The reason for this is because all of the money in the world regardless of how it is spent ends up right back in their pockets. They don’t care about taxes because they don’t pay them. They don’t care about the laws because they make them. They don’t care about inflation because they already own everything.
We’ve returned to the kingdoms and peasants of old.
It’s like a game of Monopoly on a massive scale.
And people are realizing that. That’s why so many jobs go unfilled. Not because people are lazy. It’s because they don’t pay for the cost of living.
We wouldn’t expect a factory to build a car at a loss, so why should we expect workers to work for a wage at a loss?
Work more hours?
You know there is a term for people whose life purpose is just ‘to work’…..
The promise of capitalism was freedom. And when the price of freedom is out of reach, the only real difference between capitalism and slavery is getting to choose your owner.
Capitalism by its nature is a selfish system. If you’re not eating someone else’s lunch, it means that someone is eating yours.
If this system has failed you, then there is no reason to uphold it for those who have benefited from it.
Remember this when it’s time to rebuild.
