I've been aware of this information for awhile, but it is quite delicate to discuss in conversation. I know that many Steemians will find this fascinating (if they haven't been made aware of this before), because this deals with ownership in the same way that cryptocurrency relates to the fiat monetary system (current banking establishment).
In short, your identity was created as a legal object when you were born.
It has the same name as you do, it was born on the same day at the same time and in the same place, and it is who you represent while in court. In essence, your being (or your spirit, soul, etc.) was monetized and created as a security certificate when you were born, even with its own CUSIP number (if you don't know that, it's how stocks are categorized). Our parents were the ones who declared this and transferred this document to a corporation (Registry Office) as collateral. For what? For debt. To pay the debts of a "country" for loans and interest it owes. To a private bank.
This British guy does an amazing presentation on it, and this cartoon compilation tells it frankly.
