The restuctiring of the financial system is the true end game. Good guys and bad guys walk the same path until the showdown. Then we have freedom or slavery
Just imagine how rich everyone would be if this corrupted and broken financial system were fixed or restructured. It's late here, almost 3am so I'm not going to try to remember everything off the top of my head but the value of the dollar should be many times higher than it currently is and the value of a lot of property is higher than it should be.
Maybe I'm wrong but wouldn't that essentially mean things being much cheaper again and the dollar being worth more which would significantly increase purchasing power of an individual?
I sometimes look at houses and land for fun. I've seen small plots of land for 5 figures, no idea if it's arable or not. I'm talking one acre for like $12,000. Seems insanely inflated to me.
I remember when 1 acre was commonly under $1,000. The problem with buying land is what you want to use the land for. If you want to put a home there then you have to have a house built or a trailer put there, both of which are major expenses. Then the septic, water, power pole, etc has to be done and septic and water alone can cost $20,000 on top of whatever the cost is for the home.
It's difficult for a normal person to get multiple large loans to cover those different expenses which is why people typically go after a home with everything already there. If you can afford it, you can make land arable though but it would involve a lot of work and possibly more money than it's worth. You can have several feet of soil and dirt/clay removed and replaced with top soil that would be arable. The problem would be the cost because top soil takes up to 5 years to create.
