Forum Post: Fear factor

Reality is that the fed is to too powerful to bring down. Even if each person in the 99% put forth half their income we couldn't match the feds political buying power. Trying to elect a leader with a grass roots effort is futile because we are a nation intentionally divided. The system in irreversibly and absolutely corrupt. The fed is designed to be indestructible. Money=power=corruption The only solution is to remove money from the system thus equalizing all. The truth is that society is afraid of true equality.

tru dat

eah that's what they said in Egypt sort of. This movement is already making changes of minds and I see people starting to come together to talk about the collusion between corporations and government. The way I see it that's the problem that cause the rest of the problems. Our government is still in place we just need to call for investigations, regulation and basically build a firewall between Corporations and Government

[-] 1 points by Coreupt (294) 12 years ago

Good luck with that.

[-] 1 points by Democracydriven (658) 12 years ago

I still believe in the constitution and America

This movement if it continues is going to force huge change in one way or another (my opinion)

You on the other hand appear to have given up. I can definitely understand how people could get disenchanted.

[-] 1 points by Coreupt (294) 12 years ago

I am more than disenchanted with capitalism. It is a proven failure. However I have not given up. I believe that there is another way:

Technology is the impetus for the dawning of the new era. For the first time all of humanity can instantaneously communicate on a global scale. We can control our birth rate with the use of safe effective birth control. We have the resources to feed and house the world’s population. Most all human suffering is manmade or worsened by greed and lack of empathy. Technology has also given us the ability choose our destiny. We can continue the current trajectory: depletion of resources, growing inequalities and war. Or, we can choose a new way.

The path to enlightenment, equality, and sustenance is attainable with a united movement. Part of that movement is time bank. Time bank is a network of humanity. Organized on line. Completely transparent. All inclusive. Hour in. Hour out. That’s it. No person’s hour is more or less valuable than another.

A worldwide time bank can be started now. With enough participation it can catalyze the transition from the current corrupt monetary system to a society where money is irrelevant and each person is valued. Fear and greed will paralyze this movement. Hope and imagination can propel it.

Please elaborate. Why would one fear the truth. It is the future we rightfully fear We should be afraid, but only of ourselves.

[-] 1 points by Coreupt (294) 12 years ago

be afraid, be very afraid...

[-] 1 points by RichardGates (1529) 12 years ago

i think you're the one inciting fear.

the world's exponential population growth suggests resources aren't as plentiful as they once were

[-] 1 points by Coreupt (294) 12 years ago

I agree. There is a finite population that Earth can support. That is why to educatcation of Earth's population especially regarding the use of birth control is imperative. Technology can enable this education and allow access. Fundamentalism and politics intentionally prevent it.

[-] 1 points by mgiddin1 (1057) from Linthicum, MD 12 years ago

Birth control is too slow if you compare it to just having everyone eat GMO's.

Yes, that is intentional sarcasm.

[-] 1 points by MattLHolck (16833) from San Diego, CA 12 years ago

there is no greater machine than the human body?

I'm perplexed ( I understand the post just not Fundamentalims)

every family for itself?

what with gene tech

wont we be creating life forms from the genetic soup evolution brewed ?

[-] 1 points by Coreupt (294) 12 years ago

What poetry!

Are you suggesting that lower birth rate will contribute to a lack of genetic diversity among the human species.

Interesting postulation.

[-] 1 points by MattLHolck (16833) from San Diego, CA 12 years ago

I was suggesting that genetic science might increase the diversity of the human population via implanting gene traits

though I suffer for the one who dreams of wings only to find itself too heavy

Dreaming of bigger wings...

not afraid i dont think but i agree about the money or means of medium or bral arter the idea of money is to amass items of value money is not the problem value and a business structural system which only recognises wealth and core capital that is the problem

[-] 1 points by Coreupt (294) 12 years ago

Greed is the problem. I believe that greed is a learned behavior.

[-] 1 points by gawdoftruth (3698) from Santa Barbara, CA 12 years ago

removing money is not a solution. a paradigm shift is.

that eventually leads to making money obsolete.

this is a map of the real game and process.

Exactly, but they need a comprehensive strategy that implements all their demands at the same time, and although I'm all in favor of taking down today's ineffective and inefficient Top 10% Management Group of Business & Government, there's only one way to do it – by fighting bankers as bankers ourselves. Consequently, I have posted a 1-page Summary of the Strategic Legal Policies, Organizational Operating Structures, and Tactical Investment Procedures necessary to do this at:

if you want to be 1 of 100,000 people needed to support a Presidential Candidate – myself – at AmericansElect.org in support of the above bank-focused platform.

I see you're good at cut & paste.

[-] 1 points by atki4564 (1259) from Lake Placid, FL 12 years ago

It's very tough when you need to get 100,000 people to join a group and support a STRATEGY that addresses all their demands, right?

[-] 1 points by Coreupt (294) 12 years ago

I have already cut & pasted your link to some friends. It is not a criticism. I have been doing it too. I just found it humorous that I got the same response twice.

[-] 1 points by atki4564 (1259) from Lake Placid, FL 12 years ago

Thanks. I hope you will join the group at http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/StrategicInternationalSystems/ too, for every person added is more powerful than the last person added.

i understand your view of the issues. But your solution sounds like virtual communism to me.

[-] 1 points by Coreupt (294) 12 years ago

Communism is another monetary system. The system we currently endure is broken beyond repair. Call it what you like but a time bank is one tool that we can use to elevate humanity from the corrupt, ill society that will ultimately lead to our own destruction.
