#121: Some Riegel Quotes and The Proposal

First of all, E C Riegel understood that we all live in a prison, an economic prison that is run by illegitimate powers. How few people out there accept this reality? We can state with certainty that the amount of one's money is equal to the amount of freedom one has. If one imagines for one second that freedom without money is possible, such a one is deceived by the deceivers into believing that freedom has nothing to do with the money one uses or who issues it. Wrong! If 1% own 93% of all the present money, how are the 99% even remotely free? We recall that to us freedom is not having to ask anyone's permission for actions to work, to produce, to create services, products, and to sell those products, one's own labor, etc. 

I realized after posting this that Riegal's analogy and its use of Samson was very unfortunate. Samson after all killed himself when he brought down the temple of the Philistines. So the difference between us and Sampson is that we do nothing to bring down the temples of the Philistines who enslaved us. We merely walk out from under THEM and THEIR temples and begin with our own institutions and our own money. 
 
When man has mastered money he shall have mastered not only his economic problem of prosperity but also his political problem, for he will see that money has no place in state functions, and, the money power being entirely in his own hands, he will easily master the state and clearly define its services. Thus money must be seen as the means of mastery of all economic and political problems. Until we have mastered money we shall not master any of our problems. Not money, but a false money system, is the root of all evil.

As we continue to say, present day politics has nothing to do with economic freedom. Nothing. Because all THEIR money, though it functions as money, is illegitimate to begin with, as Riegel will shortly point out. Without we ourselves being the issuers of our own money, we have no role in the present ordering of any state functions. THEIR money and the lusts therefrom are all the root of all evil, not money itself or having it our way, which should have long been the case, except we have been ignorant of the subject for literally thousands of years.

As long as we cling to the superstition that we must look to government for money supply, instead of requiring it to look to us, just so long must we remain the subjects of government and it is vain to follow this or that policy or party or ism in the hope of salvation. We can control government and our own destiny only through our money power and until we exert that power it is useless for us to debate the pros and cons of political programs.

Understood? It's not your money, it's THEIRS. Until all state business is conducted using OUR money, we have absolutely no control or command over any state whatsoever! There is no debate possible on this subject. None!

When government is invested with money power it rises above the citizen and under the profession of protecting him may actually constitute the greatest threat to his well-being and safety. The power which control of the money system gives to government to interfere in and direct and even take the life of the individual should not exist on this earth. No man or group of men is warranted in holding this terrible power over fellow men.

But THEY do presently have it. We have identified it as law, which is FORCE. Law can be misguided and FORCE wrongfully exercised. But behind it all is THEIR money, which is all illegitimate and prone to fail. There is no remedy for this situation except to let THEM and THEIR system run its course to its inevitable demise. It's already happened many times in history and is going on right now everywhere. THEIR system is doomed entirely due to its illegitimacy and there are laws and FORCE behind THEIR eventual failure as well, because THEY have continually defied many laws which have FORCE behind them as deadly as gravity when defied. What have we always said? It's time to move out from under THEM and away from THEM until THEY finally fail and THEIR blood soaked illegitimate STOLEN FIAT money is no more.

Money is an instrumentality of the profit motive and must be issued and backed only by private enterprisers. Economic and political perversities are inescapable while government is admitted to money power. Since all national governments have, up to the present, been money issuing powers we may justly attribute all the economic and political ills of mankind to this single error.

A moment here to discuss the profit motive. Profit = a financial gain, especially the difference between the amount earned and the amount spent in buying, operating, or producing something. Therefore without profit or the desire to earn a profit, there are no legitimate businesses anywhere. Understood? Those who believe that anything is possible without profit are or should be rudely thrust out of any business and any arguments concerning business, as the stupid asses of Marxism, the weaponized ideology of class hate that was started by the elites to conquer utterly the rest of the world and subject it to THEIR rule. Notice that Riegel identifies the money issuing power of governments as responsible for all the economic problems we face. We wholeheartedly agree, which is why playing games within THEIR system to make more of THEIR money only makes matters worse.

Money power means budget power and it is folly to imagine that the citizen can control government unless he can control its budget.

So we the people taking any measure of control or command over our governments would imply that any and all money they get to spend must come directly from us, not as presently as borrowed by governments from banks and paid back by endless taxes to these banks plus interest which is always stolen value from us since all interest must come from money that was never issued, thus guaranteeing that there will never be anywhere near enough money. 

Until we realize that our money power is our sovereign power we cannot act as sovereigns.

Sovereignty has been a hot topic among patriots for years, but it has absolutely no meaning at all without we the people issuing our own money. We can't even begin to imagine what each of us as sovereign people amounts to because as we have seen everywhere revealed around the world, the degree to which people are still subject to illegitimate uses of FORCE, privation, slavery, etc.

