Beginner insights, want your mind blown? Read into the creature from Jekyll island and the creation of the Federal reserve and the creation of the Bretton Woods standard and how it go abolished. This goes a lot deeper than "fees". Even inflation is a form of robbery that was engineered by the original bankers who continue to tax everyone to this day. Conspiracy? Absolutely not. Provable. The facts are out there. Warning: you may get upset at what you learn.

You do not even need to read any of these. Just know that government is bunch of people. If you could realize that, then you will start to see government as not this big thing that is chugging along, but just bunch of people who want the best for themselves.

If you can see that, then yeah you are going to do fine. Most people do not see that, and they make mistake in trusting the government. Whatever they do, they do it to benefit themselves. This starts with the president (whatever your nation is, not just one nation) and goes all the way down to smallest power someone can get.

I have once seen a cleaning crew, literally a garbage truck, that tried to use their power, to make more money, by putting less effort and sort of boycott work or whatever, they were at strike but kept working, just bare minimum, and demanded more pay for more work and rejected all that is beyond their written contract. So all wants best for themselves, and would leave you in trash, if it means better pay for themselves.

That's a very true point as well - and a common misconception. People think that the government is some big bad evil institution that is out to get the little guy, though the reality is that it's just a building full of (mostly) idiots and paper pushers who are peddling the cogs in the externally influenced machine.
