      tax chattle slavery

      I’m guessing the concept is that we are farmed as cattle because we consume and then the money we earn that pays for our food on shelter all gets funnelled upwards to billionaires and as an added bonus we pay taxes to pay for a government which serves the billionaires’ interests not ours.

      It is notable that we all talk about being part of national economies now whereas we used to talk about being a part of society.
