The Money Trap – How the banks lure you into debt
also see ” Money as Debt ” video – In the US , banks are allowed to lend further 10 percent of the money they lend. Also , as the money lended is freshly created money on which they sometimes make comfortable interests , it will most probably come back into a bank account within the banking system , allowing the bank to lend even more money – as banks in the US have the right to lend 9 times more as the amount of money ( ones and zeros ) they have on their accounts.
Also , as there is interest on money created , to be able to pay off theinterest , ever greater amounts of money need to be created , and therefore lended from private banks , leading to a unlimited system of enslavery to the financial system. All banks need to do to take over on the whole economy , is to stop to process of new money creation through new lending of money , to trigger a endless domino fall of bankrupcies , which then fall into the control of the banks. But even when it is not so , more and more of the population ends up into debts it can not repay , and only the biggest and most powerful corporations and those that have the most money and can use this money to get even more money , can survive. The rest will eventually sink into debt , end up being enslaved into the system , untill , eventually , they loose everything but their skills , and eventually end up into wage slavery , if there is still a job for them : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wage_slavery
It is time to develop new economics , new priorities for our society !

Certainly the people may feel they are in charge, but are they really? The Century of the Self tells the untold and sometimes controversial story of the growth of the mass-consumer society in Britain and the United States. How was the all-consuming self created, by whom, and in whose interests?
