http://lewrockwell.com/north/north1012.htmlThe purchase of government debt by a central bank in a fractional-reserve banking system is the basis of an unsuspected transfer of wealth that is inescapable in a world of monetary exchange. Through the purchase of debt by a bank, fiat money is injected into the economy. Wealth then moves to those market participants who gain early access to this newly created fiat money. Who loses? Those who gain access to this fiat money only later in the process, after the market effects of the increase of money have rippled through the economy. Anyone, As a means by which competition in legal money markets can be illustrated I offer the above quote. What happens if a lot of people decide to voluntarily send a portion of their power to one central collection point? This is an easy question with an easy to see answer, and there are many examples of such things happening in human existence. Power flows from many sources and power flows to one place, and power in one place grows more powerful, and power at all the many sources grow weaker, as more power flows from the sources, the sources grow weaker, and as more power flows to the one place, the one place grows more powerful. The power flow can resemble a pyramid. Many places at the bottom move power up one step. The next step moves power further up. Power reaches the one step at the top. The power flow chart is also measurable as an upside down pyramid, as the many sources of power have the least power at the bottom, where the measure of power is almost nothing, a minimum power supply, a measure of one, the least amount of power, and as power flows up from those many sources of one unit of power, the next step is a more powerful step, measuring two power units, and then upward there are four power units, and then 16, and then at the top there is one place where all the power stops flowing and that one place has enormous power at the top of the upside down pyramid. What happens to the power once it flows to the one place, and what happens if the power struggle is not yet built like a pyramid? What happens when the one place is only a storage place, not a place where power is allowed to flow to any other place, not yet constructing a pyramid, just many sources of power, where all the sources of power voluntarily send extra power to one place, and see this, and illustrate this, know it, measure it, envision it, and exemplify it, before it becomes something else, like a pyramid. What is that arrangement before it begins to flow out from the central source of collected power? Picture many dots on a piece of paper and each dot is one pixel in size, and each dot produces enough extra power to grow into the size of 2 dots, but before each dot can grow into three dots the second dot detaches from each dot and that second dot flows to the center of the paper. The dot in the center becomes 1 dot when one productive source has grown into the size of 2 pixels, the extra size disconnects from the source, the extra dot flows to the center and at the empty place in the center the first extra dot stops. A second, third, fourth, and then many extra dots are produced, detached from the source, travel from the source to the center, and the center single pixel becomes 2 pixels, then many, than many more, until the room around the center is less, and less, as the center grows larger and larger, as more extra power flows from the sources of power to the center. Who ever dreamed up the idea to begin producing more power than needed so as to send power from the source of power to some other place? Why did that idea become such a good idea, such a great idea, that very many people adopt the idea, employ the idea, and voluntarily participate in that process of producing extra power at the production source, sending extra power to a central location, and repeating that process over and over again? What is the purpose of employing that idea? Some examples help answer the question. 1. Insurance 2. Stock and bond sales 3. Taxation 4. Banking 5. Farming 6. Saving 7. Investing 9. Open source programing 10. Libraries 11. Education 12. Irrigation 13. Legal crime In the interest of brevity, economy, and so as to expedite the transfer of information from me, the source of this message, to anyone, I will choose two competitive examples of the power struggle from the list above so as to begin creating a scale of examples from best to worst, by some value measure, such as morality, which can be based upon the value of life, whereby life promoting things make those things more valuable and whereby life destroying things offer the opposite end of the value scale. 1. Insurance 13. legal Crime Many people earn more, by producing more, than needed, or wanted, or more than consumed, more than saved, more than invested in other things, so as to send a portion of their power to a central place that is called: 1. Insurance 2. Legal Crime The illustrated paper with dots on it help, so please get a piece of paper, or picture one in your mind, and start placing dots on the blank paper. Those are people. 10 dots will work, for now, and all the people in the world can be easy to see as more dots on more papers, drawn by someone else, somewhere else, the point is to point out how one process compares to the opposite process. You are one of the 10 dots on your paper. You almost become another dot, but you don't become another dot, you send one dot of power to the center of the paper. Your dot in the center of the paper is the first voluntary dot produced by you, traveling down the road from where your dot is on the paper, and that dot ends up being stored in the center of the paper, so as to begin creating one or the other of the two competitive things: 1. Insurance 2. Legal Crime Now jump ahead 10 years and draw a big black dot in the center of the paper as more and more people send more and more extra power to the center of the paper and some of the dots have to move from the center to clear places outside the center or those dots will be swallowed up by the growing power in the center of the paper. Copy that paper with the big black in the center, where 10 dots had to move to clear places outside the center black dot, and make two competitive illustrations of this idea whereby many sources of power send extra power to one central power. Now you have: 1. Insurance 2. Legal Crime On one you can write a title on the top of the page and it is: Insurance. Title the second, the copy, as: Legal Crime. By what calculation does the growing power in the center send power to the weakening powers around the center in the case of insurance? This is not too difficult to know. You may have suffered a broken leg, an accident at work, and you are now unable to earn enough to keep alive, you can no longer send extra power to the center, you can't even earn enough power to keep eating, not for awhile, and that is why you sent money to the center, you invested in insurance, for your own good, just in case. The calculation is as complex, or