Competition in the Workplace and the Human Condition

Do you notice where you find yourself competing with your other fellow employees, because you can’t all ‘win’, you can’t all get the bonuses, and this puts you in a position where you’re against each other, instead of working together toward the common goal, you’re now working in separation for ‘potential rewards’. And the only reason this competition exists, is because there are these possibilities/opportunities to get more money, but not for everyone. That means, very simply, it’s either ‘You or Them’. So now your focus is distracted from the task at hand, and now focused on ‘beating everyone else’ to get to that prize. And for many people, this is not something that sits well, as most people don’t want to be against one another, but would much rather get along well and work together on things, but find oneself torn now between one’s own personal well-being/income and everyone else’s. In this, one will have to find whatever way one can to cope with or justify having to compete against one’s fellow man, like coming up with reasons like ‘why I deserve it more and they don’t’ and ‘I have to look out for myself/my family’.

What hasn’t been considered within this is the simple solution of giving to all equally, and giving enough that each and every individual can have a dignified life, the best quality life possible, where there is no worrying whether you will be able to get the healthcare you need, or the food you need, or adequate housing, education, etc.

If everyone gets the same support, competition will cease, because you won’t have to compete with others to get what you need and to have a dignified life. Then we can really focus on the tasks at hand and the productivity of humanity will not diminish, but will be of a higher quality, as when we work together on things, we are capable of so much more than when we’re all ‘on our own’ and having to work against each other.

What’s really incredible is the extent to which competition has been and is accepted as a ‘normal’ part of life, and it’s essentially forgotten that competition had to be conditioned in – we aren’t born with it. It’s something we learn through our family structures and in school, especially in sports for example, where winning is emphasized, and you’re separated into ‘teams’ instead of everyone being on the same ‘team’ and working together.

Some will argue that competition builds character, and it sure does – the question is, just what kind of character does competition create? The kind that has justified and accepted turning against one’s fellow man and seeking to ‘win’ no matter if it means someone else loses. And that is the very basis of our current economic system and our relationship toward/with it, in which we’ve accepted that only a few can ‘win’, while most everyone else has to ‘lose’, and never considering the option that everyone can win, and that if you winning means someone else losing, that is not really ‘winning’. The real way to win is to have a world where we’re actually supported to live in the best quality, and none are denied access to what we need here to live and thrive, that none are allowed to suffer for no good reason in order to make profits.

And it’s actually thought that using ‘incentive’ actually ‘increases productivity’, and you’ll have things like ‘quotas’ to meet at work, where what happens is this actually limits growth and productivity, because once you’ve met the quota, there’s no motivation then to go on any further, as your movement was dependent on that incentive. And where in the case of meeting a quota, the reward is usually actually the ‘avoidance of some form of punishment’, so your goal becomes totally removed from the actual task/job you’re doing. And that begs the question, why does what you’re doing require incentive to get you to do it? Is it not something you would do otherwise? So that really calls in to question the nature of what it is that we require incentive to do, and whether it is really the kind of jobs that are of benefit to ourselves and each other, and all of life here, or whether it’s jobs that only exist for the making of profits, without concern/regard for life?

See, we wouldn’t just naturally abuse ourselves and our home the earth and nature, but we had to be incentivized to do so, so that we won’t question what’s really being done and what are the actual consequences and outflows we’re creating, and why it is that we’re doing it, because we’ve been given a reason, it’s for a reward, which for many the ‘reward’ is literally one’s survival, and there is obviously no freedom in that. So it’s slavery, we’ve enslaved ourselves to/within this capitalist system where we must work within what’s available to us just to be able to survive, and thus there is really no free will in this reality, no ‘free choice’. Because not everyone can become, say, president of a country or a business. I mean, it’s obvious no starving child is ever going to be a wealthy business owner. And that even the majority of those in elite countries who are surviving in relative comfort, and living paycheck to paycheck, are not going to become world leaders or big-time CEO’s.

