Time To Think Differently

Our financial system (and world structure) is falling apart. The news may be reporting that everything is okay--that it's just another slump that will be followed by another recovery, but the world as we know it is in the midst of great change. The outcome will not be determined by those who have had power for so long. It will be determined by We the People. If we are to survive the changes intact, we must begin to think differently.

The same old reliance on the system will no longer work if the system is gone. It is dying because it was based on lies. Our countries do not "owe" interest to the banks, any more than we as individuals do. The financial system we have always known was put together in order to claim and consolidate the world's wealth and power into the hands of a relative few. It is based on fiat currency (aka literally fake, created-out-of-thin-air money). It has no basis in reality. It has been used to skew the true value of pretty much everything.

For example, people who work in certain industries (such as retail and food service) do not get paid according to the work effort they put in. Such jobs can be physically demanding as well as mentally, emotionally, and spiritually demanding as needy consumers try to extract what has been taken away from them in their own personal lives. Arguing that such jobs are not rocket science and do not deserve better pay only enables those at the top of the power structure to take even more. Fact of the matter is, not everyone can be a rocket scientist. That said, not everyone can be a waiter or a garbage collector, or a certified nursing assistant either. My question to you is, where would the rocket scientist be without the waiter, or the garbage collector, or the certified nursing assistant? He/she would end up getting his/her own food, surrounded by mounds of garbage, all the while not having time to do the rocket science job because all his/her time is being spent taking care of grandma!

We are dependent and interdependent on each other! To think more highly of some and less highly of others serves no useful purpose except to separate us even further and keep a warped and twisted society in place.

We the People have the ability to survive and even thrive! When we accept that our old society no longer serves us, we will be able to look at our world through new eyes. We will see possibilities where only problems existed previously.

It takes great courage to survive the coming changes, but you have withstood the test and are still here (and reading this)! It is up to all of us to create a functioning new world out of the rubble. It is why we are here. It is time to think differently!
