Durden was right. First step to freedom is eliminating debt, freeing ourselves of this conceptual bondage, and breaking the financial chains.steemCreated with Sketch.

The bubble of fiat needs to keep expanding for the economy to continue to function. We are being coerced to continue consuming at obscene rates. Credit cards, student loans, overdrafts, mortgages, car loans... the more of these, the healthier the economy... huh?

To keep consuming, we need credit. Credit creates more debt. More debt binds us more to the system. Rinse and repeat. This is how liberty is lost.

Every year, more profit is being made from lending, not from hiring workers and certainly not from providing quality services and quality goods.

How the FUCK did our system disconnect so severely from reality, real life, real value?

The debt structure we live under is meant to keep us not only down, but so down that we're below 0.

Well spoken and it bears repeating over and over until people get it in their heads. I, by no means, am perfect in this regard. However the conscious steps forward in eliminating debt is what is important. Thank you for sharing. I'm tapped out on my voting power, but I'll give you a resteem until I'm recovered. Have a look at my blog, there is plenty in there about cryptos... and well, everything.

Cheers,
