General Discussion

If a people can be made to believe there are those who are subhuman and made to be subjugated and controlled for the benefit of those with the financial and socio-politcal power to do so, without anyone attempting to liberate them. Then those that accept it can be given some status without true power of their own and controlled.

Made to be comfortable, lulled into a sense of safety - in truth, the desire is to control everyone who is not within their group. This is not a conspiracy. In the 80 or so years between the Revolution and Civil War, the slave owning class conscripted any citizen white or black into fugitive recovery. The restoration of property to the owner. The allowance of slavery to exist in free areas if enslaved persons were transported into free states, thus pushing the boundaries of enslavement not to one region, but to anywhere someone wanted to unburden themselves with the same conditions of life we experience - having to strive to live. Having someone to deal with the menial tasks of life.

Wage Slavery was a form of slavery which continued following indentured servitude - for Europeans, and the racial, ethnic divisions amongst white people of Irish, Italian, Polish, Romanian (any Slavic country, for that matter who were the original enslaved of Europe and the steppes of Asia).

The modern era only came about to engender compliance - not change. Facilitating calm, but not evolution.
We have reached a generation so far from the truth of socio-economic stratification it was understood America was heading toward communism until F.D.R. created programs which did not disconnect the common person from the benefit of what was supposed to be the opportunity of America.

American opportunity was there if you could afford it, 100 years after the causes of every early 20th century conflict the conditions still exist because the system has not changed due to people not being uncomfortable enough to focus on what that system is doing to create the circumstances in which they live.

Change does not come when one is comfortable - change comes when what is uncomfortable becomes unbearable to the point it reaches critical mass - demonstrated multiple times over the last century.
