The dollar, pound, euro, peso, yen or whichever fiat, unbacked currency is in your wallet or bank account is the very means by which we are all enslaved.
It is a brilliant, hidden system of cunning, evil genius – to make the commodity most sought after the world over (because it is the most exchangeable for the things you want and need; the very thing that keeps the state getting more powerful, the corporations squeezing ever more small and independent businesses out of the market, the courts maintaining the unjust status quo and the media propagandising everyone using every trick in the book – all to keep the system in place and the rulers in power.
The best way to keep a population enslaved is to never let them see the bars of the cage and give them the illusion of freedom.
So you get a choice between red and blue political teams, different brands of the same poisonous crap, and different branded stores where the poisonous crap is sold, but that is not freedom; it’s a system developed over centuries so that its slaves become comfortable in their open air prison and even fight to maintain it, believing it’s the best system possible, or it wouldn’t exist and another would surely have taken its place by now.
Aren’t we just the most advanced civilisation there has ever been? I mean, look at our amazing buildings (and modern works of art)!
It Starts With Indoctrination At School
Do you never wonder why we are not taught about the most basic mechanisms of our economic life in school, if school is supposed to prepare us for the world ahead as an adult?
You might have been taught what a bank account was and how to open and use one and then they just implant the necessity of money in our minds and there it stays as we keep chasing the carrot and avoiding the stick for most of our working lives, without ever understanding where currency comes from and why it is so hard to accumulate enough to buy the things we need in life like a home, land, transport, etc.
Here is the shocking truth they will never tell you: the money we borrow when we go for a loan or a mortgage is not from someone else’s deposits, again, as most are taught, even at university level.
Fractional reserve banking would be bad enough, but what the actual mechanism is, as confirmed by the Bank of England’s ‘Money Creation in the Modern Economy’ report from 2014 and many other researchers before and since, is far worse than even starting with real labour-produced savings: the money is created when you sign for the loan.
If you didn’t know that before, it should indeed be shocking, but it’s not “conspiracy theory” or conjecture – The Bank of England says so.
