The problem is that the rewards for being a victim are not given freely, but taken by force. So you as the host can't just decide not to participate, you have to find a way to defeat the leaches. And fighting off the "victims", especially when the entire MSM/education/social media propaganda machine is against you, is not going to be easy or straightforward.

And the leaches are not going to give up the free meal without a fight.

Do you count bankers as leaches?

Why stop there? Most corporations serve the banksters and ruling class. The entire corporatocracy is a leach-mafia hierarchy.

In a different way, yes. But only those who manipulate markets. I don't think voluntary agreements can be called usery. So I disagree with the radical leftist claim that charging interest on loans is leaching, taking advantage, or inherently immoral.

Bankers and banking is not in itself usery.
