@alimcforever: In 1171, Venice changed forever. The assassination of a Doge opened the way for merchant dynasties to take control of government finance. This is the story of how taxes gave way to loans, how bonds were invented, and how the system shaped the modern world. #venice #History #financialhistory #italianhistory #medievalhistory

So they made it *seem* like they were doing the Government, & the People, a favour by giving them that money, but ultimately what they did was *indebt* the Government, & the People, to them *forever*.

Venetian history is amazing! And yes, families like Loredan, Contarini, Cornaro, Morosini were insanely rich – some of the richest in the world at that time. It’s crazy what a long-term impact they’ve had in finance.

all corruption will stop when people wake up to the same reality. left wing and right wing parties belong to the same bird put there to create an illusion that we have chosen. put by who? well this is the part where people react with cognitive dissonance but I will say it. there is only good and evil in this world. you can normally differentiate between them by the level of greed. 99% of people are good, 99% of people don't want wars, 99% people doesn't benefit from the suffering of others, 99% of people don't have the resources to convince people to fight against each other and 70% of the population have been purposely keep ignorant of reality 🥰🥰🥰🥰
