The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks. Lord Acton

what stand out most is that the top classes on all levels except the very bottom have become more useless middle men of the mere money game. The
relegation of the warrior class to mere assets and gamesmanship is even more cold blooded than the seventeenth century professionalism. Capitalism this top heavy with Mammonite clergy, investor class structure and let's face it, bland tapioca thinking equally mushy social morals, is a teetering pyramid scam.

The ten thousand trend of human history is about to end one way or the other.
