Since we can all attest to the fact that our financial banking economic system is bust and busted, we should probably look at ways to repair and cure it. And we don’t want to wait for the system to repair itself from the inside with the aid and abetment of its political stooges, revolving door and otherwise, because that will only lead to everyone else paying through the nose for a system they didn’t break to begin with. If we don’t seize control over this ourselves, it will never be cured, and the guys that went for broke and succeeded will make out like bandits and disappear like thieves into the night, leaving us with enough damage to last for multiple and miserable generations.
That last bit may not be evident to you, because the spin cycle runs at full force and speed, but what you think is the financial system is more volatile and vulnerable than probably ever before, based as it is on central bank handouts exclusively, and can’t take much if any sudden swings. I got three first points together that I think we need to execute, and one is still kind of optional, but there are many more, so let’s have suggestions. Abandoning the use of money altogether is not one I consider to be serious, or one world governments or currencies or debt jubilees.
