The globalized economy is a colossal Ponzi Scheme in which the vast majority survive on the bread crumbs falling off the table. The possibility of 7 billion people achieving a consumption-oriented lifestyle is zero, so the World Bank conveniently set the poverty line at $1.25/day to legalize global slavery. As long as someone else's children are doing the suffering, it's "all good". Post-2008, this illusion was extended merely by plundering all future generations.
Global corporations have destroyed the planet Destroyed the middle class Destroyed local economies Turned Democracy into a joke And dumbed down the populace to the level of a fucking brick "And on the sixth day, God created man in his own image"
To the all too few critics of the status quo, the blame for today's dysfunction are the invisible "deep state", the Rothschilds - whoever they are, George Soros, gays and lesbians, Hillary Clinton and CNN fake news. Unfortunately, the real blame for today's overwhelming clusterfuck is the multinational corporation. The goal of the corporation is to dumb down society to the point where they will support Supply-Side policies to eliminate their own jobs, pollute themselves with corporate toxic waste, and vote for candidates who will do everything possible to eliminate their healthcare coverage. Because, "it's the American Way". Sadly yet predictably the people who are victimized by this plot are not smart enough to figure it out: https://wallethub.com/edu/most-educated-states/31075/
