I am using this page as a kind of index or a bucket, where I will initially come and make a list of all the ramblings and ideas as they fill my consciousness and then expand on the ideas in their own dedicated page or post.
- Money - What is it and where is it all kept? In the olden days (Pre Word War 2), was based on the country's Gold Bullion reserves that they had safeguarded somewhere, like Fort Knox for instance. This is no longer the case, and so this begs the question...What is the value of our money based on today?
- Debt - My Father once told me that the Ruling party in Communist Russia, used to give its workers a bottle of Vodka a day, free. It was part of their rations. Decades later, it led to massive alcoholism problems amongst the population. I asked my Father, Why would they do this to their own people, to which he replied : How better to control a people and get them to do your bidding than if they are all drunk. Years later, I believe we are experiencing a similar phenomenon, however, this time, we are not being given Bottles of Vodka, rather, we are being offered Debt as a way to enslave us.
- Politics - Why does Democracy not work for the very people its meant to protect? How do we stop Cronyism? How can we make government accountable?
- Crowding the Government, Use social apps to tap into the largely unchartered waters of Government.
- Increasingly we hear and read in the media that 99% of the worlds wealth is held by 1% of the worlds population. Is this fair ? When is Enough Money, Enough? How can there be people starving to death and there be Homeless people when we are supposed to be living in a time of plenty?
