Just to clarify: the current financial system isn't corrupted (as in broken). It works as designed. And it was designed to suck the wealth out of ordinary people. It can't work forever, but it will be kept alive for as long as possible.
Central banks suck money out of whoever is using its currency. Those can be both countries and people.
Then again, countries are just groups of people. They may have a different legal status, but a country can do nothing without its people doing it. A country doesn't pay its debts. Their citizens do.
