I haven't written for a few days because I am not sure who my readers are, even if I have any readers, and what they think is happening. I thought I would write in the next few days a synopsis of what I think is happening and why I think it is positive although it may seem negative in the short run.
I can only skim the surface because a full discussion would take volumes on each topic. At this moment the world financial markets are collapsing. They may see-saw for awhile and give investors false hope but they are beyond recovery. A complete collapse could happen at any time; certainly, at the most, only months away. Yes, this will be painful but going on like this would be more painful. In the last Century, money has become the exclusive source of power and influence. Democracy has always been greatly hampered by money but now it has been made impossible. Elections are prohibitively expensive, a politician cannot get elected without mortgaging his soul, newspapers, television etc. are dependent on advertising so what you see and here is only what money wants you to know. There are hundreds of lobbyist for every congressperson. Due the math. Ask yourself when did Democracy die? As long as money is power, in the hands of a few, Democracy will be impossible. We cannot cure this problem with legislation, money finds a way around every obstacle.
It is very strange that the greed of the monied few created the situation that they and we find ourselves in. The stock markets have become gambling casinos, bank leveraging has become obscene, speculation has created a situation where there is not enough money in the world to cover the debts. The housing bubble alone, with the associated credit default swaps, created worthless paper that is still sitting in bank holdings without possibility of redemption and they alone are enough to insure collapse and that's not the half of it.
We can only welcome a collapse because we need to create a new society where money can no longer be garnered by a few who can then wield power over the rest of us. This will require a rise in consciousness. In order for people to have a rise in consciousness they must become aware. Becoming "Aware" is more than seeing "what's going on" it is also taking control back of your life; to do this you must give up fear. Money controls through fear. I will have more on this at a later date.
Many people are not aware that great changes are in process. People are so busy trying to make a living they collapse in front of the TV exhausted every night and believe what they are taught to believe. There are a whole bunch of other people who have long since realized that "truth" cannot be found in the popular media and search the internet and other sources to grasp what is going on. One of the big changes that is happening is that truth is coming out regardless of the money control of the media. There is very definitely an increase in the awareness of the populace and concurrently a greater difficulty in keeping things hidden.
One of the things we will be faced with will be more and more revelations about how we have been controlled and manipulated by power interest both corporate and governmental {and corporate through government}. It is going to shock many people and be very confusing. Almost nothing you believe about government in relation to foreign policy is true. The machinations of power in the interest of making more and more money have corrupted everything. Everything!
Well that is enough for the day. I need to wash the dishes. I hope to write tomorrow, although I need to get some chickens in the freezer.
I hope your with me.
Love and Peace, Gregg
