Capitalism and Manufacturing (the Financial Trap We Are In)

One thing about real money, is that it changes the dynamics/choices of what you will trade it for.

Fiat currency is going down in value, so you want to get rid of it as fast as possible. You want something right now, and so you trade the fiat for cheap Chinese goods.

When you have real money, money that is appreciating in value, you do not want to trade for junk. With real money, you want to buy a toaster that lasts 30 years, to make it worth you parting with it.

But, is this all? Will the future bring even more quality, performance and value? You know, the things that capitalism was supposed to have brought us?

Planned Obsolescence Why Does It Exist?

Because we have allowed fiat currency to be printed, you have to continually chase fiat dollars. You have to keep up with the currency printing.

If you build a factory, you want the income to continue coming in. If we had a more wholesome financial system, a factory owner would be happy that they fulfilled everyone's need, and shrink, or close down their factory. The workers can go apply their efforts to other endeavors.

But, we live in a world where you constantly need to "make money" to live. The factory is built, it must continue making widgets. The widgets must continue to be sold. Currency must continue to flow. What to do? Make the widgets wear out faster, or change their style, so everyone has to buy new ones.

And so, we find ourselves in a world where we make junk, just to continue selling junk, just to continue to get a paycheck, to buy more junk.

Basically, we are wasting our time, over and over again because banksters.

Mortgages keep you running on the hamster wheel.

There is an argument that a house is paid for when it is built. All the labor, all the materials, the land, it was all paid for. And from an effort/work point of you, that is correct. It is the monetary side that demands forever payments.

What is the difference between the Amish coming together to build a new house for a new couple that is starting a family, and a construction crew slapping up houses in a tract? Financing.

We are supposed to live in a world where "money" is used to make barter easier. But, that is not even close to reality.

So, that house, was built. Whether by Amish friends, or by a group of professional construction workers. But, the Amish house is all paid for. No debt. No continual payments. The tract house is, in opposition, financed for life (mort-gage). Always paying the banksters. Three to five times the price is paid to the banksters over years.

People have to continue making widgets, to make currency, to pay the mortgage to the bank.

And, you have to continue chasing the house price. Every mortgage makes it more expensive. The currency the banksters print out of thin air, is just sucking up more and more labor.

The Bankster Hamster Wheel

If you put these two together, you find that the banksters are just making you run faster and faster on the hamster wheel.

You/we are literally just wasting our time for banksters.

The banksters print money to lend to corporations to cover their float, to pay their employees, who get the paychecks, and put it back in the banks, to pay their mortgages.

We should have paid off houses. We should have appliances that last for 50+ years. If we grow our own food, we should have nothing but free money and/or free time.

Think about your life if you didn't have to pay taxes (taxes go back to the Fed) or a mortgage, or a car payment. You would putz around in the garden for couple hours a day, and you would have nothing you needed to do for the rest of the day.

You already worked enough. You paid everything off.

Take out the banksters printing currency, and this is exactly what you have.

And, then what about planned obsolescence?

If you had to get off your butt to build a refrigerator, would you cut corners, to save a few hours, or would you make it the strongest, sturdiest, easily repairable refrigerator you were capable of? Build a new one in five years? Or Build a new one in fifty years?

This is what we let the banksters rob from us.

We have let them use the printed money to buy up all the manufacturing plants. And all the houses.

We literally run around on a hamster wheel, because they printed money, and we sold everything to them.

The futuristic world were we work less than 10 hours a week… the banksters stole that form us. And they will be hung from lampposts because of it.
