Kako sistem spremeniti? Je sploh možno? Je sploh potrebno?

No debtor is an island, paying interest all alone. Everybody pays the cost of interest,even those who do not borrow directly. Interest costs are included in the price of everything we buy, whether the goods or services are provided by the businesssector or the government.

The production of whatever we buy must be financed in some way, and interest is the cost of using financial capital. Margrit gives examples that show the percentage of the costs that go to pay interest on capital. Though her examples are drawn from her native Germany, it is clear that the pattern would be similar for all industrial nations, since their monetary and financial structures are all basically the same.

Kennedy shows that the costs of interest on capital in the 1980s, as a percentage
of the fees paid by users, were 12% for garbage collection, 38% for
water, 47% for sewers, and a whopping 77% of rents paid for public housing.


She also compares the interest paid and the interest gained (as income) for the population of what were then West German households divided into ten diff e re n t
income groups of equal size. This comparison indicates, as expected, that the
lower income groups, because they tended to be net debtors, paid much more
interest on their debts than they gained in interest on their investments.

Indeed,the 80% of households having lower incomes, on average, paid more interest on
their debts than they gained in interest on their investments. The highest 10%
gained about twice as much interest as they paid, and the richest of those gained
progressively more.

Lending money at interest, either directly or through financial intermediaries,
is one of the primary mechanisms by which the rich get richer and the poor get
poorer.

EKONOMIJA -ali kako biti svoboden

Presunljive in poučne teme naše sedanjosti.

Dober dokumentarec - The Trap od Adama Curtisa

Prvi del: "Fuck You Buddy"
1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6

Drugi del: "The Lonely Robot" 2

Tretji del: "We Will Force You To Be Free" 3 4 5 6 7 8

Če se svoboda res skriva v fiziki ali biologiji, potem je redukcija življenja neizogibna - vsaka znanost je redukcionaistična v svojem bistvu. Ker drugače je ne bi rabili, imeli bi samo religijo.

Kot kaže se vse konča pri začetku - pri filozofiji. No, ali pa pri denarju. Zanimivi linki za splošno izobraževanje - Money as debt

Podoben, vendar daljši in starejši dokumentarec je The money masters -how international bankers gained control of America.
In še avstrijska ORF radijska oddaja o denarju in knjiga o denarju Tobiasa Plettenbacherja: Neues Geld Neue Welt.

Podobno C2C koncept - zopet nek konstrukt, ampak ok.
