You obviously have given great thought and study to historical economics. I can't see a flaw in anything you have written. I have never been a true conspiracy theorist, but it does appear that more than in anytime in history there is a conspiracy to create a world with two classes, the very wealthy and multitudes of poor people, or what you call slaves. We appear to have learned little from the infamous "tulip bubble", 1929 market crash or the more recent dot com bust. Even a simple mind like mine though can clearly see that no money or things of monetary value was thrown in a fire. It just changed hands, and overwhelmingly the exchange benefited the wealthy, reduced much of the middle class and devastated the poor. Our government supported corporate world is structured the same now as then, only worse. The wealthy will emerge even wealthier when the dust settles after a big down turn, middle class reduced again and the poverty level class will grow in number. In the unlikely event of no large pull back in the market, the rich will benefit with their investments while a large majority will take a further step back due to not being invested, it takes all they have just to survive. Either way the wealthy win and the middle class and poor lose. I'm not a communist but there has to be a better way of wealth distribution, or as you might call it more survival value for the majority and fewer benefits for those that can lose a fortune and still have more than they could ever need or use. Even our middle class are tricked into contributing to the problem by greed and the pursuit to possess more than they need. Eventually most of them will pay a heavy price.

I'm not bright enough to offer a solution the powers that be would allow. But I long for and dream of a life my Grandparents lived in the deep country of Alabama. They had very little of what we call valuables, but through hard work on their small farms they never went hungry, had adequate clothing, shelter. Waste was a sin, frugality was an enjoyable hobby. Did not envy rich people and were thankful for what they had. Although they lacked in formal education I was taught a particularly valuable lesson. They considered the lack of money as a state of finances, and poor was just a state of mind. They never felt poor even though they had very little money and shared what they had with people less fortunate. Their priorities were very commendable, and they were happy. In real terms they were extremely rich.]]> Mon, 18 Jun 2007 15:06:41 -0400