To rail and rant against tyranny is to manifest inferiority, for there is no tyranny but ignorance; to be conscious of one's powers is to lose consciousness of tyranny. Self government is not a remote aim. It is an intimate and inescapable fact. To govern oneself is a natural imperative, and all tyranny is the miscarriage of self government. The first requisite of freedom is to accept responsibility for the lack of it.

Railing against tyranny is futile if the tyrant has sufficient FORCE to crush any opposition, as has been demonstrated and will be demonstrated until people by the tens of millions finally say NO MORE and pull out and away from THEM. Who are THEY again? Broadly speaking, THEY are globalists, bankers, elites, technocrats, satanists, pederasts, scribes and Pharisees. Yes, the two last groups certainly still exist.

If the government were obliged to come to the people for money instead of vice-versa, the people would keep government under control and operate their economy satisfactorily with prosperity and peace resulting. The peoples of the nations do not make war. For them peace is the natural and permanent order. Wars are planned and perpetrated by politicians and their diplomats; and the money power of government is the means by which the people are maneuvered into wars.

Yes, we have stated many times that most people live under the reasonable expectation of continuing peace. We have also stated that most people are very well aware of the difference between sanity and insanity and most regard war mongering as insanity and we do not require any so called mental health profesisonals to point out the difference to us. 

Money can be issued only in the act of buying, and can be backed only in the act of selling. Any buyer who is also a seller is qualified to be a money issuer. Government, because it is not and should not be a seller, is not qualified to be a money issuer.

Since only buyers can issue legitimate money, and it is only backed by what it buys, we have made it clear that only those buying their employment are legitimate money issuers and that whatever work they contribute backs any money they issue. The proposal recognizes this as Labor Contracts. This blog is right now replete with details.

As has been stated, the purpose of money is to split barter into two parts so that the seller is free to find his source of supply later and elsewhere. This is the sole purpose of money. Any effort to use money to serve another purpose is perversive; and this statement condemns the entire managed money philosophy.

It further and forthwith condemns any and all commodities functioning as money, so the economists are dead wrong about money being in any sense a holder of value. That's an idea that only appeals to money lenders and the present system. It's also why all cryptocurrencies are junk money and never to be trusted.

Money power cannot be separated from democratic power without miscarriage and ensuing frustration - political and economic. Democracy implies the sovereignty of man; and, since man cannot be sovereign without the money power, there can not be democracy under the political money system.

Understood? To E C Riegel, any ideas concerning democracy were associated with sovereignty of the individual, which is impossible under the present system. Riegel did not advocate any political activism whatsoever. He perhaps thought that some of the powers that be would see things his way and attempt to bring monetary freedom about using some of THEIR people and institutions. We know far better now. The only thing we want from THEM is ultimately to be rid of THEM. The only way to do that, in the United States, is to exercise our 1^st Amendment rights, NOT to speak with whomever we choose, NOT to associate with whomever we choose and to publish whatever we please NOT for THEM to censor or otherwise criticize anything we do or plan to do. The message is “come out of her, my people” not to sit down with our enemies and seek any compromise with THEM.

Meanwhile, we are grateful for our blessings at this time of year and wish any and all who are with us a very happy Thanksgiving.

#0: The Next Massive Disclosure Will Shock The World -- John Paul Rice

 The Next Massive Disclosure Will Shock The World -- John Paul Rice

[10/16/20: ATTENTION LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.  An instance of infamy that I will leave up here anyway.  It was never YOU Tube.  It was always THEM Tube.  Just as THEIR money is never really your money.  The report referenced here is no longer available because the OWNERS of the platform have decided to censor the contents and deliberately block any site THEY determine, for whatever reasons.  THEY are not interested in truth, THEY would prefer that you accept THEIR lies.  So be it.  I have not checked, but there may indeed be many other articles referenced by this blog which are no longer available for the same reasons.  All THEY have done is to prove THEIR deceit, conceit and fraud and it will catch up to THEM.  Perhaps this channel, the SGT Report, will return, perhaps not.  This is war by other means, a war to the death; THEIRS.  We easily make the prediction that these actions will result in the demise of YOUTube, Facebook and possibly even Google.  Be seeing you.]

The story under all other stories exposes other dimensions that impact directly upon the reasons and efforts required to establish the means to issue our own money separate from THEIR money and all THEIR institutions.  The message is to "come out of her, my people" not to compromise in any way, shape or form with those who have always been working against us.

