The control system has convinced us we can’t move mountains. And the control system’s correct. We can’t……in one big push. That’s the illusion that’s promoted by us and others to keep us immobilized; it’s all or nothing. But we don’t need to do it all at once. We can move the mountain one wheel barrel at a time. Anyone can. Once we push through this falsely perceived and promoted high hurdle, and we do this through the application of rigorous honesty, we begin to understand that it’s us who control the chains that bind us to our servitude. - from Welcome to The Insane Asylum by Cognitive Dissonance 2010
There is vigorous debate over different definitions and systems of fiat money and its subsequent breakdowns, but there are a few commonalities. First, it always fails in the end.
Second, the failure of money always happens with a loss of confidence by the people who use it. Eventually, a reset to a 'new and improved' money system restores confidence and the cycle often runs its course for the next few unsuspecting generations.
As we currently witness what appears to be an unprecedented global slow death of money, modern media is providing ringside seats to this loss of confidence. For your consideration: When Money Dies.
It is said that security is an illusion. The idea we are buffered from dangers of all shapes and sizes is a concept we carry through our days to function with some degree of confidence.
But in these strange days, when glitches and problems seem more normal than occasional, we begin to expect the unexpected. Indeed, when changing the rules hits us where it hurts the most, it is time to question just what is "safe".
