We need a different system. Those in power "make those decisions because they are corrupt and evil"; they are interested in making money for themselves or for their friends and relatives. Most schmoes off the street are not making all the money that is coming into the US from the sale of all those weapons of war. I really appreciate your second to last paragraph. This is not about Jews. It is about the State of Israel. BTW, some real estate agents from Israel and the US were here in Montreal offering to sell real estate from the West Bank.....in a synagogue. Many Jews were very vocal and distraught about their synagogue being used to sell illegal real estate to Canadians.

The money is printed and goes more or less directly to arms manufacturers. No domestic goods or services are produced to spend it on. The result is price increases and devaluation of the dollar. https://science1arts2and3politics.substack.com/p/why-the-usa-has-inflation Wealth does not increase, it is redistributed.

Susan T, I'd like you to meet Gaddafi via his Green Book. I find he has some highly interesting ideas. http://openanthropology.org/libya/gaddafi-green-book.pdf
