Great post...I agree with you 1000%.
The politicians are owed by the bankers. They are the ones with all the money, own the stock, and control the lobbyists. Almost all the laws are written to favor them at our expense. We operate in the scarcity model which also favors those who have the resources. To add to our suffering, they create boom/bust cycles which they exit at the top and have the money to buy at the bottom.
Capitalism has turned into a huge caste system. There isnt upward mobility anymore. In fact, any mobility is heading down. The destruction of the middle class proves this point.
