Money is power? It seems the slaves are emulating Ole Massa.
All this talk about how to become one of the 1% who are economically oppressing everybody else. It is enlightening in that it reveals that Europeans of 'noble' bloodlines are not the only mortals harboring enough egoic greed to enslave 99% of the rest of humanity. What the current 1% have on the rest of you wannabes is that they have been at it longer and have become quite good at suppressing the godliness they were incarnated with in favor of the selfish desires of Ego to seek what me likes and to avoid what me abhors.
Are you sure that is who you want to become?
What our world needs is equitable distribution of the wealth of the planet, not a few more power players in the Money Game.
Money is designed, purposefully, to be a game of musical chairs where the 1% who end up with the most money when the music stops playing win.
Money --- be it based on currency, gold, or silver --- is still a game. The 1% are winning because they enforce rigid control over the source of the currency, gold, and/or silver. To hold onto that control requires pure devilish intent --- an unfaltering commitment to get mines regardless of who you have to hurt, regardless of what demonic strategies you have to deploy.
Are you sure that is who you wanna be?
There is another Way --- a saner, wiser, Way --- to Peace, Peace, Peace.
