Never in
history have a people around the entire world been faced with the
potential for economic meltdown confronting us today. You will hear
others say this. But what they tell you to do about securing the
well being and safety of your family and community will be very
different.
Here, we
outline for you an approach which works, keeping you secure while at
the same time providing the means for building a new economy, one
which simultaneously allows you to get out, taking your capital with
you, while facilitating the same effect for others. Doing so
provides you with essential protection. There is strength in
numbers.
Many
believe they can follow the isolation strategy, given enough
resources, but this conclusion stems from insufficient understanding
of the facts and direction events are now taking.
This plan
significantly reduces the power of those responsible for the problems
we face. These investments save your capital while building an
entry way into a very different future, both for Americans and people
around the world.
The
people who have designed the trap now confronting us have been
referred to as Corporatists, Bankers, Multi-National Corporations,
along with other identifiers. We call them Greedville
because their absolute numbers are small, about the size of a town of
100,000. However, their impact on the world, is impossible to
calculate.
These few,
greedy, and conscienceless individuals, have destroyed nations,
subjected millions to death through violence, starvation, and
disease, brought the balance of nature to a precipice, and consumed
the carefully saved earnings of generations of hard-working, decent,
people.
The present
Grid Economy is the business model originated by the folks of
Greedville. It is designed to extract money from all of us in two
ways.
How
Greedville Profits
First,
externalization of their costs of doing business was central to a
plan which, as is true today, allows for the accumulation of vast
wealth through misdirection and stealth. They do this by eliminating
competition and by ensuring we pay their real costs of doing
business.
What they
practice is crony capitalism without a free market in sight.
As we see
today, with the ugly, calloused, behavior of oil companies, it is
very much in their business plan to cut their costs, externalizing
the damage done to people and the environment. The same is true of
the present producers of energy in any form along with multiple other
industries.
Government,
an extension of their corporate business model, enables these thefts.
Not only do
they take no responsibility for the damage they do, they demand we
subsidize them through the government for which we also pay.
Our
monetary system has also become a source for predatory greed in a
mind boggling number of ways. Why should government or corporations
charge us for every transaction, every purchase, every exchange
between people?
This began
as small amounts which many of us overlooked. But greed begets more
greed and they found ever more ways to increase what they take
covertly.
Through our
system of banking, and then moving on to every imaginable application
of their business model, they enriched themselves. When new
technologies approached the market which would end their ability to
tap into our wallets these were opposed and sidelined.
New
technologies, ones which take you and your money off the grid,
becoming invested in the New Economy, are at the core of this
strategy
Government
has limited the options available to the rest of us, enforcing this
through government fiat. This is why nuclear energy was foisted on
us, instead of solar energy. How do you tap income from someone who
is using the sun as their source for power? Eliminating options is
another aspect of their approach to 'business.'
As your
available options grow more limited, the amounts Greedville extracts
rises. They know you have no choices left. Other clever cons were
installed in their system as well. Tremendous effort goes into
planning each of these by experts in systems analysis and economics.
There were no accidents.
How This
Happened
For
Greedville's plan to work they needed to control what we believe.
The main
stream media is an extension of public relations for Greedville. As
most of us now realized, it is not a reliable and accurate source of
information and news. Most of the major media have been owned by
Greedville, and its governmental partners, for two generations.
Although
the first successful American PR campaign was waged for the adoption
of the Pledge of Allegiance in 1892 by a coalition of Nationalists,
driven by ideology, managing public opinion started with Edward
Bernays in the 1920s. Bernays' book, “Propaganda,”
remains an early Bible for manufacturing public opinion for profit.
War is also
a corporate tool. Organized, focused, violence is used both to
manufacture public attitudes and acquire resources. Brave soldiers
are dying for corporate profits, persuaded to risk their lives for
the nation they love by people without conscience. These individuals
are experts in the use of our honor, and love, to manage what we
believe and what we will sacrifice for our beliefs.
In the
past, men of conscience, who knew the truth, have tried to warn us.
From
the blunt statements of Major General Smedley Butler, whose book,
“War
is a Racket,”
pulled no punches, to retiring president Dwight David Eisenhower,
with his eloquent final
speech,
January 17, 1961, on the Multi-National Corporations, and more
recently with the personal narrative of John
Perkins
in his book,
“Confessions of an Economic Hitman,”
how military force supports policy is clearly illustrated. And
today, Americans are learning how the militarization can be used to
negate our Constitution and alter our relationship with America's law
enforcement, both local and national. YouTube, and the Internet,
leave no doubt.
The
professions of national defense and law enforcement have become
tools, used to advance the interests of Greedville, along with our
courts.
Greedville has been diligent in
cutting off potential escape routes, witness the 'policies' which
criminalize the means used by people to avoid non-currency exchange,
for instance by growing their own food, using technologies which
allow them to generate their own energy, among many, reduce the
small, and sometimes larger amounts, of currency which flows into the
control of a relatively small number of individuals.
Traditional investments are now traps
which bleed you like a roulette wheel. Big banks, the bond market,
the stock market, are calibrated to take you capital and leave you
broke.
Despite this, there is an opening
which can take us into the light of a new, Post-Greedville, economy.
