They Sold Us Out

Once upon a time in America, you could build something. 

You could work hard, save up, take a risk, and stake your claim in the land of opportunity. That was the real American Dream.

But today? That dream’s been hijacked.

Wall Street and Washington D.C. sold it off—piece by piece—while waving the flag and stuffing their pockets.

They tell us we still live in a free market. 

But what we have today isn’t capitalism. It’s cartel-ism—a rigged game where a handful of insiders make the rules, and the rest of us are just another resource to capitalize.

True free-market capitalism rewards value creation, innovation, and risk-taking. It says, “may the best product win.” 

What we’ve got now is a crony system where the winners build moats, lobby Congress, weaponize regulation, and crush competition before it can even crawl.

The titans of industry became titans of lobbying.

The entrepreneurs who built their empires in the open market slammed the gates shut behind them. They carved out monopolies, captured regulators, and made damn sure no one else could follow in their footsteps. 

It’s the classic “I’ve got mine” mentality, dressed up in legalese and financial engineering.

And while they were busy locking us out, they shipped our jobs overseas. 

Entire industries—steel, tech, manufacturing—offshored to countries with no labor laws and no loyalty to the American worker. In return, we got cheap crap at Walmart and a trade deficit the size of Everest.

They called it “globalization.” I call it betrayal.

This isn’t some accident. 

It was a strategic transfer of power. 

By gutting our industrial base and making us dependent on foreign supply chains, these so-called leaders made America vulnerable—economically and politically. 

That’s why we’re in trade wars now. That’s why we rely on our adversaries for basic goods. We didn’t lose our leverage. They sold it.

Wall Street made people feel rich on paper while hollowing out the real economy. 

They handed us stocks and told us we owned a piece of the future. But the truth is, we don’t own anything. Not really.

Ownership without control isn’t ownership—it’s theater.

They run the companies. They cast the votes. They pull the strings. 

Your little stock certificate? It’s a participation trophy. You cheer when it goes up, but you have no say in what it funds, who it hires, or how it behaves.

And now they’re pushing a world where you’ll own nothing and be happy.

They want you to rent everything—your home, your car, your software, even your identity. They’ll tell you it’s convenient. But really, it’s control. 

Life on a leash in the hands of corporate suits and unelected bureaucrats.

You think your 401(k) gives you independence?

Think again. That paper wealth is locked in a system they control. 

A system that can freeze your accounts, censor your speech, and drain your value through inflation and fees while smiling on CNBC.

And here’s the twist that should make your blood boil: they use the fruit of your own labor to fund the very systems that degrade your freedom, suppress your choices, and consolidate their power.

It’s a trap disguised as prosperity.

But here’s where the plot changes—because we’ve found a way to fund our future without them.

Decentralized digital currencies—crypto—aren’t just an investment. 

They’re a financial exit route. 

A funding mechanism that doesn’t ask permission from bankers, brokers, or bureaucrats. 

We cut the middlemen out and put the power to transact directly in your hands.

That alone is revolutionary.

Because when you can move value without going through the gatekeepers, you take a wrecking ball to the very foundations of their rigged economy.

And move one step closer to free market capitalism.

This isn’t about money. It’s about sovereignty.

It’s about opting out of a parasitic system that feeds on your productivity and sells it back to you at a markup. It’s about refusing to be farmed by the financial elite, and choosing instead to build, trade, and live on your own terms.

No more Fed-subsidized bailouts.

No more Wall Street skimming 2% off your future.

No more empty suits in D.C. deciding how free you get to be this year.

We’re done.

Call it what you want—revolution, rebellion, renaissance. But we’re not asking for permission anymore. We’re building outside the gates they locked behind them.

And this time, we’re not selling out.
