In the 50s there was a booming economy. Everyone could
afford a house, car, and many other convenient household items. It’s what I
would state as the last real economy. It’s an economy in which the markets were
unpredictable, risky, and highly competitive. Due to results of a true and
unregulated economy, people had the financial flexibility to do what they want;
including saving enough or having the resources to start their own business. In
the 1960s and 1970s, the government has increased regulation and influence in
the economy. Banks became more involved and the stock market began to dominate many
markets. Today, political and foreign political involvement is involved in not
only at the local level but on a global level. Often markets are stacked with unnecessary
regulations that benefit larger companies and political agendas then allowing
for competition and real and true markets. The result of that is a decline in competition,
an increase in companies that are old and dominating the market, and an overall
dependency in large corporation for jobs and economic growth. People depend on
large dinosaur despite providing mostly service job that mostly make a maximum
of $30,000 annually. Due to political affiliation of businesses and banks, a
culture of corruption becoming very much believable as many businesses lobby
paying off their political constituents to maintain leadership and profitability
in their markets. The corruption in government seemingly contains much more
variables as it gets involved with foreign and global political agendas, influences
involving foreign affairs, and perhaps even some sort of dark irrational political
agenda involving occult agendas motivated by using trust and secrecy to obtain
power and resources. Because of all the variables influencing politics and its
ties with business and the stock markets, the overall results of these variables
is a high cost of living; a strangled economy; a tiring working situation where
people don’t want to retire or can’t afford to retire; people don’t want to
work do to high demanding job-expectations and suffocating work policies, also
perhaps do to such low wages; and people with degrees finding it difficult to
make a living with competition in their fields, even though their fields may
involve a demanding work condition to squeeze every worth from labor
productivity. The result is a demanding and non-financially flexible economic environment
where people work to live and not live to work. This demanding economic environment
is called the Slave Economy or Hostage Economy. It’s a term I made up to create
an awareness of what an economy used to be and comparing it to how it is today
with its comparable circumstances. The obvious future of such progression in
this direction is increased poverty and a growing lack of opportunities for those
who can’t succeed beyond a certain level of mental expectation. In the future,
there is the idea to replace people with robots as an efficient and cost
effective way of automation. Scientists that I’ve met and talked to state this
is evolution surpassing its previous form to improve. I feel it’s a well-planned
agenda in which the ideology to have a body rule over instead of allowing a
body to govern itself freely. It’s an agenda to favor those who have irrational
beliefs of power who believe fulfilling an illusionary irrational agenda will
lead them to some sort of higher being. Moreover, I believe the solution to
obtaining a free and real economy is deregulation of unnecessary regulations;
split large dinosaur companies into smaller companies and free-up competition; incentivize
banks to offer more involvement with small businesses, otherwise provide start-up
funding for banks at the local state and city level; incentivize more small businesses, especially
technology businesses with grants through tax-funding and tax-reduction; reform
education to support updated methods, curriculums, and training for our current
world and markets; somehow decrease the cost of living to where people can
sustain a comfortable living which will provide them with more flexibility and ability
to get ahead financially; support the growth of farms with incentives or tax breaks to purchase equipment for the
purpose to increase production to make cost of food resources more cheaper. Perhaps
budgeting later to make cost of minerals and natural resources cheaper by also
providing funding for better equipment for miners for the purpose of increase natural
resource and mineral production. I also believe it could be a good idea to negotiate
and make deals with millionaires and billionaires, perhaps using incentives or temporary
tax reductions could also help fund and increase productivity and overall the country’s
wealth. I personally would also like to
experiment to relax more of the country’s work ethic to allow more flexibility
for individuals, perhaps such as making
the average eight hour work week into six or seven hours a day. I believe a
happy society is a productive society. Concluding this article, I have
explained what a slave economy is and what I would do to fix it.
