Debt Slavery – Why It Destroyed Rome, Why It Will Destroy Us Unless It’s Stopped Here's some interesting weekend reading about Debt Slavery and our place in its long history. ~ Ilene Debt Slavery – Why It Destroyed Rome, Why It Will Destroy Us Unless It’s Stopped Courtesy of MICHAEL HUDSON Published at CounterPunch Aristotle, The Louvre - Wikicommons Eric Gaba (Sting) Book V of Aristotle’s Politics describes the eternal transition of oligarchies making themselves into hereditary aristocracies – which end up being overthrown by tyrants or develop internal rivalries as some families decide to “take the multitude into their camp” and usher in democracy, within which an oligarchy emerges once again, followed by aristocracy, democracy, and so on throughout history.
