Land of the servants, as in debt servants. We have gone from the richest nation in the world to the biggest debtor nation the world has ever seen. Ever wonder why people just lay back and allow everything that is going on to happen? Why don’t people protest or do something about the tyranny and the government?
It’s because most people are slaves; DEBT slaves. Or debt serfs if you prefer. From Grandma and her reverse mortgage to college students, debt is enslaving most of the people in this country. And an indebted population is a subservient population. Your masters the banksters and the criminals in Washington own your debt, so they own you. You will obey when you have massive debt hanging over your head. Many people pay more in interest every month than they can afford.
Debt is social control, and works so well. Another great article by the maestro doomer at economic collapse blog.
Money Is A Form Of Social Control And Most Americans Are Debt Slaves
By Michael, on February 19th, 2013
Money Is A Form Of Social Control And Most Americans Are Debt Slaves Is America really “the land of the free”? Most people think of money as simply a medium of exchange that makes economic transactions more convenient, but the truth is that it is much more than that. Money is also a form of social control. Just think about it. What did you do this morning? Well, if you are like most Americans, you either got up and went to work (to make money) or to school (to learn the skills that you will need to make money).
We spend a great deal of our lives pursuing the almighty dollar, and there are literally millions of laws, rules and regulations about how we earn our money, about how we spend our money and about how much of our money the government gets to take from us. Not that money is a bad thing in itself. Without money, it would be really hard to have a modern society.
Unfortunately, our money is based on debt, and debt levels in the United States have exploded to absolutely unprecedented levels in recent years. The borrower is the servant of the lender, and if you are like most Americans, nearly every major purchase that you make in your life is going to involve debt. Do you want to get a college education so that you can get a “good job”? You are told to get a student loan. Do you want a car? You are encouraged to get an auto loan and to stretch out the payments for as long as possible. Do you want a home? You are probably going to end up with a big fat mortgage. And of course I could go on and on and on. The cold, hard truth of the matter is that most Americans are debt slaves. Most of us spend our entire lives trapped in an endless cycle of debt that we never escape until we die, and meanwhile our years of hard labor are greatly enriching those that own our debts.
Have you ever found yourself wondering why you can never seem to get ahead financially no matter how hard you work?
Well, it is probably because you have gotten yourself enslaved to debt.
Just consider the following example about credit card debt from a former Goldman Sachs banker…
On the debt side of things, how much does your credit card company earn if you carry just an average of a $5,000 credit card balance, paying, say, 22% annual interest rate (compounding monthly) for the next 10 years?
In your mind you owe a balance of only $5,000, which is not a huge amount, especially for someone gainfully employed. After all, $5,000 is just a quick Disney trip, or a moderately priced ski-trip, or that week in Hawaii. You think to yourself, “how bad could it be?”
The answer, including the cost of monthly compounding, is $44,235, or about 9 times what it appears to cost you at face value.
But a large percentage of Americans never pay off their credit cards at all. They make small payments each month, but then they just keep on adding to their balances.
In the end, that is financial suicide.
If you carry an “average balance” on your credit cards each month, and those credit cards have an “average” interest rate, you could end up paying millions of dollars to the credit card companies by the end of your life…
Let’s say you are an average American household, and you carry an average balance of $15,956 in credit card debt.
Also, as an average American household, let’s assume you pay an average current rate of 12.83%.
Finally, let’s assume you carry this average balance for 40 years, between ages 25 and 65. How much did your credit card company make off of you and your extreme averageness?
Answer: $2,629,618.64
Sadly, approximately 46% of all Americans carry a credit card balance from month to month.
How stupid can we be as a nation?
When you become enslaved to the credit card companies, your toil and sweat makes them much wealthier. It is a form of slavery that does not require anyone pointing a gun at you.
But we never seem to learn. Incredibly, 43 percent of all American families spend more than they earn each year.
As the chart below demonstrates, consumer credit actually declined for a short while during the last recession, but now it has turned around and the growth of consumer credit is on the same trajectory as it was before the last economic crisis…
Today, the total amount of consumer credit in the United States is 15 times larger than it was 40 years ago.
And every major “milestone” in our lives typically involves even more debt.
-The total amount of student loan debt in the United States recently passed a trillion dollars, and approximately two-thirds of all college students graduate with student loan debt at this point.
