The Road to War The Ukraine War demonstrated that treaties and diplomacy can fail. And that was not the first time. So, can there ever be world peace, and what are the requirements?

Every Order Needs a Story Every social order needs a story, and to protect the social order, the elites use propaganda. Every story contains falsehoods, and so does the liberal story that underpins our current order. The alternatives are often worse. But the liberal story is falling apart, so we may need a new powerful story we can believe in.

A tale of two economic forces Negative interest may be here to stay. Why? That is a tale of two economic forces: capitalist spirit and time preference. They are major drivers of wealth inequality. The supply of capital and money is overwelming demand.

In the future there will be no interest on money Interest on money causes financial instability and contributes to economic cycles. Banning interest on money causes problems because interest on money also reflects the return on capital. The increased economic efficiency of such an arrangement ensures that there will be no interest on money in the future.

The scheme generates employment and ends financial slavery. Governments have banned it because it is a threat to the financial system.

Conversion plan to the natural money financial system In a previous article I outlined the natural money economic system that is far more efficient than the current economic system. This system will get the economy out of depression in a short time and will generate constant economic growth at maximum potential. In this article I will outline the conversion from the current system to the natural money economic system.

A far more efficient economic system is possible 12 steps to freedom and wealth If an economic system is more efficient, it does not matter what I think or what anyone else thinks. It will be implemented as soon as the knowledge is there. Competition and market forces will then replace the current system. The only question is: Is this theory correct or is it not? I am quite sure it is correct.
