I'm sure there's a most amazing bestseller / blockbuster slowly crystallising in my overloaded melon.
It's been a fascinating, amusing, shocking and worrying education but ultimately I believe the process has changed my understanding of global events, politics, economics and informed me of all the real facts behind the two-minute news pieces on tv, radio and press.
From what I (think I) know now, here is how the whole world works in a nutshell :
The central banks are private companies .... basically printing companies.
The printers create currency from paper and ink.
They sell the paper to the governments - the price being interest.
The governments spend the money (mostly on themselves, their mates and stick a lot of it in pensions for their families). Some of it is left over to 'run' the country.
They still need to pay interest back so they take about half of the personal income citizens earn from their own labour and pay it over to the printers.
The value of currency is actually the ability of any government's ability to steal more and more of its citizens personal income - without objection.
Why don't we see it?
Because of the cleverly engineered global smoke screen
X Factor, Manchester United, Brangelina, the Kardashians, JJ Abrams, U2, Posh & Becks, Jenna Jameson, Jersey Shore, Britain's Got Susan Boyle, DreamWorks, Call of Duty, Pilates, Lance Armstrong, Champions League, The Matrix, Twilight, I'm a Celebrity ............. I could go on for several more pages.
There are people who are beginning to see behind the smoke screen. More and more people worldwide are discovering the truth of how things work. And talking about it.
We need to change things before they disable our ability to investigate them, to inform ourselves, to communicate between ourselves and to organise ourselves.
Within a few years it may no longer be possible....
