The Financial Aristocracy is Banking on Society Being Distracted and Fragmented

in #politics6 years ago (edited)

Some time ago the people of the New World got fed up of the rule of Monarchy, where the rich rulers could take more and more from them. They wanted equal rights for all. They created a new nation that would try to build that ideal.

And they did try. They some things wrong at first (slavery) but made things better over time. The original goal was to prevent being ruled by the rich and powerful aristocrats and rulers that were often controlled by the rich.

But this idea has taken a side step as the rulers of finance are engaging in greater self-enrichment as exploiters of the exploited. And we're ll too busy with social distractions being fragmented by them to see the financial aristocracy.

Socialism has crept in with demands for free everything, or nearly. Free healthcare, fee education, and even Universal Basic Income. All the while, many of the aristocrats seem to support such goals. Could they be orchestrating these social moves behind the scenes?

It's not some wild speculation. Soros is one of them, and he has funded many leftist movements of late.

The cartels of banking, healthcare, defense and education already make so much money. More welfarism doesn't mean they will do the work for free, but that the more money is given to them to do more of the work. They will make billions more to further enrich and empower themselves.

Even with UBI, they will still win, as those with debts will surely have their UBI deducted from based on debt they own to debtors who will profit. The financial aristocracy won't simply forgive debtors, they will collect, and the UBI is another mechanism for them to get richer.

With all the injustice, it's no surprise that people are seeing it and wanting things to change. They want more equal treatment under the law, more social justice and righteousness. Having all citizens treated lawfully is a foundation of American culture. Slavery was opposed by many before it was outlawed, as many people knew what was right from wrong.

Today, there is corruption and wrongdoing, and many people see it, but it's not "against the law" so it continues. And much corruption evades the law, due to the power wielded by the power of wealth. A new aristocracy has emerged to bring us back into a neofeudal aristocracy.

Many social justice issues are fabricated and superfluous, only serving to distract and fragment the populace from seeing the larger picture: the rise of the financial aristocracy and their informal power over the nations of the world. They pretend they "earned" their way through the free market, but that's not quite true. Those who control the creation of money haven't played by honest rules to being with.

The technocracy of big tech also is mostly left-leaning, and they move with the ridiculous pseudo "social justice" distractions that keep eyes off their power and control. They then use that power over information to control what can or can't be read, heard or watched. Censorship has risen greatly in the past 2-3 years.

The rich exploit their power through the support of statism: government power. The cartels of the banking, healthcare, defense and education are all protected and supported by the centralized power of the state, from local to federal. Banksters come out on top as the populace is taxes to pay for interest on debt to finance many of the cartels.

The 90% of us that are the exploited, see a wider gulf created between us and the top 5% exploiters, and we're too busy fighting about distractionary fake social justice stories that the mainstream media feeds us. The media circus tears us apart psychologically as we are too busy trying to have fun and enjoy life to figure out what's happening to us.

They don't need formal titles to rule over us. It's better for them that way. We can't see it as well. While we point to the titled of Senator this, Congressman that, and President whoever, the real rulers continue to exploit and milk us into greater economic slavery. The economy has been manipulated for decades and centuries, and we don't see the game being played on us as the great exploitation nears it's ugly end game and is ready to blow up and make us all suffer greatly in a coming financial collapse.

Slavery is alive and well.
The invisible chains of debt slavery shackle us all.

I even make the argument that it shackles the upper class, because they are holding back humanity as a whole. They look at life as a relative competition rather than how far we could have gotten if we had all worked together.

Yup, covert is harder to see, but there can be more pervasive as hardly anyone sees it ongoing. Indeed, if we worked to evolve consciousness we could be at a different level of progress for humanity.

I think the rich have always controlled about as much as they do now; more things are just being monetarized. Wages are going down in real terms but somethings such as entertainment are getting cheaper. I am concerned about censorship and the herd mentality. We live in a fragile world of fake it 'til you make it.

Yes, the rich have always been in a large power holding position, and there is more wealth being extracted now so they are regaining power lost in the past where a middle class emerged.
