As proud capitalists, we must never neglect to totally-non-ironically pay homage to the three worst and most popular on-the-dl scams (in no particular order) in modern human civilization, without which our glorious way of life would simply not exist:
- Insurance.
- Credit (not just consumer credit but also stocks and loans of state, etc).
- Democracy.
In combination, the insurance and credit industries are almost solely
responsible for inflating the cost of (everything) so absurdly high
that both are now required to be able to "afford" anything. Each of them
is a giant economic ouroboros constantly swallowing up people's
livelihoods, shitting out the impoverished husks, and then feeding on
those perpetual-debt-turds in turn - and growing larger and hungrier
with every single bite. Mmmmmmmm. Freedom!
As far as democracy goes, there are only two kinds of people in the world: those folks who are intelligent enough to have studied a modicum of history and who have thus learned better... and those who fail to see that they're the reason it can never succeed.
