Yes. You are correct. The rabbit hole goes even deeper. I've spoken about money a few times in my blog. There are other issues like your relationship to the state, how they turn your promissory notes into valuable securities and register them to get a CUSIP number and trade them on the markets as assets, which is another huge problem as debt should not be converted into an asset. That is not a morally or ethically valid activity. So now we are confronted with the choice: What are we going to do about it?

I chose to walk away and not play their game any more. Hence the subject matter of my entire blog. Welcome to steem!
