More and more money is borrowed into the system with more and more interest piling up. We the people don't borrow it so why do we have to service the debt. Shouldn't there be revolution tomorrow morning! Do we like being tax slaves to a private central bank?

Because people are social creatures. Freedom and independence are values that have to be instilled in them - it is not in their nature to desire neither. But they can be trained to give praise to these values if it secures them a place in the herd.

People like the founding fathers of America - they were a special breed brought together by circumstance, and we can't relive their struggle as our world is different from theirs. In their day, they could pack up and leave their countries and settle in America - using up the resources that were plenty. Now there is no place to run to. And people are as much a social creature today as back then, and we only kid ourselves if we believe we can turn them around on their leaders in revolt.

People are good natured, and don't want to upset the order of society if they can avoid it. They can't be compelled by ideals; they must be directed by laws even if they are tyranical. To belong is far more valuable than principles and independence.

So, that's why people don't revolt. They're comfortable and well fed as well.

If Karl Marx spent more time making capital than thinking about capital, we wouldn't find us in this mess we are now.
