Because they are serfdom. Hand over a chunk of your labour or you can't play. Get past this gate and next I'll introduce you to the land usurers. It amazes me on this page the number of people who are wrestling with various ideas whilst labouring under the axiom that money creation mirrors expended effort. That's exactly how you don't get rich. Here's a recipe for getting rich: 1. get a privileged position of money creation 2. get the state to underwrite your losses 3. issue as much of it as you can 4. do not spend money on doing actual shit if you can help it
