The bottom line was that the gummint has to insure there will be a predictable labor pool in future years to continue using the population (as chattel) to secure future debt. The debt increases are based on how secure payback will be. No bank lends that kind of money with security.
If I remember correctly, the max the gummint can borrow, or increase the debt is based on the PROJECTED taxes from income of today's children when they enter the future job market. That figure is arrived at by averaging the income of the parents and adding for inflation, etc, how long the child will live and how healthy the child will be.
The CDC is a critical part of the process, tracking the reasons for trends in mortality/morbitity rates which the nanny folks will study and create subtle measures and programs to correct.
In my opinion, that is the number one reason why the gummint assumes authority over the children and how they are raised. Can't have those future slaves to the FED die off before they can pay their proper amount of the loan. Not the principle, which will never be amortized, but the interest, if we can even keep up with that.
Just something else to factor in.
correction --- 'with security' should be 'without security.'
I think it's even simpler (and more sinister) than that. Basically, the bureaucracy is populated with people who have bought into socialism/statism, lock, stock, and barrel, and they are quietly, slowly (albeit not as slowly lately) implementing the socialist infrastructure.
Meanwhile, anyone who points it out is "paranoid" and "conspiracy-minded" -- and therefore, dismissed out of hand.
I've given up. I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll be living out my days in a socialist workers utopia. My only consolation is that I'm getting real close to 60, in very poor health, so I won't have to endure decades of this orwellian shit.
