RE: Slavery: One who is excessively dependent upon or controlled by something (Oxford dictionary)
I agree. The correct term is 'inter-independence' but the idea is the same. There is no way that the state would ever teach that as they only hint at independence. The level of independence they want to teach is people working their jobs and consuming in order to keep the machine running. All they care about is people participating in the 'economy'. That requires an intimate level of dependency in order to keep that machine going. I call it the 'hamster wheel'. We are trained to turn the wheel and enjoy the exercise. Independence and inter-independence puts them out of a job, out of control with no power, authority or influence. They are done. That scares them.
