Have you been able to spot the contradictions in our society? You know the one, where corporate America leads you down two distinctive opposite tracks simultaneously? And the signals are so mixed that the average person cannot make the distinction because of other distractions along the way. 

 Our society is literally made up of contradictions and each player in the game have their own agenda. Somehow they manage to bring it all together and despite all odds, they make it work. So what exactly am I talking about? Let's take 3 corporations, for example, and I will show you how they have their own agenda but manage to collaborate an illusion that most of America falls victim to. Let's take an educational institute, a prestigious company and a mega retailer for this example. The educational institute will sell you the dream of higher pay when you get the right education. But what is the right education? By who's standards? Who creates such trends? Well, actually, there are 2 players in this game: the educational institute and bankers, the one who will give you a loan that ties you down for a very long time.  In fact, you will notice that the banker is always behind every concept society tries to sell you:  Get an education... get a student loan. Live the American Dream and buy a house... get a mortgage loan. Show off your success with a luxury car... get a car loan. Enjoy the world, buy an RV... get an RV loan. Travel the world, get a time share... get a loan for that, too. Live in luxury, not enough liquidity in your assets?  get a credit card or personal loan. Want more? get an equity line of credit on your home's equity. The opportunities to make you spend are phenomenal.  So back to the educational institute. They sell you the idea of obtaining a degree to make more money. So you get a loan, go to school, get a degree, and then hope, that it pays off. It is a gamble. I have known people with degrees that do not match what they do in real life simply because the illusion that was sold to them was quite different. But for some, it works quite well. Those who made that concept work may land a great job at a prestigious company... the one everyone wishes they can work for. So they land a great position with great pay. But they still have a student loan to pay off.  What do most people do? Create more debt. They want to show their success by buying a house and furnishing it. Getting a nice car. And enjoying life. But the pay is not enough to take care of all that and pay off the student loan. Where does the third corporation come in? That is the mega retailer who will spend enormous amounts of money in advertising and marketing to make you spend yours.  And there you have it... the contradiction of our society. Let me share something without even mentioning the company's name. There is a large mega retailer that claims to make your life better by saving you money. The concept is that you get more for your money so you can live better than you are living today. Already figured it out?
