RE: A Brief History of Money!

in #money5 years ago (edited)

I always point beginning inquirers to "The American Dream" - in all my years of studying the monetary system, its roots and causalities I have not found a better more graphic overview that is at the same time thoroughly entertaining.

If money were backed that would be one thing. But the money that rules the world right now is basically a mechanism to bind and drain the majority of well-meaning people for something that was entirely artificially created and is hence totally unnecessary, ultimately robbing them of their life(time).

Like purposefully setting someone's house on fire every morning just so that the firemen can have "a job".

Here's the comic, enjoy <3

Thank you for this. I definitely will have a look in a few hours. It's beginning to make sense though. Especially since the early banks held on to people's Gold and have not returned it. Now they made fiat the standard without backing it with Gold. Meaning, fiat becomes the new value and they get to keep the gold in the end. As debts rise, they happily print more fiat to pay for those debts. It's just "like purposefully setting someone's house on fire every morning just so that the firemen can have "a job".

Oh I think you get it already!
Part of the issue that it all happens in secret. As much as I sometimes feel blockchain technology is the next chapter of that grand enslavement plan, at least it is conceivable that monetary tampering like the central banks of today do will be way more visible and hence way easier to rebel against.

It all comes down to the awareness of people and critical mass. The game has been going on for a long long loooong time.
