my goodness ! How will you cope?
your whole life is based on borrowing, but that can’t be right can it?
when you were born you weren’t told about this were you?
you weren’t told that you were here to work, to pay taxes, to borrow money to live, to buy a house, to borrow money to furnish it, to keep paying and paying until you die, and then whatever you leave in your will will be taxed!
Well, fret no more.
the new council of elders who now manages the finances of the world to benefit all people of the world has now decided that banks, credit card , and mortgage companies are doing nothing to benefit the world, and are merely lining their own pockets for their own benefit, and hence should be outlawed.
from today onwards, all debts are cancelled.
from today onwards you the people of the world have to take personal responsibility and stop asking others to help you
You are free of debt but what you do with that freedom is up to you.
you now own the land you have been paying for.
you now own the goods you bought on credit
THE CAVEAT
from today onwards you must help others not just yourself. if someone is suffering you must help them otherwise all your assets and cash will be forfeited!
The flipside
of course .. this idea isn’t workable and will cause chaos!
Why? Because the human mind has been wired to think of self interest only, and when self interest is in play, so is greed, and greedy people will do anything to satisfy the greed…
so why should we help people who have chosen to borrow money to buy a new télévision or smartphone or bigger house, or a new electric car?
why shouldn’t people who have borrowed pay back?
the answer is… of course they should!
or maybe the state should control everything to make sure everyone has everything as long as they conform and pay taxes …
maybe the rich should help the poor ! But there again why should they?
or maybe there is a different way…
a way which places humans on a par with every other species, where humans realise they don’t need any of this stuff…
no permanent homes, no phones, no corporations, no taxes, no governments, no money, ni industrial food…
“what? Live as cavemen?” says you! “No way!”
but if we want to evolve as a species and become a truly civilised species we need to take a great leap into the unknown, and try new things, every minute of the day…
