Why we need financial control
The financial system is a fantasy (like the board game Monopoly) which has real world implications (effecting the living human beings who get caught in the economic/financial fictions). Recently in New Zealand and Australia we have seen a perfect example of how financial corporations use their knowledge of the fictional game to make as much money for themselves as they can, without regard of the costs to human lives. The case in point is Dick Smith electronics.
For a play by play brake down of how the private equity group (Anchorage Capital) brought and gutted Dick Smith, resulting in loss to shareholders, gift card invalidation, and job loss, please check out this article at Forager Funds.
The short story is simply that Anchorage Capital are really good at exploiting a system which has been designed, and which is increasingly shaped (through policy, legislation, and beliefs) to, enable a small group of humans to profit off the many. We need to ask – how can this state of things have occurred?
Look out at what has happened in economics, law, and politics (mix in corporate entertainment and media with regards to ‘perception management’ – a fancy way to describe psychological rape) over the last hundred and fifty years. We see decreased regulation and increased freedoms for corporations, while witnessing increased regulation and decreased freedoms for living humans. In conjunction to this we find that corporations (especially government) are slowly, and surely, creeping into more and more of human activity (and especially interaction).
Where once living beings were free to do as we please so long as our actions harmed none (no human had the right to interfere in our business if we obeyed the golden rule, Natural (Gods) Law – do not steal; life liberty, or property), we are now imprisoned in our own creation (a state governed by man, the kingdom of mammon). We need to register our most important things with a corporate government; such as ourselves (children), our declaration of love/faithfulness to another human (marriage), and some physical tools we may use (such as car and gun). We need licenses to do things humans have a natural right to do, such as drive a vehicle, fish in fresh water, and hunt; and permits to modify our own land/home, to hold a public demonstration of humans addressing a corporation, use some public land in an organised event, etc.
What happened to Dick Smith can only happen under our current system of social control. It is only when we, as a collective group, move toward solutions, that we will create a world (an actual CIVILisation) we can be proud of.
