The corrupt system aims to starve people because people see that they want to free themselves from it. The best solution to regain control over people is still hungry, the dollar is flying and everything is rising in price. The first solution for not going hungry is to raise the minimum wage, especially for the public sector and in case there is an emergency or dollarization of private sector pensions.#dolyars
