    FREEDOM FOR REAL

    Of course this factor is only valid for the money of each individual nation. A nation has as much or as little of its own currency as that nation decides. It is not until a nation and its people come to this realisation, that any nation anywhere can have freedom and independence.

    Freedom and independence have been absent from life on Planet Earth for so long that their blessings are no longer thought to exist. There is only one way to live one's life successfully and that is to live life by one's own determination.

    This requires freedom, freedom from poverty, from fear, from preventable diseases and illness. And freedom to fulfil ones own potential. It also requires independence from any oppressive will of others, from hard-sell and propaganda, from demands that you keep up with the Jones’s, that you conform to fashion, that you do as others do and that you “better” yourself instead of being yourself.

    What has never been known is freedom from commercial warfare. We have never known how good life could be if the whole world were competing to help the other chap, instead of competing to beat him.

    The highest pleasure to which a human being may aspire is to successfully help another. But in a world of cut-throat competition, help can become betrayal.

    Commercial warfare arises entirely from the lack of a definition of the word money in the subject of economics with the resulting chaos and confusion in the workaday world.