Obviously a system based on competition is not working, with most of the population living undignified lives, lacking even the most basic of needs, when there is plenty for all to live the best quality life. It’s as simple as no longer accepting a system that is based on us competing against one another, and instead one where the starting point principle is to work together, as the world we can create through cooperation is one in which no one starves. Where no one suffers from lack of clean drinking water, effective education, proper housing, or effective healthcare. I mean it really makes you wonder why haven’t we done this already and established an Equal Money System, so that we can give ourselves the best life possible, and All of us, not just a few with the most money in a system that doesn’t give enough to all, through which we’re allowing people, children to starve every day, when it can be prevented. Time to give ourselves the life we’ve always wished for – join us today at http://equalmoney.org.

Do we need an Equal Money System, what if we just stop spending Money?

There’s still many many people who haven’t yet come to understand how simply cutting down one’s spending and stopping spending money, isn’t going to lead to a solution. Because they are still looking at it from within an individual perspective within their personal experience, of being one of the elites in the world, who has money in the first place, to consider not spending. They’ve not yet considered/realized that for actual change that will have an actual impact on changing this, it’s required to consider every single human being on this planet. And their living situations and what options they have or don’t have currently. Because most of the world’s population has no options. It’s only those living in elite countries that have options.

Only 28% of the world’s population is considered middle class, as defined by those who spend between $10-$100 a day. 2% is wealthy, and 70% is poor. Thus it’s only a minority that the idea of ‘not spending money’ applies to. And for global change to take place and last, we would require all of the population to be in a position to work toward this change.

The vast majority of the world’s population, 70%,  are poor. Poor means having limited or no choice in how you live your life. It means having to take what is available to you. For example, there are people who live off of crabs that they can catch because that is what is available to them and they will starve otherwise. Thus, the poor, the majority of the population, are already spending very little to no money at all, and that hasn’t changed anything. So that’s a clear indicator right there, that not spending money isn’t a solution. Because many already aren’t, and the result is that their life is an absolute struggle, and thousands die every day because they couldn’t get that which they required to survive- food, shelter, water, proper medical care, effective education.

In terms of changing the very nature of existence here for all life, if  only 30%  can change that means fuck-all (excuse the term, but it’s quite apt here – unless you consider all, all is fucked), because there is still the vast majority of 70%. So all solutions must consider the options that everyone currently has or does not have. And currently 70% of the world’s population has no real options. Thus, that is the primary point that must be taken into account within any possible solution. That is the point of the Equal Money System. To give everyone the ability to actually move in this world, and not be limited to spending each moment trying to survive.  Before you can even consider changing the world or yourself, you have to have your basic needs met. The Equal Money System will give everyone guaranteed access to your needs, so that you are not busy every moment with survival, and can actually consider things beyond that.

Money is like the blood of our system. All parts of the body require blood flow to function properly. What would happen in a body when some parts of the body, who already had enough blood, started hoarding it their excess blood? Within a body which, within the design of capitalism,  already is deliberately not allowed to have enough blood flowing through it to support all parts effectively?

So, let’s look at what would happen if the middle class stops spending the money that they have available to spend – corporations providing the products we’d be buying less of will lose business and have to resort to even more drastic methods of making money, than is done currently. They’ll charge less for their products in the hope that more people will buy them. This means that the slave laborers manufacturing and producing the goods  that are sold in elite countries will be paid even less, as companies will have to cut costs in any way they can, as corporations are actually required by law to ensure a certain amount of profit for their shareholders, which is people of elite countries holding those shares, who demand a return for their investment into said company. Corporations that can’t make enough profit will go belly up and then the slave laborers will have no jobs and thus no income at all.

So already we can see that within this plan, the result is actually more suffering, more will have even less access to their needs. The abuse continues.

In the event of the current middle class no longer buying stuff, those that are currently in positions of power within the current system might take actions to change middle classes, raise up some poor people who would be happy to spend money to finally get what they need, and knock down the stingy middle class who has decided not to buy stuff anymore. This would be done through wars and reallocation of wealth/money. Because the goal of those who orchestrate such events, is always profit, thus whatever means necessary will be taken to continue making profit. Just look at the history of the U.S. for a perfect example. Before industrialization and mass producing of goods, the American population was buying enough of the goods that were produced, but once industrialization hit, now there was an excess of goods. So, the business owners wanted to continue selling these goods to make more profit, and the working class’s survival was linked to the businesses, as those were their jobs and how they got the money they needed to get by, and if those businesses went belly up or couldn’t sell as much, due to increase in competition between companies to sell their products, there would be cuts in order to maximize profits, and people would be laid off and no longer have an income to be able to get what they need. So the U.S. went to war with other countries like Puerto Rico and Panama and essentially took them over in order to set up military bases in those countries for the purpose of establishing and protecting trade routes where products could be shipped to other countries, to broaden the market for their surplus goods.

