Here is why the current debt-based usury-based Tyrannosaurus-Rex like money paradigm that is no longer working ..must change.
Imagine their is just one root problem in the world focusing on which will make you come to a possibility that addresses all the symptoms like corporate greed, overpopulation, mass poverty, inequality, trashing of human life, human-trafficking, pollution and destruction of habitat, small farmers and farmland, natural diversity, hunger, infant and children mortality, disease, global warming, war, terrorism….on and on.
Are you willing to devote one day or couple of days to really understand it…a view of a non-expert but a practical philosopher who happens to think deeply about life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Here is your chance…provided your mind is already not full with conventional wisdom, intellectual arguments or polarized dual thinking. It does require whole heart-brain approach and a love of life.
See Life precedes pursuit of liberty and happiness. Life is a profoundly rich, beautiful web of interconnecting relationships and energy at many levels… biological, ecological, physical, mental and spiritual all working in balance and harmony…our body naturally maintains it. In our mind we are polarized and divided. Yet we humans are spending all our lives in pursuit of money than pursuit of precious LIFE…running or progressing backwards it seems.
Now should we not take a moment or long to reflect on what money is, how it is issued, comes into circulation and allocated. See money is the life blood of society and if our blood/sweat/labor that is money contains cancer, would not all human institutions and human mind/brain affected by that? Without much adieu here is my view…may I have your deep attention please. Thanks.
I like very much what is happening at the community level in terms of sustainable communities Network, local living economies, Balle, Flow and many such networks of conscious living and business. However we need to focus on what is the problem with existing Debt-based Usury-based (charging compound interest on fiat money that has no inherent value) and centralized-commercial banking (money is issued as debt/loan to people, businesses and goverment out of thin air by central banks and banking system here and almost globally). It requires deep thinking how this money system is causing so many dysfunctions under name of free-market and democracy.
We do not have truely free democracy, here you see why and what has been kept secret from public. You must see this movie.
Here is an alternative whole perspective on money. Life is an indivisible whole and we cannot understand or serve the pursuit of Life, Liberty, happiness with reductionist, dualistic thinking in economics, politics and science. It requires deep thinking and understanding.
Our right to petition the government is our greatest right and grossly unfair systems like central banking can be easily changed and the power of issueing money can be peacefully restored to people. Wake up yourself and others. Thanks for your attention and action.
This issue is so gigantic and vast that your mind may spin for a while. Freedom cannot be kept with ignorance intact. can it??
You can have all the above community initiatives but how do you fight the power of global usurious corporate centralized banking (and increasing the debt-slavery of people) that is funding the dinosaur like prison-intelligenge-industrial-war-media-propaganda complex with your labor and sweat and children's future!
Energy goes where attention flows. Each of us need to wake up and awaken others. The conscious journey to freedom has begun. Are you observing it?

As I have detailed elsewhere - Colin Mason has suggested the following six Optimal Future History objectives in his chapter The Trouble with Money in - ” A Short History of the Future - surviving the 2030 Spike ” -
1. Get money diverted to developing world needs in large chunks - immediate reallocation of 10% of World Bank funds to micro-credit schemes would be a good start.
2. Start a subsidy fund to generate income producing businesses in the worst poverty 'hotspots', especially in regions where the sale of children to bonded labour and prostitution is demonstrably common.
3. Get rid of tax havens, currency trading, developing world debt, agricultural subsidies and any other legal but immoral devices which channel money unfairly from the poor to the rich. The world could be transformed by this one measure alone, which national governments, acting in consultation, could readily legislate for.
4. Replace GDP with quality of LIFE indices.
5. Audit of company accounts by a statutory authority, not private firms.
6. Senior executives salaries determined by vote of share-holders.
Thanks Miichael. I am talking about going to the root of the problem, which is how the monetary system was designed. The design itself is faulty and mathematically unsustainable.
The Bretton Woods Institutions or The World Bank group was created to establish the supremacy of one singular currency of World Trade, which is US dollar and US hegemony in the world. As the developing countries got increasingly dependant on dollar to buy oil and other industrial goods, it was easy for World bank to advance loan on conditions of structural adjustment to the detriment of those countries. Instead of helping development & ending poverty the World bank Shareholders (largest US) saddled these countries with mounting debt (which is an illusion to begin with). The value of dollar today cannot be maintained without the support of Japan, China and OPEC countries, which maintain substantial dollar reserve.
This gross inequality of world wealth/currency distribution precipitated the migration of low and highly skilled (brain-drain) undocumented and documented aliens from other countries to the US. Read some documents at the grassroot group 50 years is enough
and also 50 years of failure of world bank by Heritage foundation
There is also report in indymedia that Saddam actually wanted to breakaway from OPEC to start trading oil in Euro. And the newly appointed president of World Bank is Paul Wolfowitz, architect of Iraq war under PNAC. So you see the war and imperialism machinary is run by a monetary/banking system that depends on the collective agreement and trust of people…we the people. The issue of money should be restored to people from central banking system operated comercial banks everywhere, begining here in USA. Money's definition itself needs to change.
