Modern Serfdom

Here are some observations by Michael Krieger:

So you see, debt’s not just a means to subjugate a desperate bottom half of the population, it’s concurrently an effective tool to expand wealth and power at the top.

I doubt there are many people who think the current US economic system is fair or equitable. It should be easy to see why those at the top prefer a Mike Bloomberg to a Bernie Sanders or to someone with Trump's early desire to "drain the swamp". They have no intention of sharing the wealth they have stolen from us earned fair and square.
