Our Financial Systems are Pro-Power, Not Pro-People – and That’s a Problem

Over time, there is a stage in a system that positively affects the people on its primitive stage. However, as time passed by, it slowly deteriorates the people and possibly led to chaos. Are you wondering why this usually happens in human existence? Are you thinking of a way to eliminate those systems and live a peaceful life in return?

What we need to have in mind is the simple solution that…

All systems must be built on voluntary aware consent for participation.

We must be free to walk away from the violence or the threat of violence. Those things are the sole reasons why we currently have such systems that hinder us from achieving peace. True voluntary participation can only exist without violence and the threat of violence. If people are aware of this simple solution, they can determine the systems that will go bad.

The solution as to how to bring peace to society
Are financial systems favoring the rich and powerful?

Be Aware

To be aware means to understand all the possible positive and negative outcomes. This means that people must be mindful of the agreements within the system they belong to. It also allows them to choose to follow or not to the agreement and terms & conditions they have to agree upon.

It is unfair to expect someone to pursue an agreement that they have not agreed to. It is even worse to use violence or threaten violence when someone is unaware that the agreement even exists. Also, children must not be threatened with violence for their participation just because they lack knowledge about certain agreements imposed by the system. If a system is fair, sustainable, and peaceful based on history, young people will join it; otherwise, they rebel.

Accountable & Transparent

As we have seen in the past, any institution that the community has given the power to use violence or the threat of violence must be subject to the highest level of accountability and transparency to the community that it serves and empowers it.

This implies that they are accountable for whatever violence they are giving to their community, leading to the worst atrocities in human history. It usually happens after an economic crisis. This includes the Bolshevik Revolution, Nazi Germany, and the Chinese Cultural Revolution.

The Monetary System ‘Solution’

The monetary system plays a crucial role in the lifestyle of the people. We humans should be free to store our economic assets in whatever storage of value we choose. We are spending too much time earning money. However, the current monetary system must be changed because it is not pro-people, but pro-power.

The authorities are abusing their power to control the current monetary system we have. If everyone is free to choose what type of value and what type of money to store their economic energy inside of with equal legal and tax treatment, and if the authorities would go hand-by-hand following the rights of the people, then the system will work sustainably. This solution is for happiness, best ideas, and sustainability.

Happiness

The solution we are talking about is allowing us the right to live in a free and just society. This is when we can do what we want, where we want, with whom we wish to, and when we get to keep most of what we work for. We should be free of our actions as long as we are not costing other people without their voluntary consent.

Everyone has the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, as stated in the written works on the U.S. Declaration of Independence.

Best Ideas

Attaining this solution with the right formula and steps would allow us to create positive feedback for peace and efficiency. Violence or the threat of violence can manipulate the freedom of choice and hinder the free organic growth of new ideas and alternative solutions for the greater good.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results.” – Albert Einstein.

Sustainability

Sustainability does not require violence. The solution explains that every system that shows violence or the threat of violence does not succeed through time. With this, we can also imply that our current monetary system is unsustainable because of its nature. It uses manipulation, violence, and the threat of violence. The effectiveness of the system fades away because of the inequalities it possesses.

Not Our Fault

Human existence is not the root cause of the problem. Hence, it is the system that manipulates people. Most people in the world are peaceful, kind, generous, and hardworking. They want to be happy, accessible, and more prosperous. They also want a better life for themselves, their family, and their country and are willing to work honestly and hard for it.

That is the overall nature of humanity. However, most people inside the systems are not even aware of the negative side of the structures we have in the present that evolved from the past, and maybe to the future.

People who understand the hidden advantage of the system uses violence that creates differences and insecurities among other people. These people we talk about are closed-minded in accordance with voluntary exchanges. Basing this phenomenon on the money system, those who have greater access to the monetary system are more likely to abuse their power, which negatively impacts most people. 

Those authorities, such as some politicians and corporations, can get more money from wall street and the banking system than the customer base, which creates a serious problem. Also, this forms the corrupted symbiotic relationship between the regulated and the regulators, a revolving door that does not serve the average person’s life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

We can achieve the solution we are looking for by first identifying the problem and where it came from. This would open us to be sustainable in the future. There is consciousness present for determining the root cause of the anomalies in the system, which could eventually be eliminated. The collective economic choices of individuals will accurately reflect the will of the peaceful and creative billions of people on the planet, and there will finally be at peace.

The Power of Money

We, humans, are surrounded by the power of money. It is the single most significant influencing factor for all people living on the planet. Because of this, how money is distributed, circulated, created, and destroyed are one of the main subjects taught in school, discussed within families and public and private organizations.

The adverse effects of our current debt system have now reached nearly every corner of the world, in education, art, religion, politics, business, and unfortunately, even the legal & justice system. Consequently, the worse scenario is that the people who do not have the money are easy to manipulate because of the system’s effects.

We have been the recipients of these systems’ violent nature. The cycle is repeating all over again. Although they have different results, the pattern is still present. Insanity is evident if we are aware of the system’s violence, but we have nothing to do about it. We must work for peace as soon as possible.

How to bring peace to society and the world, just systems

“Gold and silver coin is the most perfect medium because it will preserve its own level; because having an intrinsic and universal value, it can never die in our hands, and it is the surest resource of reliance in time of war.” – Thomas Jefferson.

The gold and silver coins can be related to the simple solution. It can never die in our hands and it will be the resource needed in the time of war and to prevent it from happening. Freedom of choice is the best we can hope for. Many politicians and systems around the world are afraid of having free choices within their territories, and they want their people not to have a choice but to participate.

That is an unsustainable action. The first step to break the cycle is to be aware of the cycle. Let us set Japan as an example. During World War II, they were the ones who initiated violence. Because of that, they did not succeed. When they get to learn their ‘real’ predator. They found peace and converted it to more happiness, joy, relaxation, and variety. One of the important steps is to get the majority of your wealth out of the debt fiat currency system.

We must act now because we will see the formidable peace of the future. We must do it now because it will last forever. We must commit now because it is the solution of now and beyond.
