From an Opeth fan.. interesting. Such a fan that your name and avatar are Opeth. Odd for them to be your favorite band when you live such a well rounded life.. just sayin'.

You live.
You get indebted to corporations.
You pay said corporations off until you die.
You never stop producing for them and paying them.
This is nonnegotiable and forced.
Just like a slave. No wait. A rent-a-slave.
Everything you do goes through one of their credit systems.
Child support. Food stamps. Debit. Credit cards. EFS. EPPI. Workers comp. Unemployment. SSI. SSDI. Checking. Loans. Morgages. Insurance. business credit.
It all goes through them.edit on 28-2-2013 by John_Rodger_Cornman because: (no reason given)edit on 28-2-2013 by John_Rodger_Cornman because: (no reason given)

Awesome.
Well I stopped on the way home from work and purchased a couple of new shirts to wear to the office. Then I got home and ate dinner and watched a recording of a show . Made sure the family pets were fed and happy. After that I watched some hockey highlights, played some Fruit Ninja(damn addictive games) now I am paying the bills I owe and listening to the music I want. I should probably get to bad soon though because I have a lot to do at work tomorrow.
The last thing i will think when I close my eyes is, "yup.it sucks to be a slave to the man after all the hard work I have put in over the course of my career"
Wait I know.."at some point in the future this will all collapse" and I am sure if\when it does the people that insist on making the debt slave type posts will be beyond happy that their posts were proven prophetic. Hopefully it doesn't because you know..Living a balanced, happy, successful (in whatever way matters to you) financially responsible life really isn't that bad.

Whatever your content with.
People should have the choice to live their lives in the way they want without impedance or servitude from a corporate entity.
Its like Aldous Huxley's seminar about "the love of servitude". I don't love,desire nor seek servitude to a corporate power structure. Is that wrong?

I've only got a couple of answers to this for the majority of citizens. They cannot think for themselves. They are scared out of their wits when it comes to the tptb and would rather get rammed in other ways than with a gun pointed at their heads.
