I was referring to the /r/wallstreetbets chaos on reddit.

But the great reset is also a major problem.

I disagree with the capitalism=ponzu argument. It is self sufficient as long excessive stress (like illegal immigration) is avoided. The circulation of money in an economy is unavoidable and despite what the socialists say, the dragons sitting on their piles of gold don't damage the economy by existing, but rather by choosing tax-free purchase options (and not all rich people do that.)

Muh capitalism, Muh free markets.

People need to get it through their heads that the truth is this and always will be: the US WAS FOUNDED ON A CONSPIRACY AND THE REVOLUTION WAS LOST BY DAY ONE.

The US is quasi private/public corporation dictating for company policy and is entirely SELF-FUNDING. Unfortunately they are using our legal person status and writing us down on their books and then charging us for all kinds of things when the contract is tacit and nothing more.

The goldites own the credit passed off as money which means they dictate US policy. Problem is gold has no intrinsic value. Only production of the necessities does but the plutocracy can't care less.

Well... yeah. The less free the market, the less successful the capitalism.

US WAS FOUNDED ON A CONSPIRACY

Conspiracy to commit treason. Yes. That's how some revolutions can happen.

REVOLUTION WAS LOST BY DAY ONE.

What? The british crown has no legal authority over the internal operations of the states. I'd call that a win in my book.

The US is quasi private/public corporation

Most capitalistic societies are in one form or another. Even china to a very limited extent has some aspects of capitalistic practices in their market.

and is entirely SELF-FUNDING.

Taxes. The moral acquitision of such is questionable even at the best of times, but it's the easiest way for the government to attain money from the market around it. Usually through legal red tape, diplomatic lies, and sometimes by use of lethal force if they think there's enough money to profit off the cost.

when the contract is tacit

Failure of the public school system imo. Or they designed it to be intentionally obtuse in that way. I wish tax law was taught in high school. lol.

The goldites own the credit passed off as money which means they dictate US policy.

Most of the policy, but not all of it. I agree with you. It is a serious problem that's being continuously ignored.

Problem is gold has no intrinsic value.

Value is dictated by perceived worth and scarcity. It's how bitcoin maintains worth to the USD despite both being physically worthless in non-trade applications.

Only production of the necessities does but the plutocracy can't care less.

Fastest way to change a government: Reduce the food supply.

That's the reason why dumb, fat, and happy people make the best servants to rule over. What are they gonna do? Revolt? The battery on their scooter can't make it up the driveway to the mansion. Unless there's a chicken leg taped to it, most people do not care about pitchforks, and with the illusion of debt to act as a further stranglehold the rich really don't have much to fear.

At the bare minimum, if your life depended on it, you only need 2 acres of land to farm with and the occasional hunted animal. Yet nobody within 50 miles of me has their own garden or knows how to catch anything. They don't need to. You can order a pizza and it shows right up to your door.

People know their rights when they need them, and disregard their rights when they don't. Roof over your head? Food on the table? Braindead tv to drool at? The state provides. And so long as it does these people would let their neighbor burn to death rather than miss the next episode of American Idol.
