I know I'm more likely than not, overreacting. But I still feel this way after my latest rabbit hole. It's nothing new to older people apparently since I actually found a few compilation articles on the topic, but the thought is still nagging at the back of my mind when I think about having a conversation IRL about it, or making a post on here about it.
Does anyone else get this way about stuff when they go down research rabbit holes?
Vanguard?
Nope. I suppose at this point I might as well. The jokes here have helped me lessen my anxiety over it. Heh thanks to all of you for that.
Basically there's a company called DTCC. It and one of it's Subsidiaries, Cede and Co. Own literally every security in the US, and have been gradually expanding their holding through various other subsidiaries into international markets outside of closed markets like China.
Basically, when you "buy" a stock, bond, etc. Even real estate titles according to some people, you're actually buying what's called "beneficiary rights" from DTCC and Cede and co. Meaning we literally own nothing. And my first immediate thought upon discovering this, and the reason behind my terrified state.
We're already living in the great reset. If all of that's true, we own nothing, and we've been happy about it for A LONG time.
That is close to the bone. No wonder you feel like Neo.
Yeah, like I said, it's less a "scary" type of terrified, and more a Lovecraftian "Everything is a lie and nothing matters" type of terrified.
well.... we could make them happy...for being alive ....and also make them own nothing ...you know, plain old french revolution style on a global scale,minus bolsheviks
The last guy to mention the DTCC went utterly insane.
But before he did, he'd scream about Bernie Madoff, and the Organic Act of 1871, and the Logan Act, and Bretton Woods agreement, and the Maternity Act...
