Actually we can go back thousands of years.

It isn’t just the US that has the problem, it is the rest of the world also, except maybe the countries being pillaged.

Why do we have a drive to surround ourselves with personal “wealth?”, when we know it is gained at someone else’s expense? Part of the illness we are suffering from is the gaslighting done to us by the system, to the effect that we’ve lost all understanding of our function, and our significant value as human individuals. We do not need possesions to be valuable as humans, if no-one would take advantage of us because of that.

Now, we should realise the real source of the problem, it is within all of us who live in societies built on the pillage of others, as well as our planet.

The evidence of it is all around us, the shit we got, including our “Investments”, living off others, mostly in distant places dying by the thousands, often violently.

Their blood, each and every one of them, is on our hands, each and every one of us hustling, hoarding, and hodling, just as is the polution of our planet.

Now that we also know money is free, as we are connected electronically, there is no longer any excuse to keep practicing the stupidity and cruelty of scarcification.

The nightmare can only be perpetuated if a minority, those still happy with the broken system, can repair the elusion that scarcity, and thus investments, or even hard work, or sacrifice of any kind are necessary.
