there is no big difference actually between serfdoom to financial nobility (bank/billionaires/equity billionaires with passive incomes) and official nobility (kings, firsts, barons, etc)
A serf cannot be king. A salaryman can become a banker or billionaire, etc. Life still sucks but there are more options to rise up in the ladder or at least life comfortably. Know the rules well and get your game up.
thats true, but only if the money the servants/salary slave money/capitalist earns is being treated with wisdom,
in a corrupt republic you money gets inflated away quickly, and only hard currencies count,
All societies devolve and they collapse eventually. The current system can too. We have come to the point where competition can easily be quashed by the big players, that has already gained enough power to influence politicians.
We use their fiat because we have to but that doesn't mean we shouldn't prepare for whatever trainwreck they'll throw us next to steal the value of our money away.
jes stealing value away is a big issue with spineless EU plutocrats.
