The depreciation of money

Since 1903 the same year the federal reserve was created the American dollar has religiously lost strength, turning the American dream into a pipe dream. Money for debt, debt for money the whole time money is guaranteed to lose strength so you'll need more, like a junkie needing a bigger fix to "get by". Let me iterate. What you could buy for a single dollar in 1903 is equivalent to $21 today.  They pass it off to the American people as the "cost of living" and we accept, thing naturally go up right? It's hard to break your mind from thinking like the cultural that has been built up around you and who's gear were put into motion before many of us were born. When I think of the cost of living I think of thing like, cell phones, Wi-Fi, cars, things we weren't always expected to have. When I think $7  value meals, $2 Sunday papers and gas averaging AT LEAST $3.50 on a great day, I think of the depreciation.

 Money ain't worth -ish and if you're trying to plan for your future, the amount of money your contemplating you'll need in the future is guaranteed not to be worth what you'll expecting when you get there (the future). The Dilution and manipulation of the dollar by the feds, banks, the U.S. Government and the suppression of workers wages is ensuring it an astonishing feat to work your way to the next plateau. Actually the exact opposite is happening everything is getting higher and the world is loosing faith in America and it's biggest export, the dollar! Making paper money your biggest export and correlating it's strength with oil sales is underhanded and irresponsible that combined with the 10 x's multiplication power banks have which gives them the right to create "money" out of thin air is ensuring a monetary crisis.

"thug" life

Over the past few years when there's a "unlawful" killing of a young black male, I've noticed a trend, the opposition gravity towards the "victims" character and the word "thug". The definition of a thug is a criminal or violent person. Trayvon Martin because he took pictures with gold teeth holding a gun and the fact he was walking with a hoodie made him a thug. Jordan Davis was labeled a thug because him and his friends were listening to loud rap music and Mike Brown because of his sheer size was labeled a thug. Being labeled a thug or criminal justifies the shooter's fear and the thugs don't have ANY rights, even if they are handcuffed and face down, it makes it easier to convince people that "he acted as if he had a gun", "he was charging me" and the worst excuse of all "I confused my 9mm for my tazer". The scary thing is my past. When I was that age I got caught stealing at Montgomery wards, I was trying to steal some phone cards for the stolen cell phone I had, at 17 I could have easily been labeled a thug by mainstream thinking steers you to believe what a thug is. At Montgomery Wards only reason I didn't run when the security guard came my way was I had too far to run! I wasn't a thug though I was a 17 yr old from the ghetto, Flint, MI,  living in the suburbs, Richfield, MN, trying to be a bad ass cause I knew it wasn't any REAL thugs around. Now, I'm a 33 year old successful Black American with a degree and all the student loan debt that comes along with it! I pay taxes, I have voted in every presidential election since 2000 and I didn't deserve to be shot over calling cards, did I? I'm not vouching for Mike's character because I didn't know him personally but I get upset with myself for getting upset with the lack of worth our cultural holds for the life of a young Black American male.  You never know what any of those young men could have been.