-Total home mortgage debt in the United States is now about 5 times larger than it was just 20 years ago, and mortgage debt as a percentage of GDP has more than tripled since 1955.
-Car loans just keep getting longer and longer, and approximately 70 percent of all car purchases in the United States now involve an auto loan.
-Want to get married? That average cost of a wedding is now $26,989 which is probably going to mean even more debt unless you have wealthy parents.
-Do you have a serious medical problem? According to a report published in The American Journal of Medicine, medical bills are a major factor in more than 60 percent of the personal bankruptcies in the United States. And guess what? 70% of those people had health insurance!
Are you starting to understand why approximately half of all Americans die broke?
And I have not even begun to talk about our collective debts yet.
Government debt is a collective form of debt. You may not have voted for any of the politicians that have been racking up debt in your name, but part of it still belongs to you.
Since the year 2000, state and local government debt has more than doubled. These are collective debts for which we are all responsible…
And of course the biggest collective debt of all is the U.S. national debt.
In a previous article, I discussed how the national debt has exploded out of control in recent years. If you can believe it, the U.S. debt to GDP ratio has increased from 66.6 percent to 103 percent since 2007, and the U.S. government accumulated more new debt during Barack Obama’s first term than it did under the first 42 U.S. presidents combined.
When you break things down by household, the numbers look even more frightening.
During Barack Obama’s first four years in the White House, the amount of new debt accumulated by the federal government breaks down to approximately $50,521 for every single household in the United States.
And as I have mentioned previously, if you started paying off just the new debt that the federal government has accumulated during the Obama administration at the rate of one dollar per second, it would take more than 184,000 years to pay it off.
Well, you might argue, none of that debt will ever be paid off in our lifetimes.
And you would be right.
But what we are doing is consigning our children, our grandchildren and all future generations of Americans to a lifetime of debt slavery.
How nice of us, eh?
Over the past 10 years, the U.S. national debt has grown by an average of 9.3 percent per year, but the overall U.S. economy has only grown by an average of just 1.8 percent per year.
How do we expect to continue doing this?
Fortunately, more Americans are starting to wake up to how foolish all of this is.
For example, the following is what Home Depot Founder Kenneth Langone told CNBC on Tuesday…
“The fundamentals haven’t changed … And we don’t know when the storm is going to hit,” he predicted. “It has to happen.If you look at our debt to GDP, eventually you reach a point where there’s no turning back.”
He used an analogy to make his point. “If you had one meal left, and you had your grandchild with you, would you eat if or give it to your grandchild?”
He said all people would say “give it to my grandchild.”
But pursuing the president’s vision, he argued, “[Is] eating the grandchildren’s breakfast, lunch and dinner right now. And the [grandchildren] haven’t been born yet.”
What we are doing to our children and our grandchildren is beyond criminal. We are selling away their futures in order to make our lives more pleasant.
Right now, we are stealing more than 100 million dollars from our children and our grandchildren every single hour of every single day.
So where is the outrage over this theft?
Sadly, most Americans don’t even realize that all of this is by design. When the Federal Reserve system was created back in 1913, it was designed to get the U.S. government trapped in an endless spiral of debt.
And it worked. Today, the U.S. national debt is now more than 5000 times larger than it was when the Federal Reserve was first created.
Our society has become addicted to debt, and that means that we have become addicted to slavery.
We are not the “land of the free”. The truth is that we are now the “land of the servants”.
Over the past 40 years, the total amount of debt owed in the United States (government, business, consumer, etc.) has grown from less than 2 trillion dollars to more than 55 trillion dollars…
So who benefits from all of this?
I talked about this in a previous article. The ultra-wealthy and the international bankers make enormous profits by lending money to all the rest of us.
According to a stunning report that was released last summer, the global elite have up to $32 trillion dollars stashed away in offshore tax havens around the globe.
How did they get so much money?
The borrower is the servant of the lender. They have gotten rich at our expense.
But most people live their entire lives without ever understanding how the game is being played.
Today, most Americans see that the Dow is back above 14,000 and they hear the mainstream media telling them that happy days are here again and so they just believe that things are going to turn out okay somehow.
And it certainly does not help that most people seem to let others do their thinking for them. In fact, about 23% of all Americans can’t even read at this point.
So is there any hope for us?

