The basic lack of understanding of the dynamics of the math of money as debt will not play out as these 'leaders' think.
The thing is that the 'complexity' of today's economies is driven by the same instability that the present model cannot shed. There is no real case to be made that "modern" society should subject itself to this Ancient Mathematical Illiteracy and all its ramifications! Too many hold a similar mythical vision about today's systems being categorically different from these same practices of ages ago. But "neo-isms" are pretty much the same as the original-isms just at larger scale!
Abstract:
“This document is the result of a rigorous control system theory stability analysis of the current world de facto standard currency system and identifies a root instability in the form of the growth component of Debt associated with the money creation process. It first establishes the inherent instability of Common Lending Practices (application of interest). Then the analysis further charts the logical consequences of said root instability as it affects the economy as a whole and identifies how it provokes a systematic divergence between debt and value attributed to wealth in past cycles with the minimum value required in current and future cycles as those incorporate past unpaid debt i.e. systematic compounding of debt. It also identifies how the only means available within the system design for staving off inflation is through the continued contribution of collateral wealth as guaranty for the creation of new principal debt money commensurate with past debt growth. Finally it illustrates that compounding debt inevitably leads to a point where an inability to provide new wealth to guaranty new money to keep up with debt growth becomes chronic at which point either runaway inflation or a definitive collapse of the system inevitably ensues.”
“Bizarrely, almost every statist admits that politicians are more dishonest, corrupt, conniving and selfish than most people, but still insists that civilization can exist only if those particularly untrustworthy people are given both the power and the right to forcibly control everyone else.
Hundreds of millions of people of diverse backgrounds, cultures and ideas being governed by (supposedly) 535 people is NOT a GOOD idea, or any way to create a moral or just society, and is why the EVIL ideas of coercion, deception, extortion and violence are necessary to sustain the current system of coercion, deception, extortion and violence.
The more you invest in the left-right spectacle, the more you are pulled into defending power rather than questioning it.
You'll find yourself justifying the same violence you once opposed, as long as it's done by your side.
Instead of more and more cameras being pointed at average people, I suggest, more and more cameras be pointed at politicians and police to show why government should be abandoned.
Asking "Without government, who will build the roads?" is like asking "Without slavery, who will pick the cotton?".
The abolitionists of the past were under no obligation to explain how society would work without slavery.
The abolitionists of the present are under no such obligation either. Both of which understand that slavery is wrong and has to end.
The most powerful revolution is to live free.
They've prepared for anger. They've trained for hate. They expect chaos - because it keeps the game going.
But, they weren't ready for people to turn their backs on the system - growing their own food, teaching their own kids, healing their own bodies, reclaiming their minds.
It spreads like wildfire - one root, one truth, one act of self-responsibility at a time.
Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces.”
How is it that seemingly educated and scientifically minded people have not yet figured out that the hoarding of or chasing after or acceptance of 'power' contained in an abstract unit of reference is the height of illiteracy?
According to Wikipedia, "Metrology is the scientific study of measurement.[1] It establishes a common understanding of units, crucial in linking human activities."
It makes no sense to use a different standard in establishing a monetary unit for the measurement of and record keeping about 'value' that goes against the standards used to establish every other unit of measure.
If a person or country claimed to have a slush stash of millimeters and liters (vs inches and gallons) we would know of this insanity. But All are going along with the insanity of a stash of $ or some other currency that is supposed to be different from a stash of Euros or Pesos!! You know how these units come into being....right!?
It makes no more sense to go begging that some at the top within the system help to "fix" that system than it would be to ask slave owners at the top to demonstrate how to be a good slave owners while never demanding that they give up on slavery. We have rightfully been told that we are in “neo-feudal” times....and yet, way too many are simply whining and hoping that 'the next king will be a good king'!!
Imagine the healing of a world that comes from the leadership of a country that recognizes and abandons the ages long conceptual error of attempting to attach the features of a fungible commodity to their 'unit of measure' in their production and exchange and record keeping about 'value.' The leadership of every country must have its sights on what the Real Value is: the resources and labor and innovation and creativity and capacity of its land and people.
But can that full capacity manifest when the means by which the bookkeeping about their own economic activity holds an abstract Unit of AcCount - Money - to also BE an item of value akin to and/or equal, even superior, to the very natural resources of the land?
When we stopped using fungible physical commodities as 'trade goods' and moved to bookkeeping about the value contained in the goods and services of our interchange, we mistakenly and foolishly and illiterately assigned "value" to the number units themselves using symbols ($, etc.) as though those units were still commodities that had just lost their physical form.
The very conceptual subjugation of the full capacity of a society to an illiterate preoccupation with the preliminary acquisition of an abstract acCouting unit is a mistake of monumental proportions that even the best intentions cannot overcome while not correcting it. The 'inherited or imposed illiteracy' that surrounds money itself cannot be cured by holding the actors in this melodrama accountable for their actions within the illiterate paradigm. You see, one first has to think of, or be forced at gunpoint to accept, that money is an item of value that can also perform the function of 'unit measure of value.' But those two are mutually exclusive. The function called 'measure' is not sensible or reliable if the unit is constantly in flux and self-referential. That is the core illiteracy about money in the 'educated' class of the present day.
The 'reality transformation' that first occurs is the assumption that abstract units of representation possess the same characteristics of their predecessor trade goods and that some magical entity has the power to 'create' the abstract units of representation representing nothing but themselves!
But 'Money creation', from nothing and yet turned into a thing of 'value' - Poof! - is NOT a power that anyone actually has, not anyone, not any government, not any bank.
The first premise most people willingly go along with is the absolute illiteracy and illegitimacy of there being these so called "financial powers." WE ALL are the ones accepting the nonsense that the origination of the monetary unit is a magical process of 'creation' by some magical monetary power within government or banking. And we accept that this whole process must precede and subjugates economic activity of genuine value. And we accept this nonsense because we think that the monetary unit is an actual item of 'value'. It is NOT.
So, when the leadership of a society truly is motivated to establish "inclusive and sovereign endogenous development” it must realize that the present system and conceptual basis of money itself cannot assist but only interfere with this effort.
But won't it be amazing for a society's leadership to abandon this age old problem and correct the conceptual error by calling the world to genuine liberation through the establishment of a genuinely Logical and Mathematically Literate System of The Abstract Representation Of Value !?
Remaining within the framework of the conceptual error leaves people thinking that they must contend with others in ways that can only bring more and greater cycles of conflict.
We cannot keep accepting self-declared 'authority' on the part of the "issuer" of the numbers we use to do the bookkeeping about our own activity. Nor can we accept that the numbers on the ledger (or the coins of the realm that came before) are items of value all by themselves.
Yet, most all are going along with this.
Money is not a resource at all. That is the core illiteracy that people struggle with. Holding back genuine economic activity waiting for the abstract units to record that activity is like waiting for some of the inches to be available so that you can measure the boards to build something. And the unit of money is itself an absurdity in the field of Applied Math. How can one make sense of equations using a term that is undefined and unstable?
Posting stories about how people are behaving within this illiterate paradigm one may as well be calling out 'Follow The Liter!'
