In reply to the discussion: STOCK MARKET WATCH -- Wednesday, 4 April 2012 [View all]Tansy_Gold
(17,857 posts)14. The legality is what they make of it.
if they own the courts, who cares how clouded a title is? Who's going to be able to fight it? And if the laws are changed to protect the banksters, to uncloud all those clouded titles, it won't make any difference.
My point is, this was the intention -- ownership of real estate has always been the key to developing a healthy middle class, and to destroy the middle class the aristos must destroy the ability of working people to own and bequeath title to land. If the aristos are collecting the rents, they can keep the peasants from having the wherewithal to file suit.
