Aloha Brian:

This is the best commentary on money I have come across in one place. I am a spiritual truth seeker and have researched much of what you have explained here through many sources over the years. It is gratifying to see that someone has taken the time to compile this information in a format that is succinct and credible. What you have done here is absolutely wonderful and I applaud your ability to provide this information on AR. I have tried to explain the banking system to others but have fallen short due to my inability to provide the information as well as you have here.

Thank you Brian and God Bless you. I have told my son about your blog & website and hopefully he will one day access your video. We are involved in real estate staging in Hawaii.

I didn't do this video it is from Google.  I found it a couple of weeks ago and watched it and have watched it twice since then.   I never knew the whole process and history of money and how debt powers the economy.  Here is the information from google about the maker of this video.

It really made me stop and think.

 Paul Grignon's 47-minute animated presentation of "Money as Debt" tells in very simple and effective graphic terms what money is and how it ... all » is being created. It is an entertaining way to get the message out. The Cowichan Citizens Coalition and its "Duncan Initiative" received high praise from those who previewed it. I recommend it as a painless but hard-hitting educational tool and encourage the widest distribution and use by all groups concerned with the present unsustainable monetary system in Canada and the United States. 

Mahalo Brian for sending me this information....Just spoke with my son and he too is very impressed by this.Although you did not actually produce the information you have made it available. Kudos!

I watched the whole thing!

thanks for posting it. 

"Stop the world, I want to get off!"  The scary thing is that the powers that be are so firmly entrenched in their power that there really isn't anything that you and I can do about it.  Any initiative or effort to change this system will be shouted down or simply ignored.

The facts of the matter are that most people (almost all people, myself included) are committed to participating in this rat race in order to provide the necessities of life.  Barter systems are grossly inefficient compared with fiat currency and if you want to pay your kid's tuition or put a roof over your head, you have very little choice on which system to utilize.

The unsustainability of this system is one of the reasons that I'm so afraid of the current "liquidity" crises.  I'm afraid that we may be reaching that point where the system breaks down and while it might not be fair that the bankers are making the kind of money that they're making, their system has provided for a certain amount of stability to our society.  When the breakdown happens, it's going to be ugly!

I don't know that the current situation is one that the fiat system can't weather, but I do think that the video is right that eventually, it will collapse.  Let there be one or two major pandemics, where the population shrinks considerably and you might see it happen.  Like I said, when it does, it won't be pretty!