But that will likely not happen, because you simply won’t get everyone to stop spending money. Have a look at a prevalent mentality of those in the middle class, where you are defined by what and how much you own. This programming runs thick, it is programmed into children from a very early age to define oneself by consumerism, where you will be actually treated as less than if you don’t have all the latest products. Watch the documentary “Consuming Kids: Commercialization of Childhood” to see how this is done. This is why in order for us to change the world, we’re going to have to change ourselves, to ensure that the values we live by are not based in consumerism but on what is actually best for life. What will be best for humans, for nature, for the animals, for everything that is here. Instead of ignoring these things which we depend on to survive, about which I’ll go into more detail in another blog.

Thus you can see that until we change the very nature of the current profit-based system which we’ve accepted and allowed, no real change will be possible. And to do that we must first change ourselves and the values and limitations we’re living as. As long as we’re allowing life to be taken advantage of and abused for the sake of profits, the abuse and suffering will continue. That is why the Equal Money System is being developed, as a system that will actually be based on doing that which is best for life – not profit.

So how do we go about changing the system? When considering how to change something, you must first understand how it was created – you must get to the actual source of the manifestation. The current profit based system as it currently exists was created through the political system. Have a look at how much resistance there is for most people to get involved in politics. This is no accident. We’ve been led to believe that politics is either too boring, or too complex, or that solution must come through revolution and violence. Because politics is the tool through which we can actually bring effective change, and violence gives reason the respond with force, which the system has plenty of, thus violence is no option. The other tactic used to keep people from implementing real actual change, was to give people the idea that one can change the world according to what they buy or don’t buy. Effectively channeling one’s want to do something and make a change in this world, into consumerism, and away from politics. And this has been happily accepted, as it’s much easier to read a label that says ‘organic’ or ‘made from recycled materials’ than to actually make the effort to educate oneself and expand oneself and get involved in the system.

Thus, change that is of any benefit will not come from looking for individual solutions that the whole group cannot apply.  Effective change will not come from a minority of the earth’s population changing their spending habits. The change that come from that is from a personal individual self interest perspective, looking at improving one’s own experience while not considering the whole picture, and the consequences and outflows in the rest of the world. What’s required is that the human change themself, those that are in a position where one has enough financial stability that their needs are met and they have the option to educate themself and get involved in bringing about change, to stop accepting things the way they are, and actually become a participant in what is here as the current system, to take the necessary actions that will lead to real change. This is the place where we’re coming together to do just that, and that is why we are developing a new system, the Equal Money System, because we see what is actually required to bring real change, and we’re standing up to do it.

Do we need an Equal Money System or can’t we just share?

Here are some questions that were asked by someone on Facebook about the Equal Money System, and my responses. Have a look to get some perspective on how the Equal Money System will work:

SBC: Someone help me understand… why ANY MONEY at all ??? why not a world of bartering, good, skills, knowledge… in effect ‘sharing’ all the above so everyone has what is needed. I have lots to share or trade, never any real money left at the end of the month and I have goods I don’t need but often no money for goods I do need… so why a money system? Why Money? I am not ‘afraid’ of Equal anything if it means sharing… I just don’t understand, why money…. How many of you live on less than $700 a month?… I’ll await your reply.

Bartering requires a capital of goods, so that does not help those in poverty at all. Not everyone has access to education to get skills because they don’t have money. Money is the tool through which we get access to our needs and education, etc. thus money will be given to all so all is guaranteed access. If you can live without money it means you are still living within a system that is supporting you, otherwise you’d die. Much of the world’s population is not supported and they already do not use money because they do not have money and so they are busy starving to death and suffering due to lack of education and healthcare. Since we’re accepting and allowing a system where you require money to get your needs, then we give all money so all have equal have access, and none can be excluded. Money is thus the perfect tool to utilize to ensure that all get equal support, and that each individual has the ability to support themself and not be dependent on another for their survival.

