Social Conditioning in the Silent Depression

The “matrix-economy” reveals itself as researchers show how bad the economy actually is when compared to the Great Depression. In the modern age, the free market, has become the fascist market.

The health status of the modern world economy is a lie. This is a bold statement to make, yet with inflation steadily rising and workers being punished by mandates, it seems that the impoverishment of the working class is worse than it has ever been. Researchers are discovering that we are in a covert form of extreme poverty they are now calling “the silent depression.”

How can this be? The answer is surprising, yet it involves the conditioning of the public mind and the complete control of the economic system worldwide. You, the reader, have been lied to your entire life by the corporate media and false information about how the fascistic un-free market operates and until now, because of the blatancy of the current financial situation, the economic truth has been well hidden.

On paper, using twisted statistics and skewed financial records, the world economy appears somewhat healthy. Bidenomics is reigning supreme and apparently will be used to try to re-elect the President. The Biden administration claims that it is building an economy from the middle up instead of from the top down. In the mean time, Blackrock, Vanguard, and State Street own a significant proportion of the S&P 500, which equates to a sizable portion of the western economy. They own everything. Currently, these affiliated mega-corporations are buying land in Ukraine to “rebuild” communities as a way to make themselves seem charitable, while they overbid American families who only dream is to own a home. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. predicts that by 2030 these corporate conglomerates could own 60% of single-family homes in America.

The stock market and the share prices tell a fictitious tale of economic growth and prosperity that only a mother could love. Analogously, the steady decline of the dollar is like the foundation in your house crumbling over time as the cracks in your walls remind you that the problem has to be fixed or suffer the consequences. The health of a debt-based fiat currency being the reminder that the fairy-tale played out in the stock market is just that, a fairy tale.

Financial laws have been bent to the will of the shareholders to such an extent, that it is no longer a credible indicator of financial health. Stock buy backs were once illegal, now they are more than willfully accepted. In this economy your company could be doing horrible, but if your stock prices are good, all is well according to the overpaid financiers and extravagant creditors. The façade must be kept in lockstep with the charade known as Wall Street where fake wealth is made on social media and unreal earnings are fudged by false numbers.

If it were not for big-bank bailouts funded by tax payers, advancements in digital technology, and the complete control of the financial system by an oligarchic elite the world economy would have collapsed long ago. Fascistic zombie corporations have been held up by domineering central banks parented by the Federal Reserve creating a stagnant real-world economy that is ultimately held together by the “Elmer’s glue” of the tax payer.

The world economy is kept from imminent destruction by the fact that people do not realize how poor they are compared to the top 1% wealthiest people on the planet. The numbers almost don’t make sense as we owe debt to an aristocratic oligarchy that’s only goal is to impoverish us. China is selling American debt while their economy gets wiped out by bad decisions with a real-estate conglomerate named Evergrande. Yet who do we owe our national debt to? Do we owe it to the Chinese or the banking elite that already own the market anyway?

The problem is that Zombie-Corporations can no longer hold their own weight. For example, companies like the Chinese government-owned Evergrande are failing at epic proportions and can no longer fund their own weight. The reality and the biggest problem is that Neo-Corporatism I.E. Technocratic Fascism is alive and well in the western world, and nobody wants to accept it. Now we have to hold up a Zombie-Economy in this new form of corporate controlled dystopia.

The simple truth that we are living through financial times worse than the great depression is undeniable to the average worker. It was recently put into the social media spotlight that, what is being called “the silent depression” is beyond noticeable with rising prices and stagnate wages.

Users on Twitter and YouTube are revealing very basic research and very basic math that involves percentages of income and living expenses compared to the worst example of economic prosperity in American history. The mathematical ratios were examined and analyzed, and they are way off the mark for the state of modern prosperity. Researchers found that we are living in economic times exponentially worse than the great depression.

For instance, in 1930, based on averages, the average yearly salary was $1300, a car was $600, rent was $18 a month, and a residential property was around $3900. This does not seem like a lot of money, but when long term inflationary value is adjusted for modernity, the details become crystal clear. The living expenses reasonably match the average wages earned for the average American.

Today, in 2023, the average yearly income is $56K, a car is $48K, rent is $2,000 a month, and a descent piece of property is $470K on average. Obviously you don’t have to be a math whiz to realize that the standard of living has drastically and unreasonably changed since the Great Depression. Why has nobody noticed until now? In reality many people have, but for the people who have not there is obviously a natural or purposeful effort by corporate media to socially condition the public into believing they are progressively prosperous. We the people are socially conditioned to accept corporations and governments working together to drive average workers into unimaginable poverty.

In the Great Depression the cost of a house was 3 times the average salary, today it is over 8 times the average salary. An average car, like a modern small hatchback, was 46% of the average yearly income for workers, today it is 85%; it has almost doubled since the great depression. People who are too poor to buy a home are paying 42% of their yearly income on rent, while in the Great Depression their great-grandparents were paying 16% of their income to own nothing.

The major difference between then and now, a difference that skeptics use to argue against “the silent depression,” is that during the Great Depression 1 in 4 people were unemployed. Skeptics arguing against the “silent depression” claim that times were worse during the early 20^th century because unemployment was way higher, closer to 25%.

This argument is flawed though because during the Great Depression the man of the household was the only designated provider, while today two incomes are needed to keep a household afloat. Both the man and the woman of the household have been designated necessary providers, as “the patriarchy” has been officially dismantled, but only on paper. This has lead to two taxable incomes per household, which is a perfect situation for a government that uses political causes like feminism to accrue funds for its most intimate desires. 

Other huge differences include the state of the debt market and extravagant government spending which did not exist during the early 1930’s. National debt and personal debt I.E. credit cards, did not affect the economy on the level of magnitude that it does today. Currently, the American Government is almost $33 Trillion dollars in debt, yet prior to the pandemic the debt was $10 Trillion dollars less than it is today.

In 2019, the US debt was $22.7 trillion dollars. The government is spending the American worker into oblivion while the American taxpayer foots the bill with money it doesn’t have. It may be harsh to say this, but instead of American workers they should be called American suckers. American workers have to break the social conditioning and realize how oppressively poor we really are.

Realistically, the silent depression is the death of the American middle-class, and the ideological failure of the Democrat Party and the Neo-liberal class. Unfortunately this crazy train called the modern world economy, or what I call the fascistic un-free market, will end eventually, but before it does, we must realize that we are not to blame. The American people are not to blame, westerners are not to blame, Russia and China are not to blame; the blame needs to be put on an oppressive financial system and the fascistic tyrants in control. It is not our fault we live in poverty, and until we realize why we are in the financial condition we are in, we will never break the social conditioning of the silent depression.
