The central issue of our times:

The power to tax is the power to enslave.

For what are you willing to be a slave?

For what are you willing to enslave others?

Pass it on. Claim it as your own.

Note: this is an update of a previous post to make it clearer.

There are many forms of slavery.


"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The Bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create deposits, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of Bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create deposits." — SIR JOSIAH STAMP, (President of the Bank of England in the 1920's, the second richest man in Britain):

Then there's this.

...I am convinced that the agreement [Bretton Woods] will enthrone a world dictatorship of private finance more complete and terrible than and Hitlerite dream. It offers no solution of world problems, but quite blatantly sets up controls which will reduce the smaller nations to vassal states and make every government the mouthpiece and tool of International Finance. It will undermine and destroy the democratic institutions of this country - in fact as effectively as ever the Fascist forces could have done - pervert and paganise our Christian ideals; and will undoubtedly present a new menace, endangering world peace. World collaboration of private financial interests can only mean mass unemployment, slavery, misery, degradation and financial destruction. Therefore, as freedom loving Australians we should reject this infamous proposal. -- Labor Minister of Australia, Eddie Ward, during the inception of the World Bank and Bretton Woods, he gave this warning.

Yes. But generally you don't deal with all the issues at once. First the politicians then the bankers. The indirect approach. Weakest link first.

Then there are wage slaves, and some people addicted to drugs end up practically being sex slaves or thieves to support the habit. Some gang members feel like slaves to a crime boss, but they're too terrified to get out. Some people are enslaved by religious beliefs, and if you didn't have a big federal government in the U.S. determined to get it's way, real slavery might still exist in the south.

We are all slaves to plants and oxygen. If pot could be freely grown it might cost $10 or $60 for a years supply ($10 a pound for hot house stuff - compare with tomatoes). About $5 a month (under 20 cents a day) very worst case. Some slavery.

For opium let us say 10X that. Probably less but who knows? Terrible slavery $600 a year worst case. Under $2 a day.

The reasons it is so expensive now is strictly a function of Prohibition.

But all that is beyond the point. Should government control any of it? Can it?

Child abuse is the key to all of it. PTSD.