What I don’t get is how the fiscal conservatives have lost the propaganda war on this. Why not call deficit spending (at least by the Government) what it is:THEFT. We are STEALING from children and grandchildren who aren’t even born. It’s not unlike going out to eat at a nice restaurant with a bunch of friends, then sneaking out and stiffing them with the bill… except in this case the people you are leaving to pay the bill weren’t even there to begin with. You wouldn’t treat your friends this way, and yet it’s socially and morally acceptable to do this shit to our children. WTF?

The denominations of currency are a form a social control too. Why are there no $1000 bills? No $10,000 bills? Because they would be too hard to track (i.e. tax) that’s why. The lack of large denominations forces everybody into electronic transactions – which easier to tax and seize!
There’s a reason that ass-wipe paul krugman skipped straight to the trillion dollar coin rather than a 10 million dollar coin- because it would never be used in the private economy (unless we become zimbabwe).

Meet China’s Housing Debt Slaves
Submitted by Tyler Durden
Think Americans are the only people in the world toiling under a gargantuan, and unrepayable, debtload, which at last check was a massive $55.3 trillion, or about $175K per person? Think again. Meet Sherry Sheng, a 29-year-old Shanghai policewoman, who bought herself a 4,000 yuan ($642) black fur jacket, splurging for the last time before she starts paying off the mortgage on her first home.
Sherry is what is known as a Chinese “housing slave.”
Bloomberg explains:
Sheng is part of a generation of middle class that Chinese media has dubbed “fang nu,” or housing slaves, a reference to the lifetime of work needed to pay off their debts. They’re taking on mortgages even as the government maintains property curbs to damp prices that have almost tripled since China embarked in 1998 on a drive to increase private home ownership.
“It’s a treat for myself because I could never afford such a luxury after I start repaying my housing loans next month,” said Sheng, who paid 1.1 million yuan for the one-bedroom apartment on the city’s western outskirts and will be using about 70 percent of her salary to service her mortgage.
China’s growing middle class reaching for homeownership helped property prices rebound starting in the second half of last year. They rose 1 percent in January from December, the biggest gain in two years, according to real estate website SouFun Holdings Ltd. Home prices in Beijing and Shanghai each rose 2.3 percent from December.
Average per-square-meter prices in 100 cities tracked by SouFun are five times average monthly disposable incomes. A 100- square-meter (1,076-square-foot) apartment today costs about 40 years’ annual income, according to SouFun and government data, even as salaries have more than quadrupled since 1998.
Sheng was able to buy her 50-square-meter apartment after borrowing a combined 770,000 yuan through a 20-year mortgage from Agricultural Bank of China Ltd. and a 15-year loan from the local housing providence fund. Her parents helped with the 30 percent down payment. She will repay about 4,000 yuan a month for the home, a one-hour subway ride from central Shanghai’s historic Bund that cost 16 times her annual salary, based on the apartment price and her income.
Chinese homebuyers typically use 30 percent to 50 percent of their monthly incomes to repay mortgages, said Wu Hao, a manager at the loan brokerage of Bacic & 5i5j Group, Beijing’s second-biggest realtor for existing homes. It advises clients to keep monthly repayments lower than one-third of their incomes.

Cashin, Klarman, & Marks: “Un-abating Risks Of Collapse”
“….Another icon causing a lot of buzz was Howard Marks of Oaktree Capital. Warren Buffet once said something like – Whatever Howard Marks writes, I try to read. Marks gave an interview. Here’s a typical part:
The level of economic activity, anecdotal as you describe, is not an indication of health in the future. It is an indication of health in the present. The question is, what are the implications for the future? When you say restaurants are full and you can’t get a cab, there is no contravening the fact that the economy is doing well at the top. The problem is the people who are not in the upper strata; their incomes are flat to down, they are losing their overtime. The joblessness rate is up significantly and that excludes people who aren’t seeking jobs and are unemployed — their future is not good. The ratio of income from the top to bottom is higher than in the past, which itself is unhealthy.
In fact, restaurants were full in 2006 and early 2007 as well. So, don’t get carried away. The point the memo tried to make is that the world went through a period that is now about roughly 50 years old in which it levered up very substantially. Credit was available too freely, used aggressively, and people borrowed money to make expenditures. If you borrow money to take a vacation, a year later the vacation is over but you still have the debt. That is the status of the world today. The world borrowed a lot of money for expenditures, some of which were imprudent and today it is left with a hangover of debt and the current income, especially at today’s moderate levels, aren’t sufficient to amortise the debt. That is very worrisome and that is just one of the main things. You look all around the world and over-leveraging is the common thread.
Look at the average American. I have been telling my friends in Europe for several years that the average American has $1,000 in the bank, owes $10,000 on their credit card, makes $20,000 a year after taxes — by the way, I am exaggerating, these are not specific data but conceptual — and spends $22,000.
That is not healthy.”

