This essay is about trust. It is written because I see a lot of friends, family and acquaintances placing their trust into falsely publicized ideas regarding the landscape of our future. My concern is that people are trusting in an economic system which is ultimately going to fail them.
It also serves as an
apologia
for my stance in current affairs.
Many of the things we have faith in are presented by government and corporate media as being sound investments. People often think of investment only in terms of surplus money they've earned and saved. The primary, and often unconscious, investment activity for most people is going to school or work every week believing in a future that will mostly resemble the past, with an added measure of "progress" to keep things interesting.
In direct opposition to what is being promoted in the marketplace, evidence
is presented here that our political/financial system is swiftly approaching
the end of its life. Due to the nature of the economic forces leveraged, the
devastating consequences are likely to be both abrupt and severe.
There is an economic tsunami approaching; it is very real and a lot of people are going to get hurt. Yet, we are not entirely trapped in the prevailing system. There is an alternative form of currency which has lasting value, where we are all intrinsically rich; our time, attention, creativity, labor, care and cooperative efforts constitute a wellspring of enduring wealth which can stand entirely apart from the present debt and commoditization economy. Hopefully the information shared here will help you identify some places to avoid, and some places which are ideal, when investing your real wealth and trust.