as simple as you agree to contribute, voluntarily, to that type of investment, if it is too complicated, look for one that is less complicated. Power flows in, from many, power flows out, to a few, and the center grows weaker, when someone suffers an accident, and the victim grows stronger, for having suffered an accident, and the whole business is based on a simple calculation, which can be fully automated, requiring no workers hired to crunch the numbers, or write the check, or haul the money, or store the money, or for any other expense, you earned enough to earn enough, simple, easy, and really, a no brainer, not rocket science, no need for an authorities permission, or say so, or regulation, or punishment, or anything other than steady transfers of power from many, and then according to the calculation agreed upon, power flows from the center back to the sources of power, on time, based upon the same exact calculation agreed upon before sending the power to the central location in the first place. Easy? How about one more thing? If the calculation is done well enough, then the center supply of power is almost nothing, and it can even be negative at times. It does not have to keep growing larger, ever. It is nothing but an agreement. If you can't grasp this in your mind, having the illustrations presented to you, you can ask questions, or you can depend upon the authorities for all your answers to vital questions, and they can let you eat cake too. If you have traveled this far, with me, and you have a two pieces of paper, one is titled Insurance, and the other is titled Legal Crime. One is one end of the scale, the other is on the other end of the scale. On that paper titled Legal Crime you have a growing black hole in the center, and it is designed to grow larger, and larger, and it is designed to wipe out all the free space, and it is designed to turn the white paper into nothing, it is designed to destroy everything, and you can see it happening if you look. The sources of power are made to send power to the central location and at the central location there is a power that determines the calculation that is used to employ the power collected, from all the sources, to the central location, and the calculation is even simpler than the insurance example. The central location uses a simple formula for deciding how the power at the central location will be spent, and it is simply used to keep the power flowing in that direction. That is it, and that is as easy to know as the most obvious visual example existing today. Here is the most obvious visual illustration of how Legal Crime is designed to work today: http://www.usdebtclock.org/ As soon as the connection between all the sources of power (the dots on the white paper) to the central location (the larger power in the center) is involuntary, that is the moment when that central location is no longer beneficial to the sources of power, at that very point in time and place, when the connection is no longer voluntary, that central power begins to grow "at the expense of" all the sources of power. Legal Crime is an involuntary association, it is designed to grow more powerful, at the expense of, all the sources of power, and it is as simple as that, and as they say: "the devil is in the details", and Legal Crime has three measurable methods by which the process is realized in time and space. 1. Deceive the targeted victims into sending power to the Legal Criminals, making the victims weaker, and making the legal criminals stronger. 2. Threaten the targeted victims with violence so as to keep the power flowing in that direction. 3. Execute violence upon the targeted victims so as to keep the power flowing in that direction. There you have, before you, a scale, and on one end of the scale is Insurance, and other the other end of the scale is Legal Crime, and power flows in both examples, and in both examples power flows from the sources of power to a central location, and at the central location the power grows, and in one case the central location never grows more powerful than any one of the sources of power, and in the other case the central location consumes all the power that can be produced by all of The Honest Productive People. Banking is a similar arrangement on that scale, and it is interesting to note how interest works in banking. To close this effort think, from this point, assuming that you have traveled to this point, what would be the process, and what would be the math, or the calculation, on an insurance policy called Legal Crime Insurance? Example: Suppose that one of the families of innocent victims in, say, The Waco Massacre, or in one of those three towers in New York, on Sept 11, 2001, had a Legal Crime Insurance Policy, what would be the calculation of power returned to that beneficiary if one of those family members had a Legal Crime Insurance Policy? Follow that through with me, please, with a hypothetical example. Suppose one third of the population of American, and we can call this hypothetical group The Honest Productive Americans, and we can suppose that that group started paying into The Legal Crime Insurance Policy, on a specific day. How about the day that U.S.S. Liberty was attacked by Legal Criminals June 8. 1967 http://www.gtr5.com/ Suppose that day was a day you remember as the day that One Hundred Million Honest Productive Americans began paying into an agreement, known as Legal Crime Insurance, and that pot of gold grew, and grew, from June 8 1967 until that day when one of the family members was slaughtered at Waco, just for an illustration of how insurance works, compared to how Legal Crime works. So, you have June 8 1967, the U.S.S. Liberty is attacked by Legal Criminals, and then One Hundred Million Honest Productive Americans start a Legal Crime Insurance Agreement, and all those people pay into that one central power, fund, until one person sends in a claim as their members of their family are slaughtered at Waco, or later, in New York. This event: http://www.public-action.com/SkyWriter/WacoMuseum/ From June 8 1967 to April 9 1996 One Hundred Million Honest Productive Americans send money to one fund whereby victims of Legal Crime earn benefits for having paid into that insurance policy. If you don't pay into it, you don't earn benefits; which is naturally known as a voluntary association, reasonably known, common sense knowledge, easy stuff. That is how that works. What is the opposite arrangement? What is the measure of Legal Crime? Your investment is used to reward mass murderers. Your investment is used to torture you, or your fellow members of the Honest Productive American group. Tax payers pay into an involuntary association so as to hire liars, torturers, and serial killers, and worse, to do what they do best, to someone else, so that tax payers can move further down the list of victims? Your investment is used so that serial killers earn a higher standard of living for doing things that make them ever so happy. Are you happy enough yet?
