The Optimist’s Challenge

There is one bright light at the end of the tunnel though.

This process has run its course numerous times on earth.

Its called fascism and its the death spasm of every society that uses wealth as a measure of a person’s importance.

Its the way all money based civilizations disintegrate and dissolve.

The rich get richer and richer and eventually join forces to buy the reigns of power, in order to get even richer still.

But that is their only drive – more wealth.

They don’t really have a plan beyond “get stinking rich and live like gods”.

The system will fall apart around them, as you can see already happening, but they won’t spend the money to repair it because they want to horde that money away in their offshore accounts. They think that vast wealth will keep them safe after everything falls apart.

It always has in the past.

Once this nation falls, they believe all they have to do is go live in another nation and their wealth will buy them security anywhere they want to go.

It always has in the past.

Like rats, they always depart the sinking vessel before it goes under, so all we have to do is wait till they destroy the money based infrastructure and leave, then build something useful and functional that does not use money as a measure of a human’s life as the basis for that new society.

Remember, the wealthy will have horded away all the money in America by that point and will take it all with them when they leave anyway. So a non-monetary system is a necessity.

Big task certainly, but since the public has already begun to take over most of the really vital functions of the delinquent fascist government – out of simple necessity – it should not be an un-surmountable challenge.

And in truth, there really isn’t any other choice. There is nothing that can be done to stop the process once the fascists have taken over the political, financial and industrial structures. They will literally milk it to death.

Build another money based economy and you will only start the same curve downhill once again. The Money-run is a fun ride for some – the most ruthless and opportunistic, selfish and self-serving criminals among us – but the end is inevitable and always the same for the rest.

And the only way you can start a new civilization, is after the old one is dissolved, so the optimist says “they’re doing us all a favor by destroying the system of corruption that currently masquerades as government.”.

Lets break the cycle and build something lasting for a change.