SBC: that is why you share… you teach and give any abundance to those who need. Everyone has a gift even if they haven’t been polished by education. It starts somewhere… desire to learn, desire to grow. Everyone should have an oppotunity to find their inner desire, their gift… One can help and have -0- money, enchouragement is valuable. One can share skills, knowledge… it is free. Many people wish to share their talent and skills at no cost because it brings them joy. Giving of themselves is reward enough. Money means measurement. If you must measure everything, who decides? By who’s measurement is value of money given? What is worth something of value to you may not be to another. People value differently. To live equally the value of services will not be the same to all. Do you understand what I am saying?

We’ve become so brainwashed to believe that poverty just exists and that’s how it must be, it’s just a part of life, so then we think in terms of ‘charity for those in need’, not considering how/why poverty is created in the first place, not even even realizing that it is created and is not a ‘natural’ or ‘inherent’ thing that must be that way. The current system actually creates the poverty and lack. It’s within this realization that it becomes obvious to have a new system that does not create lack in the first place. The Equal Money System is thus designed to support everyone by giving everyone the means to support themself, thus there will be no poor. Helping/charity still accepts the poor as poor- with the Equal Money System no one will made to be poor in the first place.

Education is not a polish, it’s what gives one the ability to function in an effective way in this reality, the deleterious effects of a lack of education is tremendous. We’re not talking about a lack of school only, but within the family as well, where the whole family has no education from generation to generation, where they lack almost any practical understanding of how this physical reality works. For example doctors practiced blood-letting in the past when we had less understanding of how the physical human body operate, and many were killed.

Skills and knowledge are not free- to have skills and knowledge means you have been supported with the basic necessities like food, water- without those you’d be dead- no learning possible. Then there’s also the materials required to learn skills- those aren’t free, most goods are provided by slave labor- as those producing those goods have no choice but to work in poor conditions for insufficient pay to have a dignified life.

This is the point here- that not everyone has access to these things that some of us do and because it’s always been here for us we take it for granted to the extent that one does not even realize all that has gone into one’s life to get to where you are now, all the food and the slaves who produced it, your clothes, the buildings you’ve lived, worked, learned in, the water you’ve drank, the products you’ve used, the cars you drive, etc- not considering what it means to have literally nothing in this world, to be born in a place where there is no system of life support and every day is a struggle to survive, and thousands die everyday. People in those situations don’t have the option to share anything- they don’t have anything.

To suggest that the solution is for those that have to share, is accepting the poverty to exist, and making their survival or wellbeing dependent on whether or not others share – is that how you’d like your quality of life, or whether you even survive or not, to be determined, where you have no choice, no option, no power or ability to change your life? When instead we can have a system that simply supports everyone in the first place, so no one’s survival or quality of life is unguaranteed, where you wonder from day to day how or if you’re going to survive and make it to the next moment. And what for? Just to be in a constant state of trying to survive? No one wants to live that way, so why are we allowing a system that forces beings into this type of existence?

Measurement is a cool practical tool for working within a physical reality.  We have already decided the value of money- we use money everyday according to the values that have been set by those we’ve elected into the system to make those decisions. Many of us are not part of the process but simply accept how it’s being done currently, and currently money is being valued in the way that is most effective for making profits, not for supporting life. This is what we change within an Equal Money System, where money becomes the tool that it’s supposed to be – to facilitate distribution of needs to where they’re needed. The ‘value’ will be determined by what does this most effectively. Thus, it’s really irrelevant what the ‘value’ is, as it goes according to what will support all life to be the best possible in all ways.

The value of services is the same to all- all need food, water, shelter, healthcare, etc. For items that aren’t needs but are cool to have like a computer for example, in a system where profit is not the goal and items are made to last, not made to become obsolete rapidly to maximize profits, we can have a computer for everyone, we can have a car for everyone, etc. If you don’t want a car, then you won’t have one. We have the capability and technology and resources to do this. We don’t have the resources to support our current economy that’s based on overproduction of inferior goods for profits. Thus all have access to what is ‘valued’ in the context of what is needed for survival, and that which makes life practical and fun. Thus the ‘value’ becomes life itself, because only life has value – life meaning real life where all are able to live and thrive in a way that’s best for all and none are left out, no longer enslaved to a system. Any other ‘value’ is not real, it’s a mental make-believe created to make profit.

