  History shows that control of the individual is achieved through the factors of production: labor, land, capital

  control through labor = slavery

  control through land = feudalism

  control through capital = the debt system

  Government is not necessary to control individuals through the factors of production. It is only necessary to own the factor of production.

  A study of history reveals multiple examples of this control. Are there any examples when this control of the individual through the factors of production has not existed?

  the alternatives to the individual are many, even in our fascist system.

  Add enough value that you are fairly paid for your labor, become invaluable to your employer, or become self employed.

  Own your own land, with limited leverage

  Generate more utility than you consume, save the surplus, and invest it prudently.

  Don’t let the system or the state be your excuse to fail.

  Win, don’t whine!
