Classy. Why do we as a society collectively agree to give away part of our earned income to do this?

Because we as citizens taxes are not needed to fund anything. Our taxes only exist to give the USA value, the real driver of the economy and what is actually used for government spending is credit.

Think of it when you pay taxes, it's not your money going to roads or whatever. It's the government taking your money and going 'oh ain't that cute, he thinks he's contributing!' and then just burning the money because it doesn't matter.

Taxes are used to pay the federal reserve for lending you money

Why? Because they’re a cartel.

Not nearly enough tax money to pay for much. Peanuts. And almost all of that money goes from the Fed right to the US treasury also.

you left out fractional reserve lending. You know the part where the bank makes money by lending out your hard earned money. While paying you less than 2% interest. Fucking SCAM

>> No.23219663

>>23219587

Fractional reserve lending is when the bank does't lend out your money, you dip-shit. Banks create money out of this air in the form of credit, they don't lend out their actual money you deposit.

They push a button, and pow, money out of air for them and a debt for someone else.

We love banks. They let us buy shiny things like expensive phones, houses that you pay for over the course of 30 years, car payments that cost a third of your monthly income. Boats and jetskis, RVs and ATVs. You could literally not purchase any of these things before high interest rate loans existed. Say “Thank you, Sheckelberg!”

Annoying how people on /biz/ of all boards have no clue how banking, the economy, and finance works.

Kill yourself homo. I buy assets precisely because it's become so obvious to everyone. And millions of poorfags are going to be looking for blood from the banks before the next 3 decades are through.

yes they are when the bank can print money faster than I can save.

That means you saving will never make it to buy X appreciating asset

Yes and no. They will be protesting outside wall street and people yelling at politicians. But here is the thing, they will be demanding higher taxes on wealthy people and more financial regulation. But think, what would happen if they just scrapped the finantial institution wholesale, and no Joe and Jane sixpack want to buy a house and nobody will lend them any money? Your fooling yourself if you think they will go "I guess I'll just save up money", no, they will just rent and complain to the government to bring the debt system back. Because like how people feel entitled to the factory jobs that have existed for them for so long, they also feel entitled to loans if they want them.

So it's not the banks they will come after, because the idea of debt/credit systems is so ingrained that they will reject any notion of discarding it, it's higher taxes on upper class people and regulations they will demand. Think about it, would YOU be happy if the government one day said 'no more savings accounts because debt is bad, guys'?
