20. Capitalism is a casino

If you play by the house rules, you get screwed.

Work all your life, retire, stay poor. The financial and political elite play games with our money, and make us shoulder the burden when it all goes to shit. And we accept it because we are told it's a democracy, and that we can hold the government accountable, when it's really a corrupt plutocracy and people have little to no say about how it's actually run.