Actually, the whole system is going to hit reset and all of these ‘debts’ are going to go away. No, I am not crazy. Eventually, the US is going to be forced into the equivalent of bankruptcy and the whole system is going to collapse.
What arises from the ashes will not be the same system. It will be something new but at the barter level, not the ‘for profit capitalist’ level. The wealthy are not buying land and resources because they are ‘profitable investments’, but because they will have some real value under the new system. China is not buying land and resources just for investments but to get rid of the Charmin dollars it holds for things of real value. Only fools worry about paper money problems as they will soon all go away, either by hyperinflation or outright collapse.

BS.
The notion that “we’re stealing from our grand kids” is silly. How on earth could we be consuming that which has not yet been created, e.g., our grand kids’ food, etc.?
All consumption is real time, meaning that debt-based over-consumption is simply eating today’s corn AND seed corn. To the extent that we are affecting the future with this astonishing stupidity, it is limited to crippling capital formation necessary for FUTURE production. That is the means by which we are making our grand children “poorer.”
This collective folly is also characterized by destroying the incentives for people to behave in socially beneficial ways…but then again that could be a chicken/egg problem. After all, this idiocy coule be seen as a result of people embracing the ease of robbing each other via the ballot box a la Mencken’s “sort of advance auction of stolen goods.”

Why does “everyone” seem to think a collapse in trust in IOUs (outstanding debt), IOUs that form part of the USD money supply, will lead to hyperinflation (AKA rapidly expanding money supply)????
If the Fed/US Gov cabal succeeds in showing that debasing the money supply is open-ended, and people begin to see reality, wouldn’t common sense (and grade school arithmetic) dictate a collapsing money supply?
Fewer $$$$ chasing fewer good$ and $ervice$ might not yield predictable price trends in all cases, but falling prices might well be a logical expectation, no?

What a timely article. My son and I were just talking about this last night, and I must say, I am very proud of him. While we don’t always agree, sometimes he does listen.
28 years old, he and his wife just gave me my second grandson and then announced they have paid off their 30 year mortgage in five years. Both of their used cars are also paid for, and they still have money in the bank. (Got to work on that one next) They are debt free at 28.
It can be done.
They live a comfortable life, as Stucky said a while back, a house is where you live, it’s not an investment.
My son and his wife both worked their way though community college, did not have a big expensive wedding, bought a house they could afford, bought cars with cash, and do not have credit cards.
So many of his friends got worthless degrees and are saddled with thousands in student loan debt, but can’t find a good job or pay their obligations.
So many of his friends bought the big house the bank said they could afford.
So many of his friends bought a house full of new furniture to fill the big house.
So many of his friends own two homes because they didn’t like the first one, bought another one, but can’t sell the first one for what they paid so they rent it.
So many of his friends bought a new car because the bank said they could buy it.
So many of his friends use their credit card to buy a pizza, in effect, taking out a loan to buy a pizza.
All of his friends believe the government should bail them out because it’s not their fault.

We choose to be debt slaves because we are envious and want to keep up with our neighbors. I know, I know we have to play the game from time to time. Education is one example. Honestly it is better to get your first two years of college from a reasonable community colllege and come out with a associates degree. That degree will allow you to transfer all of your credits to another college to complete your 4 year degree.
A home is a huge liability and if you buy one I will give some here the advice I gave my children. Buy a home you can afford based on one person’s salary, period. If you cannot afford a home on one person’s income then honestly you cannot afford a home at this time.
I am debt free and have been for many years. I do without until I can save to pay cash for it. Whats sad to be honest is people blame others for basically taking on more and more debt only to loose everything because if this. You do not need to do this and I am sure to be flamed for stating this. Some of my friends are in so deep they will never dig their way out of this and complain daily. But they have a vehicle for every child and one for him and one for her. Do you really need all of tese vehicles. Most likely no.
You and you alone can stop the beast encroaching on your lives. STOP PLAYING THE DEBT GAME if you can. I learned a valuable lesson a long time ago. No matter what you spend, no matter what you do tere will always be someone better off then you. Who cares really.

