In feudal Europe, the king owned everything, and the land was supervised by barons and earls, and the serfs that worked the land, were "allowed" to keep about half of what they earned. The other half went to the rulers. Now we all know that this was nothing more than a form of slavery, right?
So take a look at your paycheck. After all the deductions, what have you got left? About half, right?
So what makes you different than the slaves of feudal Europe?
Only one thing. The slaves of feudal Europe knew they were slaves. That's why they were so willing to risk it all for a chance in the new world.
A lot of Americans will become homeless slaves this year when the banks foreclose and take their homes. The banks are the kings, and our elected officials are the new barons and earls.
What will we be willing to risk for a chance to re-make a new world?
America. The land of the free and the home of the slave.