We are all the ‘greedy bastards‘ as we’ve accepted and allowed the current system to exist and continue to exist, while it enslaves so many and causes so much suffering. Thus it’s each and every one of us that must change, to stop allowing this. Obviously those in power don’t do everything by themselves, it’s all of us together creating this world, thus we have to actually stand up and stand together to stop the hell that we’re creating and work toward creating a world where all are supported to live and thrive to fullest potential.

Equal Money FAQ – Money isn’t everything?

Money isn’t everything? Yes and no. In this current system- money is everything- without money, you literally have nothing, not even the ability to live and breathe here, as your physical body requires support and without money, you have no access to that support, and you die. But life shouldn’t be all about money, which it is because not all are guaranteed enough money to have access to their needs, and for the majority of humanity, most of one’s time is spent doing whatever one can to get the money that is needed. Life has become ‘all about the money’ and not about actually living.

Many people will use this phrase however, as an excuse to not change the current system and to attack the Equal Money System, which uses money, saying “Money isn’t everything.” But obviously they’ve missed the point that money has become everything, as explained above. They also haven’t understood that ‘money’ in the Equal Money System, will not be the same as what money is today, as it will be simply a tool for facilitating the movement of resources to where it’s needed, and not have any intrinsic value in itself. Thus money will no longer be a thing that can be abused for the sake of profits at the expense of others. Since everyone will have the necessary money they require to acquire their needs, people’s lives will no longer be consumed by the need to find ways to acquire money- thus the Equal Money System will effectively make it so that money isn’t everything. Because obviously, that’s not all life should be about. Life should be about living to our fullest potential without allowing abuse in any way.

In order for us to be able to live as though ‘money isn’t everything’- we have to change how we value money so that indeed, it isn’t everything. In the Equal Money System money will become the tool which it was always ‘meant’ to be, but allowed to be abused at our expense, at the expense of life. Until we change our system to one of life support rather than one controlled by profit and greed, we’ll continue to be ruled by money and the pursuit of it and never really be able to live and be what we could be- the real custodians of the earth, our home, and give ourselves a life in which we’re free to live in the way that all life benefits equally.

Equal Money FAQ – What happens to the clairvoyants and psychics?

Clairvoyants and psychics exist mostly today as jobs, in which a person is trying to make money in order to survive. So they learn and train themselves in how to act as a clairvoyant or psychic, and then perform this act in order to get paid. Just like most of us in this current system- we had to learn to do something that we could possibly get paid for. Thus, in the Equal Money System, jobs that were being done just for the sake of trying to earn some money from someone by putting on an act, or by making them think you can apparently do something for them like supposedly tell them their future, we’ll no longer be driven to do just to try to survive, because our survival will be guaranteed within the Equal Money System.

Most of the reason people go to psychics and pay them to ‘tell their fortune‘, is because they want to know what the future holds for them- why? Because their future is not guaranteed. You’re not guaranteed security, so it’s a mystery what’ll happen to you- and either you’re going to succeed, or you’re going to fail. And people want to know, and so pay money to others whom they believe can tell them. Since in an Equal Money System your future is guaranteed for your whole life until you die, there is no mystery of how well you’ll be doing- as you’ll already know you’ll be doing the best as can be. You’ll have all you need and access to everything necessary to have the best life possible, thus there’ll be no worry, no fear, no concern of what one might or might not suffer in the future, like there is now. Where if you have an accident that leaves you severely injured, you have no guarantee you’ll get the medical attention you require, or whether you’re business that you’re in debt for is going to succeed or be a failure. None of that will be relevant as your survival and well being and access to your needs will be secure.

Thus those with jobs as clairvoyants or psychics won’t be able to get work anymore as clairvoyants and psychics, and they won’t need to. They can spend their time how they’d like and not having to put on an act to try and make some money to survive. People then will come to realize that psychics and clairvoyants aren’t real or magical or have any powers or extra abilities in any sense, as psychics and clairvoyants will no longer to perpetuate that myth for the sake of their job security. Psychics and clairvoyants have simply developed their ability to read patterns, something that anyone could develop if they chose. Thus, in an Equal Money System, clairvoyants and psychics will cease to exist, as they’ll simply no longer be relevant in any way, and no one will want to deceive others if they don’t have to, and if there’s nothing to gain from it, since they already have everything anyway.

