    The big idiot thing amongst the rich is that they can just pay the poor to be their security when the **** hits the fan. Think about that. Say you have all them factories and farm and gold and money. In a world where you have to fight to keep what you have.

    You going to trust a security guard?

    Everyone. Because they ARE the security guards.

    THe ultimate weapon here is fear. Either they do it your way or society collapses. Cases-in-point: Trump's election, Brexit, the power of the Catholic Church in it;s heyday.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    The system is specifically designed to take our money,what little most of us have,and give it to the greedy bastards who run the system.Its about transfer of wealth.From us to them.Take housing as a prime example,this now clear to anybody that is able to discern,the name of the new game is to abolish private ownership of property,because that doesn't make enough money for the system,and who are we to think that we should OWN our own house.No.The idea is that we rent from vulture funds for our entire lives,because that makes them lots of money,and they still have the house after we die,so they can rent it to someone else.Plus if we do own our own house,they don't want our children getting it,so they dream up laws and taxes to get the house some other way.The system is only going to get worse,and work for less and less people.Unfortunately,if we look at Catalonia,or the yellow vest movement in France,the system doesn't like it when we challenge its authority,and violence is only acceptable when it comes from the system,not towards it.

    The poor seem to be rising up against the wives of ministers now. You can lower the belt but these guys will just keep punching under it.
