Will the Greek people react to the terror of austerity imposed by the world rentier class (who seek greater profits on IMF, World Bank and EU, especially German, bank loans) by launching an attack on the new World Trade Center? There are precedents for such rebellions against the debt slavers who own the world. Yes, it would be largely a symbolic act with no real consequences for the ruling elite parasites. Sadly, the minions, who actually work in the building and most of whom have only a small material superiority to the Greek general population, would suffer.

More sadly, there is no way to get to our real owners. So we must accept our fate of debt bondage in perpetuity. Get used to it. You may address any misgivings by conditioning your thought. Simply repeat the mantra, "Our masters deserve to extract rents and profits from we who work for them to make the goods and services they sell to us." Whenever you feel resentment about the human condition, repeat the reinforcement three times.

Another possibility: A neo "Modest Proposal" may help to aleviate suffering. Instead of raising your children to be the next generation in debt bondage, slaughter them and sell their carcasses to feed your masters. You can reduce expenses and make a little extra to satisfy your debt to your betters.

see the original: "A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People From Being a Burthen to Their Parents or Country, and for Making Them Beneficial to the Publick" - published anonymously by Jonathan Swift in 1729

Our government, like us, is forced into debt because those who lend don't pay enough wages or taxes to allow us or the 'gummit' to live within our means. We have no choice in this. The terms are dictated by the ruling elite parasites who own almost everthing, hold the mortgages on the rest and have all the money that we must borrow to live.

and those that have money determine what work the people will be paid to do

in the US , that's building bombs

and that pay will remain low enough to ensure the need to take on more debt, like the taxes they pay will force our government to borrow.

our government chooses to borrow by choosing to run off a private banking system

interest alone creates a money system based on debt

I won't follow you down your trippy rabbit hole.

money is the grease that makes exchange of goods and services negotiable

land owners collect rent so have money to determine what services they will trade for