Will Equal Money be actual physical money or will it be like a bank card and why?

In the Equal Money System, ‘money’ is going to be digital for several reasons. One reason being that digital money is will have very little impact on the environment, compared to paper and metal money which require much resources and labor to create. For digital money, much is already in place. as many already utilize digital money on a regular basis- in the form of bank cards for example.

We’ll just need to make sure that all people everywhere have access, and once the equipment is in place, that’s all that require to be done- whereas paper and metal money require to be repeatedly created as they deteriorate or get lost. The equipment needed for a digital money system can be created to last much longer than the physical forms of money. Thus digital money will be much easier on the environment and require less human labor.

Another reason we’ll have digital money is that it is much easier to ensure there is no abuse- it’s much more difficult to steal, because it’s traceable- when a bank card or credit card gets stolen, for example, you can report it stolen and whoever has stolen it will not be able to use it. You’ll be able to get a replacement and suffer no interruption. Whereas, with paper/metal money, there is very little, if anything, you can do if it gets stolen- it can’t be traced and you can’t stop another from using it. Thus a digital money makes sense in order to prevent abuse, and ensure one’s access to their needs always.

Since money in an Equal Money System is only for the allocation of needs, and you are always given enough as needed, there is no need to save it. In fact, saving it would be a problem- as the purpose of it is to exist only for the moment that it’s required to facilitate a ‘purchase’ of one’s needs. Within the current money system, money exists as a commodity in and of itself, which means it’s a thing which can be horded and bought and sold in order to take advantage of inequalities of value in the system to make a profit- but where value is taken from, value is lost- thus this is an abuse as it creates lack where the value has been taken from- thus this way of ‘transference of value’ so to speak, will not be allowed, and a digital money will make sense, to ensure there is no hoarding.

It literally wouldn’t make sense to hoard it anyway, as you always have enough for what you need, and it’s only used for your needs. Thus you’d only be able to get more of your needs, but you can only utilize so much of that, so it wouldn’t make sense to have any excess. You’re not going to be able to sell it to anyone to try to make a profit, because everyone will already have enough to purchase their needs themself, at the same rate as everyone else. Thus, there’s no desire to have a physical currency, as there’s no desire to save it or have something to physically ‘hold onto’.

The whole point of the Equal Money System is to have your life guaranteed at all times for your whole life, for everyone. Thus the need to save money literally becomes extinct.

Having a digital money is also more convenient to carry around or keep track of, as it’s always only one item you need to have, just like a bank card, rather than a wad of cash, or pocket full of change.

Part of the reason some prefer cash these days, is because they like the anonymity- but there is no need for anonymity unless you are wanting to do something abusive and get away with it. This will come to an end in Equal Money, because digital money is traceable, and actually the data can be used as feedback to utilize in working out system logistics- much like it’s used today, except it won’t be used from a starting point of making the most profits possible, in disregard to life. I mean, those that fear that such information will be used to abuse, must realize that that is what happens in the current profit based system already- and the Equal Money System will effectively end that- as we will have oversight in everything we do in order to make sure no abuse is allowed to occur.

American History Exposed: Industrialization

.

I’ve been learning just recently in my American History class about the period we call “Industrialization”, which was basically when we started developing and using machinery to do labor, back in the 1880’s or so. Or rather, when a few men who had money invested in some machines and set up companies where they hired workers and paid them an hourly wage to work these machines, in factories.

In their greed, they wanted to pay the workers as little as possible and had no real concern for the conditions that the workers had to work in, and this eventually led to what we call ‘Strikes’ and then ‘Unions’ were formed to fight the owners for rights for the workers, and through the strikes and revolts that took place, labor laws were created.

Here is a quote from my American History textbook, speaking about how after the first strikes that occurred by railroad workers, armories were built to protect from attacks from strikers and rioters, because strikers had looted and burned buildings.

.

