I am writing this economic protest letter because I am fed up with our rigged economic system and fearful that things are only going to get worse soon.
For most of my adult life I have been considered to be in the middle class, but now I consider myself to be just a slave to the corporate tricks and schemes of this messed up country.
I know for a fact that most of my financial problems are NOT my fault. Why?
Because I don’t control the minimum wage laws, I don’t control inequality schemes, I don’t control supply and demand cycles, I don’t write the federal tax laws for this country, etc., etc…
Another reason our country is getting financially messed up is because we have too many monopolies. Like military monopolies, medical monopolies, prison monopolies, technological monopolies, etc….
History shows that monopolies are well-known for reducing wages, controlling consumer prices, controlling slave employee benefits, killing competition, destroying workplace safety, and buying politicians.
Do we need more anti-trust enforcement?
Yes.
Do we need more anti-trust laws?
Yes.
But what might be even better is if we have a new political and economic system where monopolies can’t be created in the first place.
We need a new system that mostly benefits the middle class, one that helps it to grow and expand and stay healthy and happy all the time.
We don’t need systems or schemes that constantly hurt, attack, diminish and dehumanize the middle class on a regular basis.
The “American Dream” is just a slogan that the wealthy created in order to help keep most of us conditioned, tamed and obedient, (like dogs).
For the most part, The American Dream only exists for the wealthy.
I hope some of you will talk to your family, friends or others about this article.
I encourage everyone to do your own research at the library or online.
