Misplacing Value
| April 12, 2011 | Posted by dan under Money |
We look at money the paper thing itself and we think this is the thing of value, and we have been doing this now for so many years that we have lost all sense of where the actual value lies. The money is not the value it is a mere symbol for the underling value or a unit of account for the underlying debt obligation of which debt represents the time and energy of people explained here as the only potential form of value.
And so due to this misplacing of value thinking the symbol is the value itself we have created an economy that esteems those who create no valuable but do accumulate many symbols(money/credit) and demotes the most valuable within the economy to the bottom of the pile those who produce goods and services useful to others. These would be the producers, inventors, artists, laborers, as opposed to the least valuable the investors, bankers, celebrity’s, landlords so on.
People think they pay alot for food but food couldn’t be priced cheaper if you tried they have squeezed every drop possible out of the value of the chain of labourers involved in bringing you that food as well as all other necessary goods and services. If only I could impart to you the dynamic of how it works, its hard to articulate. The wealthiest create their profit through usury and inflation, that profit was not created by them actually providing anything of value was it? Clicking buy or sell on your computer screen does not produce actual value, or just because you are receiving $500 per day in interest as you sunbath with a martini does not mean you are creating value, infact you are only consuming it.
But consider that money gained through usury can in-turn be spent on things of value or have people who produce value exchange their time and energy for this money so the money gained via usury has to derive its value from somewhere and one form is for those ‘toiling the field’ so to speak have a 10% cut in wage or produce 10% more in the same timespan whenever the money supply is increased by 10% and that 10% begins its life as new money in the bank accounts of those investors and bankers ready to spend it and create more inflation thus diluting the purchasing power of your money and thus by association the future value of your labour.
This process has been happening at a slow enough rate that so far it has not been entirely detectable by the people, but that is changing as we speak. The price of silver is up more than 900% since 2001, people are starting to question if its really worth exchange so much of their time and energy for (public credits) which is rapidly losing its value. And as any reader of my blog know money is faith based, it is essentially backed by the time and energy of people through their promise in the form of their debts and so when d
oubt sets in that’s the opposite of faith meaning the money is getting very shaky hence the reason people are pouring into gold and silver and other commodity’s as stores of value.
On a side note you may think it hypocritical of me to denounce investors whilst advertising people buy gold/silver but this was not for the purpose of you making profits by doing nothing, but instead simply to secure the fruits of your own labours so they cannot be stolen via these unseen means were are describing.
I do not personally want to see a hyper inflation scenario, this would be too destructive to do us any favors but instead a transition of types would be preferable. A writing off of huge amounts of debts and a reacquiring of the public’s right to issue its own currency debt free.
So because of this misplacing of value we get these ideas which seem very reasonable but when you see the underlying dynamics are obliviously worthless and these ideas are that you can fix certain problems in the world by throwing money at it. Take a part of the world thats in poverty and so we think if some altruistic billionaire gave fortunes to these people that would fix things….? No it wouldn’t, firstly you have to see things holistically when dealing with economics on a global scale. If you shift billions in cash from one area of the globe to another you are shifting debt obligations. The debt never gets reduced but it can be moved around. Take the analogy of a balloon you squeeze one side the air will move into the other but the volume of air is the same. So likewise by giving billions here you en-debt billions there.
If a people are poor they need nothing added to them because all the value they need is within them, this is the source of all value. So what they actually need is somthing taken away from them not added. They dont need to be given billions which will only mean another group of people in the world are now in debt to them instead they need taken away from them the corrupt governments, the money system they are using, the leeches who make up that money system. They need this taken away and then their abundance will naturally come about because the blackhole sucking away their works and energy’s has been lifted.
They dont need money from George Soros and his charity when the man never gave anything of himself ever but at most only gave what he previously stole.
If we start to recognise the true source of value rather than seeing value in money, these things will fix themselves as if by magic.