“The need for armories signified the paradox that an industrial economy celebrated for its dynamism was also an economy brutally indifferent to the many who fell by the wayside and hence an economy that was never secure, never free of social conflict.”

.

So you can see the implication here is that if some are not allowed to ‘fall by the wayside’, then there will Not be Social Conflict. It really is that simple. The strikers were eventually put down by force by federal troops that were brought in. So here is a perfect example of what happens when you riot, and why it doesn’t work. Because the wealthy can buy troops to Force you, and you can’t. And since the wealthy make their money from the system as it is, that is what they will use their money to protect.

So if you put yourself in the way of commerce- you’re asking for it and you shall receive. Just look at history all over the world- no wait, that’s right, you can see this exact scenario taking place right this very moment, in Libya, Egypt, Yemen, etc. This Rash of Rioting and Protesting that’s been spreading like a Virus has been met with what? Force. Killing. This is no solution.

For all the Revolutions that’s taken place, there is more dying and suffering today than ever. So the solution is obviously not throwing sticks and stones at the government and saying ‘I don’t like you, I want a new Mommy’.

.

Fascinating that to this day, we still have not understood and realized that this method of laboring by force and separation/superiority is extremely ineffective, and of course most workers are unsatisfied with the work situations, worldwide, and the best labor does not come from people unsatisfied with what they’re doing.

But really, those who are Profiting are considering it from a perspective of, ‘how much work can I get out of these people while having them still accept and allow me to direct what is produced in my own favor?’ For them, it is about balancing the ‘unrest’ while getting as much production as they can. Quite Absurd.

Quite ridiculous, in fact, that we still allow it to continue this way, where a very few people make most of the profit of the companies which the many provide the labor for, for significantly less pay, and consideration of their well-being only so far as the law requires and is enforced.

.

What’s required is that those of us who can, do what we can to learn how this current system works, so that we can infiltrate this system from within, because like I said before, if the system thinks you are a threat to it, it will squash you like a little bug, and that’s the end of you, and the system goes on, in utter disregard of Life.

.

Therefore, the only shot we have at this, is to infiltrate- to become the system, so we can stand as the system, and purify it from within. It is much like the immune system within the human physical body- if the immune system identifies you as a virus- it goes into ‘red alert’ and will raise its army to take you down. However, there are pathogens that adapt and manage to go undetected by the immune system, and thus they are allowed to enter unscathed and unmolested. So there you see the solution, in a way, is right here within ourselves, within our cells, haha.

.

Stand up, learn the system, become the change, be part of the solution. Those who want to riot are looking for a ‘quick fix’, but there is no quick fix for the mess we have created here, unfortunately, and it only gets bigger, so better to get started and not hesitate. Join Desteni and participate with finding solutions to the problems we face, and be a part of the most Radical Change to ever happen in Existence.

Take part in the Desteni-I-Process where you will get life-coaching that will prepare you to be a Leader in this World so you are ready when the Time comes, to implement a new system, the Equal Money System, wherein All will be considered and No One left out, and there will be no more need to fight for rights because all our rights will already be Supported, there will be no Less and More, everyone will be ‘Equally More’ and we will All live like Millionaires.

Exposing the Inequality in the U.S. Government – The Fifteenth Amendment

The Fifteenth Amendment states that: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not bedenied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.”

.

It did not say: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by anyone, for any reason or on any basis, whatsoever.”

.

Thus, the Fifteenth Amendment was not created to unconditionally protect everyone’s right to vote. For example, ‘poll taxes’ could be placed, which required one to pay to vote, thus this was used as a tactic to keep out those who could not afford to pay, such as those who are poor and minorities.

.

.

The right to vote should be an equal right to everyone, everywhere.The restriction of voting rights has alway sbeen done out of self interest of those ‘in control’ wanting to remain in positions of power and ‘privilege’ at the expense of others, which is, of course, unacceptable. It also is quite stupid, when one consider that to attempt to ‘suppress’ others, is only going to result in outbursts, such as the recent riots have shown. I we simply stop suppressing and oppressing, and establish equal living for all to have a dignified life, everyone will be satisfied, and there will be no outbursts, no fighting, rebelling, etc. Simple Common Sense. Investigate Equal Money – it’s the Key to Peace on Earth.
