But language is how they lie to us and make it seem things are fair. In reality capitalism means all the trillions minted each year by our federal reserve flows to industries and not the people.

Look at it this way, if the federal reserve cutoff loans to banks who service the auto dealerships, the auto industry would collapse. The biggest industries would be severely hurt if not bankrupt without their connection to government and the federal reserve.

Why can't people get that for direct access to federal reserve minting to start their own business, pay for their education, or buy a home? They can't because people are the cattle that capitalists need to exploit.
