Freedom, Liberty and Human Rights

.
So, what is freedom and when are you free?

Freedom is ownership of your life, your time and your property.


"The three great rights are so bound together as to be essentially one right. To give a man his life, but deny him his liberty, is to take from him all that makes his life worth living. To give him his liberty, but take from him the property which is the fruit and badge of his liberty, is to still leave him a slave."
- George Sutherland, Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, 1921.

.
If you do not own your money (we don't, the banks own it, you can just borrow it - don't forget to give it back, now...) and you must work for a "promise to pay" (debt money) instead of payment (wealth money), and you (We The People) have to give back all of the money that you earn (in debt payment because all money is created as a loan to someone), plus a little bit more (interest and taxes), what is that called? 
.
In other words, What is it when you do all of the work and someone else gets all of the benefit?
.
.
Who needs a messy plantation when they can loan you eletronic digits so that you can buy a mortgage that you'll pay for three times over. You may work even harder to "maintain good credit" than if you were on the plantation! 
It's called involuntary servitude.
It's slavery, without the chains.

OK - then that means it's illegal - by definition.
