Great article Joe! Thanks. I am constantly surprised by how little people know about the real world about what’s behind what we see. When you discover that the world is run by pedophiles, thieves, murderers, adulterers, liars (most of them not all though) you see what a ridiculous pantomime the whole thing really is. I’m talking about government and their relationship to us and to corporations. Then there’s the treasonous press who is the most egregious of all because they keep us in the dark. However there is no reason to remain in the dark anymore with the internet.

Even in business college, students and teachers do not know how money is created. Even bank mangers don’t know and bank staff. Here’s an easy explanation from Mike Maloney: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFDe5kUUyT0

Money is the vehicle that retards humankind. That’s a big statement but it’s true because it’s based on one of our most deprived emotions — greed. But we have so much higher emotions. We don’t need money anymore here’s why — money started off to replace barter and barter was used to trade goods and services. But today we don’t do those kinds of jobs and machines are doing most of the things we need and it will only become moreso. Money is collapsing before our eyes. However it is pure conjecture that Capitalism made us better off. If you look at it this way, money is the root of Capitalism, Socialism and Communism so they’re only tweaked in cosmetic ways like the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. Everything we think we know is a lie. Everything! We have been disparaged as humans since the day we were born. Something went wrong somewhere and it was probably as far back as when money was used. You are right, without money we would have a lot less psychopathy. I agree with your suggestion of reintroducing humiliation and ostracism. In a violent-free world, what else can one use? Let’s get rid of jails, the barbaric, Middle Ages idea that has done nothing but increase human misery for all. Let’s forget about Congress. We have the means now to decide everything in online polls, each voice having equal weight. You can vote on any issue that interests you. Why not have children voting too — after all, what say do they have in their future world? We can do this and more now. We have 3D printers that can make houses out of mud in short shrift, we can manufacture our own cars locally, we can have sub-grids that service local communities but can be hooked onto the grid if desired. We can have internet service throughout the country for free and even supply it to other countries (for example the ones we’ve destroyed) What is stopping us from having all these lovely things? The psychopaths. They rule.
