How can we spend more on our armed forces?
Dear Mr Rayment
The military Experts could only suggest making savings somewhere.
But the truth is Britain needs more money to spend. More money means
more new money. An increase in the money supply by the addition
of exrtra money to the money, which already exists.
That is plain to see if you notice that our total debts, public
and private, now run into many trillions of pounds. Some of those
debts go back to the Napoleonic wars. Those trillions can never
be repaid in what remains of eternity.
This fact reveals a hidden datum, which is never ever remarked
upon. The sole source of new money in Britain today is credit issued
by private banks. Credit is not money and must be laundered into
money. It costs two pounds to launder every pound of credit. You
never, ever see that fact stated by anyone.
In my opinion it would be most unwise to create and issue new money
in order to fight wars. The Hawks are for too greedy. But we could
help the Doves to pay their taxes by using new money, minted, printed
or somehow created by the Treasury, to pay for essential national
assets required by the nation to create our wealth. Billions and
billions of tax payers money is poured into that black hole which
should not even exist.
As a representative of a movement in favour of changing all this,
I personally hope you can promote this and get the data into the
hands of military experts who would gladly use it.
