An Economy Built on Debt Papers

Gold is not just a piece of metal. It\\u2019s a cultural statement. It\\u2019s a message of power. Throughout history, we associated a strong cultural significance to gold.\\xa0

So when the gold standard was replaced by the Bretton-Woods system, we allowed the central bank to effectively seize control over the value of human work. They took all our gold, manipulated supply, controlled pricing, and consequently controlled society. It\\u2019s impossible to hold them accountable for their actions.

Today, we adopt an economic system that plays right into their hands. We live and work for US Dollars. The gold standard is now in the hands of the elite few. You receive payment in systems of currency they determine the value of.

Media\\u2019s Role in Shaping Bias

We cannot say for certain that the mainstream media outlets we are used to getting our information from, have not been backed by influential authorities who can influence monetary policy.

We\\u2019re supposed to have conscious control over most aspects of our lives. But in today\\u2019s society, our perspective is controlled by the outlets we choose to endorse. The nature of social media outlets is that they reinforce whatever biases we already have. This way, we are trapped in our own echo chambers and divided.

How Do We Value Our Hard Work?

The most valuable asset we can give, as human beings, is time. And if we are put to work for the rest of our lives, the institutions have already taken everything from us. We clock in and die out.

If we want things to change, then we need to start supporting platforms and systems that do not have a vested interest over our lives. It is imperative that we take control of our data and share our information on networks that treat us with respect.\\xa0

We should get to decide how our efforts are valued.
