Its obvious that many of these people dont even know what the word means, but Ive notice that Fox News using this word quite a lot to fear their viewers?

"If you dont vote red, then socialism will eat your babys and shit on your belly"
We got rid of slavery a long time ago, some of you want to bring it back.

I whisper, "no"

Time to transition to an arts and crafts economy away from a big box industrial retail economy.

Wouldn't rampant and unchecked capitalism run by corporation lead directly back to slavery?

Honestly, the business owners outsourcing living costs and welfare responsibilities to slaves by making them self owned was a genius move.

I wouldn't expect an Englishman to recognize freedom if it bit him like one of your famous eel pies.

It wasn't that genius, because they have to simulate a market crash every decade to put them back on the plantation, which causes an unnecessary hardship for most, and inadvertently places their own at risk of falling out of the social stratosphere if one generation shirks the educational responsibility.

It also provides an avenue for upward mobility, if you can read between the lines and crack the DaVinci Code while they're circling the wagons, so to speak.

If you're willing to make the necessary sacrifices during the moments of contraction, that is.

nah br0, the real stratosphere is totally passive income and permawealth. Only breaks if nations collapse and currencies aren't shuffled proper, like on a thousand-year scale. Those who can fall out of the lower atmosphere aren't the powerful.