Welcome
to the New Economy
Today,
despite the housing meltdown, panicky investors have recognized they
need to put their capital in something real. This is the source of
the uptick in sales of homes in such places as California and
Florida, areas which are known to have a continuing high demand.
Investors
may have millions, or much less, but they are looking for something
which provides potential for growth and security against the
predators now looming in every market.
Today,
the United States housing market is still the fifth largest market on
earth, despite everything. It is large enough to provide the fulcrum
for substantial shift, if those investments change the makeup of the
market. These are the right investments, one made into the New
Economy. These investments produce more benefits than you imagined
possible.
Knowing
what the right investments are is essential to more than just saving
your capital. It includes saving your life and your freedom.
The New
Economy and how it changes our world
There
has been a steady rise in voices which challenge the assumptions most
of us accepted about business. Greedville uses commerce as a weapon
of war, and war to close off options for nations and individuals.
The New Economy will be a tool for peaceful exchange, helping people
from diverse backgrounds trust each other while lowering their
absolute need to compete just for necessities.
Trust
is a form of capital which changes the future interactions between
people.
The New Economy provides tools which make
it possible to trust each other as we move to a new way of living,
one which rebuilds communities and relationships. The New Economy
provides alternatives for exchange between people along with
technologies which lower recurring costs for simply living. What it
does not do is make it possible for a few to accumulate profits using
deceit and manipulation, removing this as a human strategy.
In parallel with the proven success of
microfunding and, more recently, online sites which allow people to
donate funding for projects and small businesses, the shift point
for the New Economy is activated by millions of people who can make
choices for reasons which make good sense for them. It is not
altruism, but informed self-interest for individuals who are now
finding themselves in grave circumstances because of the loss of
options caused by Greedville.
The best way to tell you is to use one
example for choices, small choices made by one couple.
George and Kim were both retiring and
decided to follow the advise of a friend and relocate back to the
town where they both grew up.
Both of them were stressed, tired from
long commutes to jobs which they did not enjoy. Both had medical
problems and were overweight.
Located in the midwest, the town has
shrunk in size and they could buy a home for 25% of what they could
sell their home for in Long Beach, California. It was a tough
choice, but they knew George's pension was gone in the bankruptcy of
the company he had worked for and Kim's 401K was small, barely enough
to pay for their move. As it turned out, they received the money not
long before her fellow former employees lost their 401Ks.
After years of careful savings, they
would be dependent on their social security and what they got from
the sale of their home.
Determined to lower their recurring
monthly costs, George and Kim decided to have a home built which was
Deep Green Passive, using part of the money from the sale of their
home in Long Beach. This meant no heating or cooling bills in an
area where summers were hot and it snowed in the winter. They had
been there for nearly a year when they realized nothing had needed
fixing, either.
Kim had always wanted to garden. She
found plans online while they were still in California for a
geothermal system which allowed them to grow all year, even in the
snow. They bought the plans online and took them with them when they
moved. They included some citrus trees in their garden. George
decided this made good sense and also put in an aquaponics unit from
a company which encouraged customers to start teaching others how to
grow their own food.
Their new neighbor raised chickens and
Kim began trading with her, and then others, for eggs, chicken and
other meat, using her produce and fish. The local grow community was
also expanding, and many of these people became their close friends.
George and Kim joined a local time bank
and began exchanging work with people in their town. No money
changed hands. Folks were interested in their geothermal system and
their aquaponics. George started building them for others, some
through the exchange, and others for money.
Then Kim met a couple who were installing
a new kind of solar system which also generated hydrogen. George
and Kim exchanged time with him, allowing them to get a unit for
themselves.
Another family in the exchange was
modifying automobiles to run on hydrogen and hours were exchanged so
George and Kim's car needed no gasoline.
Kim and George had been overweight and
stressed when they left California. Now, each was thin and relaxed.
Their diets had changed dramatically. Without realizing they had
nearly eliminated GMO and additives from their diets.
Kim and George got active in their
community, using spare time to help organize a local theater and
brush up on skills which they had not used in decades. Benjamin, a
rescue cat, became a fixture in their lives. Their lives had
changed, and all of it for the better.
George and Kim signed petitions to change
the way their local government was organized, moving along with other
towns and counties to local control, but were not particularly
active, spending time instead with relief work for their church.
What happened with George and Kim was a
transition from grid economy to New Economy. The shift begins with
people making choices which are right for them. These are not
ideological choices which demand sacrifice.
Right now, people are looking for
choices. Alternatives must be available. This is the window of
opportunity for investors and all of us. These are, at one time,
the only secure investment available and the best way to turn off the
flow of funds to those who are presently eating us alive.
In this war of economies, the grid is
pitting itself against the freedom of people to choose. Investing
in technologies, starting businesses based on them, growing local,
all of these allow us to move into the New Economy. Every time one
of us does the power flowing to those who have been eating us alive
is diminished.
All you have to lose is enslavement. All
you have to gain is freedom.
Increased regulation and low interest rates are driving lending from
the regulated commercial banking system into the unregulated shadow
banking system. The shadow banks, although free of government
regulation, are propped up by a hidden government guarantee in the form
of safe harbor status under the 2005 Bankruptcy Reform Act pushed
through by Wall Street. The result is to create perverse incentives for
the financial system to self-destruct.
