Throughout the time civilizations started coming about, religion and politics joined hands and all economies became divided in two major zones of Have’s and Have-not’ s. There was clear grey scales in between who were there called have-some’s one looking for support and means to reach higher scale of hierarchy of Have’s. The whole economy then was to show a pleasing superfluous gesture to those who were have-some’s and throw some freebies to the Have-not’s.
These were artistically and beautifully done in conjunction with the religious leaders. The core was propaganda that for washing off sins give to Have-not’s. This giving made them purer to attain heaven or salvation. Have-not’s always remained Have-not’s while the rich and powerful flourished. The same policy is still being followed by all governments. The only difference is instead of huge wars to conquer more places now government utilises the economical, financial and technological tools to make sure the elite category of Have’ s remain a dream category for the masses while suprafluous tidbits are given to have-some’s while freebies are thrown at poor. Even now economies talk about the billionaires and millionaires as a benchmark for growth of a country. But I still have to find a economy that says we don’t have poor. If such a thing happens then surely you can see no rich or growing rich or novo rich. Rich are there due a tie up of men in political, judicial, administrative controls with religious leaders. Break the nexus and you will find the whole economy system will get a new perspective a more humane perspective.
