Why do countries borrow money from a hand full of people who are they?

Countries have oil , gold , resoursces , but we bowwow off those people...something is wrong ...we are sleeves to them they control us.
Every down turn in the economy is caused by them to equire more from us look at the past. everytime they get more....why don't they tax stock market activity....because it's a playground for the rich money that is not needed to live.
Strange don't you think?
tax it ...we get taxed on everything that we need to survive.
