Bernie gets props alright for being for the individual, but neither he nor the rest of progressives get to the core of the core problem which identified will enable us to easily democratize and resolve our economic problems. To get there you have to awaken to three basic realities:

1) unfortunately, all new money is currently created only as debt, even government money creation,

2) the tool used to create money is accounting, specifically, the accounting operation of equal debits and credits that sum to zero and

3) virtually all of “free” market theoretics is a complete misnomer and delusion because it has mistaken chaos for freedom. The truth is human/ethical freedom exists only within known and enforceable barriers so if you don’t create and enforce such barriers you’re advocating chaos NOT FREEDOM. Its why you can’t walk into a theater and yell Fire!, and its why Finance is able to pull the wool over everyone’s eyes and enforce their monopoly monetary paradigm of Debt Only.
