It’s a complex issue. What it comes down to is that fiat currency itself is the problem. The super elites, 1%, etc all have Disney bucks that are backed by nothing.

I'm reminded of the initial "processing" scene in The Master between Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix.
Hoffman's character repeatedly asks questions to Phoenix's character, inducing a hypnotic state. Repetition can also be used as a form of mind control.
