I liken the world’s situation to a glass gymnasium containing a mass of prisoners. The prisoners see that all the doors are open and can escape at anytime. The wardens are few in number and the wardens deceive the prisoners into thinking that there is a firing squad just outside the glass gymnasium. The prisoners believe this lie and willingly stay in this gymnasium, only depending on the wardens (whom are few in number) for their food source, security, and everything else.
The prisoners, lacking any kind of awareness or reason, think that the wardens are looking for their own best interests. If they did have any kind of reason whatsoever, they can see for themselves that there was no firing squad outside the glass gymnasium, and fruit trees were planted around the gymnasium to keep them fed if they decide to get out.
The wardens had also made it difficult to get out of this gymnasium by deceiving other inmates and cutting deals with them. The wardens rewarded inmates who displayed what they called “good behavior”, by having one inmate “rat” on another, and making these inmates, “model inmates” within the gymnasium. The wardens found more and more ways to divide and conquer their subjects through their petty belief systems, clothing, language, and the inmate’s own jealousy for one another etc. As long as they were divided, they never can unite against them. They had them right where they wanted to, right within their heads.
The wardens made sure that the inmates were so spoiled that they would never leave the gymnasium. They made sure that they were fed and were given “jobs” that never really left them with any valuable skill. If they had any valuable skills, it might be used against the wardens.
The truth is that there is “no government”. There is no “law”. The only thing that keeps the “government” alive is people that believe in it. It’s not the “government” that comes after you when someone decides not to fork over their funds in the form of “taxes”, but individuals.
There is no such thing as “economy” either. It is an illusion, just as much as our legal system is. We believe so whole-heartedly in these abstract concepts and enforce them. Meanwhile, we do not know that they are designed to exploit us.
The wardens were just as much humans as the inmates were. Any distinction between the inmate and the warden was purely artificial. It would be no different if it were a bunch of bullies bossing the other students around, telling them to fork over their “lunch money” and calling it “taxes”, or using religion and calling it a “tithe”.
Some of the inmates decided to have a revolution within the open door glass gymnasium. They decided to get rid of the former wardens. They thought in terms of slave-master relationships and instituted wardens/bullies/etc. that were even worse than the previous. The new “wardens”, once they receieved their “power”, wanted to keep it at all costs. They had learned the mistakes of their former predecessors and started creating “laws” to keep people from leaving the open door glass gymnasium.
Whenever people had tried to leave, many were spewing the same propaganda that the wardens had told them. The wardens told them that they had everything that they have here, that they would be given important “jobs”, and that what he was doing was right. All the prisoners knew in their lives was this “system” and they were truly afraid of actually leaving it because they did not know the paradise that was outside of it.
What ended up happening was that very few people wanted to leave. Very few people had the awareness to actually see through a glass, clearly. Those that actually saw it for what it was, laughed, because it was their own mind that actually kept them from attaining freedom. They had thought that freedom was something that could be attained, and that they were slaves needing to attain this “freedom” from their masters. They were free all along, and they did not need “permission” to ask their “wardens” to leave the open door glass gymnasium.
Those that were enlightened enough to see this knew that the wardens anticipated violence and chaos and used this as a way to tighten up security within the open door glass gymnasium. They used this as a fulcrum to institute a “lock down” within the gymnasium. The wardens also anticipated abandonment within the gymnasium, but there was nothing that could be done against that if everyone decided to opt out of their “jobs”. The whole system that warden devised would come careening down to the ground.
It was not likely that everyone would go on strike because the warden had drugged their food and water supplies, continually lied to everyone (having that reinforced by having other inmates spread lies to other inmates), was basically thought of as a good man because he also gave them an “education” (but they could not use this “education” they received to be self-sufficient, everyone was OVERLY-specialized, and this inter-dependence kept people from leaving), and changed his public image to develop a rapport between him and his own subjects by telling them he was once a prisoner himself.
We have a situation that is very similar to this, going on our planet today.

If someone wants to copy this, feel free to. I definitely feel that if people can get the wool taken from their eyes by simply realizing what is going on, then I see I have done my job.
