"Capitalism is the banks, not the government."
Wrong.
Capitalism is the billions of voluntary exchanges between people.
“Here’s another telling chart, this one is from the World Bank. In 1820, 94% of people lived in extreme poverty. Thanks to capitalism, by 2015, that number had declined to 9.6%, single digits for the first time in human history. Now, it’s still too many, but if we are going to reduce the number even more, we need to understand what caused the decline: free-market capitalism.”
The Market Will Set You Free
Fact Question 3
“If we combine the Angus Madison hockey stick chart and the World Bank data on extreme poverty what we get is something quite amazing. Unprecedented global prosperity and an unprecedented decline in poverty - across the globe - over the past 200 years. That’s capitalism in a nutshell.” Op. Cit.
Cut taxes, cut regulations, and, as Trump proved, the natural capitalism of the people will create prosperity.
MAIN FACT:
The US government is in bankrupcy since decades ago.
What caused it?: Capitalism
How?
Rather than collecting the money directly from you it does it by collecting thru the government.
The debtor is a slave of the loaner.
When you pay taxes, that money is distributed for many programs.
However, the taxes collected are not enough to cover the demand from those programs.
Then the government has to use its "credit card".
The credit card debt is paid in small payments, so interest is added.
The credit card reaches its limit and the loaner concedes to increase the limit of the debt.
A never end game where the capitalism system originates for governments to become the slaves.
Then, governments are slaves of the banks and banks control them.
Your idea of less taxes causes the government to have less funds for programs and less "income" to pay the debt.
Then, at the end your ideology is nuts.
The new slavery is no more persons as slaves, but today is governments as slaves, just look the US budget always going deeper in more debt.
Beyond the trick of the credit card given to governments, the banks have investors who own companies, like arms production.
When a government needs new weapons, this government is forced to choose the company imposed by the bank, otherwise the debtor government will be in trouble.
Banks are the ones who caused the great depression, banks are the ones who cause wars. Oil corporations have investments in banks, then these companies also manipulate wars in order to take control of the oil production.
This is the reason why you pay for cheaper but bloody gasoline to fill up your car gas tank. Innocent people from other countries have been killed in order for you to enjoy cheap gasoline. But you don't notice it because you have been told the troops are defending you and not that the troops have been sent to steal the wealth from other countries.
And this is not a negative message but the crude reality which ruled since man made societies. The stronger group always abusing the rest.
There is not a single empire in the world reaching such status because freedom and hard working people.
Empires reach their status by taking other nations wealth, this is history in progress and will never change.
Then you might ask, why other systems like socialism has not reached a greater position?
The answer is very simple.
Capitalism has "money" to corrupt people and money to pay and destroy any competitor.
In the 70's several countries in South America acquired socialist tendencies. Then capitalism used the US to break such tendency. This is to say, the only way to protect capitalism is by destroying the other tendencies.
Why the US can't pay its national debt?
Simple: capitalism forces the government to accept over priced contracts to cause the debt to increase each year.
Capitalism manipulate the media and promotes political leaders making you to pay less taxes in order for them to become more popular, but at the end, the national debt increases and the banks collect more money because the interest. When you pay taxes, a great percent of your money goes to the banks not so to government programs.
And rather than base your messages on "government or world agencies diagrams" telling you poverty is disappearing, better go a visit those poor countries and check if what they say is true, and if they are not in misery, ask why.
For example, visiting Panama's Darien area, which is the poorest zone at the south of that country, old farmers who never contributed a single penny from their production, which is small anyway, today they receive by their age a monthly check.
This new help for those old people is a new government program, but it is not a capitalist idea but a socialist one.
Then, if your diagram is correct, not necessarily is thanks to "capitalism". Who knows how much the debt of Panama will increase thanks to such a program. When Greece was in bankruptcy, The US and other countries offered "loans" rather than sending help. The Greek government rejected the loans.
Loans make you slave.
Jesus lived in a world where capitalism was in charge, but he didn't promote it, no word from him telling you to get rich and enjoy such a wealthy. Not a word telling you that you can't get rich as well.
On the other hand, when Jesus comes again, his kingdom won't follow capitalism, neither socialism, and etc.
It will be a system made to avoid corruption, because capitalism is the cause of the biggest political corruption scandals in the world. There are no expectations for being applied when the new kingdom comes.
