  • Capitalism.

    Capitalism took root in the early American colonies through European mercantile practices, private land ownership, and the growth of family-owned farms and small businesses. By the 18th century, the transatlantic trade, including the slave-based plantation economy in the South and a diversified market economy in the North, fostered a system increasingly dependent on private profit. After independence, policies favoring property rights, limited government interference, and expanding markets reinforced a capitalist framework. By the mid-19th century, industrialization, the rise of factories, and expanding transportation networks fully cemented capitalism as the dominant American economic model. In my view, it thrived primarily because it aligned with the nation’s emphasis on individual opportunity and entrepreneurial initiative.

    Without regulation, it allowed the most selfish people to rise to the top. Most Americans can’t imagine that their leaders are so cruel. They think “everyone is just exaggerating when they say the wealthy elites don’t care about us. no one is so callous!” The truth is so much worse than they imagine. Our elites are monsters. They’re using tactics that would make Hitler blanch.

    Education is one of the social practices they have privatized. The elites don’t want us to be educated. They want us angry, stupid and powerless. So they’ve used propaganda and every tool at their disposal to turn our education system into a scam, a sad parody of an effective instruction method. It’s expensive garbage, and that’s exactly what the elites want.
