Remaking Our World

This is something we can do, and that we must do. Rebuilding our economic, financial, legal and agricultural systems is a huge task, but we can and must do it. For some time we have been crying in our hearts for these changes, and the aspiration for change has been building. Now the underpinnings of collective desire and consensus are in place, and change will proceed rapidly in response. There will continue to be economic and financial upheaval, earth changes such as volcanos and earthquakes, and disruption in the supply lines of goods and services. These inevitable changes are the growing pains that we must go through to remake our world.

Here are some of the issues that must and will be addressed:

•         Better food. We need much more organic food and more people to grow it. Luckily, we have quite a few people without work, so we have the labor power to do it. We need to stop using petroleum-based pesticides and the GMO seeds that require them. This change will require people to use a greater percentage of their income for food. Luckily, people will also get more enjoyment from their food because it will be fresher and taste better. They’ll also get more enjoyment from life in general because their bodies will be healthier.

•         A better economic system. The interest-based system we use today is basically a Ponzi scheme. With the banking laws of today, when a person takes out a loan, the money to be lent is created from nothing. But the interest that will accrue on the loan is not also created. Because the money to pay the interest is never created, borrowers have to find a way to get the money out of the existing pool. In order for a borrower to win, someone else has to loose, and money becomes tighter and tighter. This is why our economy has to continually expand in order to avoid a recession. We need a system that allows lenders and banks to make a fair profit without creating an economy that needs to continually grow.

•        Strong local economies. Today’s world-wide banking system means that money moves rapidly out of local economies to wherever the most profit can be made. The rising price of gas will soon be creating incentives to supply the needs of each locality from the goods and services of that locality. We also need to put in place systems to keep local money flowing within the local economy. By doing so, we create more robust economies worldwide – ones that are not subject to every fluctuation throughout the globe.

•         Better governments. True equality for every person worldwide and transparent governments responsible to the people. This seems like a tall order, but we are seeing how the aspirations of people throughout the world are creating the conditions where work toward this goal is becoming possible.

We know, at least theoretically, that everything is created from energy. The unseen link is that energy is created from thought and aspiration. And therefore energy follows thought and aspiration and can be moved by thought and aspiration. It is our thoughts and human aspirations that are creating these changes for the benefit of us all.