Obama is commie satanist, possibly even the anti-Christ, but also a pussie for not nuking Iran. George Bush is Jeebus incarnate albeit without the love and mercy crap holding him back from kicking some woebegotten ass.
George “Jeebus ” or a ‘publican of equal character sitting in the POTUS seat would nuke Iran thereby restoring American honor and prosperity.
Democrats forced the noble bankers to make the hundred of billions of dollar of low doc/nodoc/ liars loans/bad mortgages now languishing on Freddie Mae and Freddie Mac books.
Debt backed money has no negative affect on the economy.The lack of sound monetary policies affects no one personally.
Over decades ,inflation is irrelevant because “people make more money today.”
The economy will come back if the GOP can just take back the Whitehouse.
There is a hundred years supply of oil sitting in the national parks , but the tree hugging democrats won’t let it be extracted from mother Gaea.
There are aplenty of jobs in America , but people just don’t want to do them .
Republicans want to grant amnesty to illegals because there are not enough Americans who want to work.
Manufacturing jobs are not needed.Service sector jobs are of equal value and can sustain the American economy if people would just want to work.
If we could all just be like the Chinese workers.(loopyisms in the wild)

“We’ll know our Disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” – William Casey, CIA Director 1981
As any regular reader of this fringe outpost on teh interwebz knows, I’m partial to a few phrases I use frequently to reflect on the conditions of our “Brave New World Order.” One of them is “We the Sheeple.”
Some people have taken offense to my use of the term. Even after I clarified that when I use the term, I’m usually referring to the way in which the elite overlords or our society view us – myself included; that we are nothing but cattle to them – some still find the term offensive. Bah. Or should I say…B-A-A-A-A…
We are treated however they wish to treat us. If we want to travel, we have a choice between getting radiated or gate raped by the uniformed goons THEY have stationed at all of our airports.
If we want to grab a quick bite to eat at a restaurant, THEY have given us a choice of toxic feed products to choose from. We can have genetically modified grain flours that destroy our guts, often combined with partially hydrogenated vascular clogging lipids and flavored with high fructose diabetes serum. Oh, and don’t forget the Monosodium excito-toxin brain wasting flavors!
If we want to get some enervating, immunity system boosting sunshine, THEY insist we must slather on a toxic cocktail that will inhibit our bodies natural ability to produce the life giving Vitamin D unobstructed sunshine provides us.
If we get sick from a lifetime of eating the FEED they slop us all with, and are deficient in the sunshine vitamin, we then get sick and have to report to the medical-pharmaceutical-healthcare-insurance-industrial complex to receive treatment. Some of these treatments work wonderfully.
Others…hasten our demise. In either case, THEY profit at our expense.
In short, our disease is the harvest THEY reap.
Their number one means of making sure we are all trapped in the infernal CSFO (Concentrated Sheeple Feedlot Operation) they’ve created for us, is their mass media indoctrination system. Through it, they construct the barricades of our confinement within our very minds, simply by telling We the Sheeple what we are supposed to think…over and over and over again.
Want to know what 21st century sheeple are thinking about? Turn on the Tell-A-Vision or pickup a magazine at the checkout stand at your nearest FEED-lot distribution center. Or look at a billboard looming over the nearest highway. Or turn on your radio and hear the Sheeple programming broadcast in stereo, 24-7.
If you consume this programming with a critical eye, you will begin to recognize a pattern of attitudes and belief systems THEY are seeking to inculcate into our minds.
Here are some of the sheeple progamming notes, identified in the alt-market.com article,
Sheeple: Another Look At A Sad Breed:
Never Questions The Professional Class
Sheeple are easily impressed by anyone with a nice suit, uniform, lab coat, or an embossed diploma or title. They see and revere the costume, regardless of the man inside it. For sheeple, titles and positions of arbitrary authority make the opinions of a man more than opinion; his opinions suddenly become law.
