Why work for pieces of paper that our creators of money waste without worry?
We used to be connected by what we all worked towards or for that was beyond money within our communities. With the introduction of “money” in the form of gold and silver, the world was able to properly value the worth of labor and goods. With the destruction of the “gold standard” it became impossible to put any objective value or worth on work or goods. Convincing us all to work for worthless pieces of paper is the greatest con ever conceived. It is just an advanced form of slavery-mercenary life. What is capitalism when we work for a “currency” created out of thin air by our overlords who waste without worry?

We have all become mercenaries paid with paper that sooner than later will be completely worthless. Why continue? Why not begin to build upon the rubble now? The world after this will either revert to a system that is “post-money” or it will convert to a system with a currency that cannot be created out of thin air. Enough with the slave-mercenary-constant bubble-always fake global markets.

A society based upon this type of system cannot last indefinitely. It doesn’t matter how much I invest in alternative currencies that hold value. It doesn’t matter how much I “secure” my own future or how much wealthier I make myself then the man down the street who does not. I will “waste my time” (as you seem to see it) fighting against this con until the system collapses and we revert to a system that works for all people. Stability, fairness, at least in currencies. If we don’t have that there is no point in continuing to stay a capitalistic country. You can do what you like, basking in the ability to convert fiat to non-fiat, but I will choose to look for a way to overthrow the system.

Guess my last point is that when it does all crash down, and most will be upset and crying and shouting, “Why me?”, I think it will actually be the best thing that can happen. All we must do then is stop accepting paper money and either go to sharing what we have without the use of money or utilizing only that which cannot be created as a unit or exchange.

And good morning.