#57.21: Perspective - The wider social view

You mentioned a dynamic, that narcissists attract predators. Would you say President Trump is a narcissist who has attracted predators? Another presidential hopeful who has caught my eye is Mr. Steyer, who seems to be an extreme narcissist, running as a charismatic billionaire outsider trying to take on the system. A populist platform. If this trend continues further, of more and more extreme narcissists being presidents of the USA, would you say the USA is being preyed upon? Has it always been so, or is it building to something more extreme? I appreciate any insight you can provide. 

Ok, narcissism is an itch with Narcissus, a fictional archetypal character who drowned from viewing his own reflection in a still stream and dove in after it. The character is drowned by his excessive self love. A narcissist would be a person who has an excessive interest in or admiration of themselves.

Psychology associates selfishness, involving a sense of entitlement, a lack of empathy, and a need for admiration, as characterizing a narcissist personality type. Psychoanalysis associates self-centeredness arising from failure to distinguish the self from external objects, either in very young babies or as a feature of a narcissist mental disorder. This last professional group associates this trait with very young babies! Remember that one of our characterizations of ruling elites is as savage babies. Yes, assuredly we are accusing THEM of narcissism, every last one of THEM. Recall our handy usage of THEM = globalists, bankers, elitists, technocrats, satanists, pederasts, scribes and Pharisees.

Origin of the term; early 19th century: via Latin from the Greek name Narkissos (see Narcissus) + -ism. (the itch) So this is a relatively recent term. Consider all the commercial implications upon society since the appearance of this word only 200 years ago. The other terms in common usage, socialism, capitalism, etc. are also fairly new. Remember we said that socialism and capitalism were invented by the same people at or about the time these words first started appearing in print around 200 years ago.

You asked whether President Trump is a narcissist who has attracted predators and you mentioned Tom Steyer. Whether either of them is or is not a narcissist and therefore subject to predation by predator sociopaths, might be irrelevant in the larger scheme of things. It's political. It involves THEM and their doomed system.

Remember folks, THEIR system will fail. It's way too debt heavy. It's all mostly stolen fiat currency; THEY have taken OUR WILL (fiat) away from us and made the issue of money THEIR illicit business to enslave the world with usury, the demand back of that which was never issued (the famous 11^th marble). Our message has remained the same. There is no political solution to the attainment of monetary independence. None whatsoever. Oh, and what exactly do we mean by Pharisees? Political parties of all kinds are Pharisees, ok?

It's necessary to reiterate that narcissism has been sold to “the masses” as attractive, acceptable, desirable, through THEIR PAID entertainers. So it's not just political leaders who may be characterized as narcissists, it's the great bulk of advanced societies that have been turned from self reliance, real goods and services and natural reality, to anything NEW, anything fake, anything requiring a small fee be paid to inventors, or most likely to those who bought or stole patents (intellectual property). Along with it has arisen waves of entitlement, a general lack of empathy, a supersized usually phony need for excessive admiration, etc. Note how all the focus of attention on self esteem figures into it. 

We can learn something from whatever this is, by greatly expanding our view to the entire national society, the entire present world society in fact. What we will see, if we are honest observers, is that narcissism has had its effect directly on people through various levels of panderers. To pander is to gratify or indulge (an immoral or distasteful desire, need, or habit or a person with such a desire, etc.). Pandering is not strictly limited to porn, but expressively extends to goods or service that are expensive relative to other goods or services. Those entertainers that move product get paid the most.

Again, as previously noted, the role of entertainers is very important and impressive and the greatest of them have been and are tremendous narcissists, as all the real world knows. The first time Trump appeared to most of us, was as a subject of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, a TV program with a notable focus on narcissism as something to be aspired to and admired!

So Hollywood and Washington DC may be said to have this quality in common. Why stop at Trump or Steyer? Just name all the top players and you can infer a lot of narcissism, or of sociopathy, or both! Who has the most self respect? A criminal, particularly one who knows that he or she is so far up the power pyramid, that nothing will ever happen to them. You can assume that places that pander narcissism to “the masses” and set up various pop stars for the general public to admire, are also full of predators of various kinds that really have a very similar profile to that of a narcissist, except sociopaths always aim to destroy, to murder, to overthrow and their particular targets for destruction are narcissists. Is this the path of the flesh and the devil? Some might say that. We're finding out more all the time.

But this blog is for expressing something else; the essential importance of free PRIVATE enterprise and of innate wealth and in order to achieve that, it becomes a requirement to admit issuance of private enterprise money. We hear continually that we must shun socialism and spread capitalism. More political talk that's always beside the point. We hear nobody promoting free PRIVATE enterprise. The reasons for this are described in this blog elsewhere. It has to do with deliberate CONFUSION of free private enterprise with capitalism.  

Students, what is capitalism? That's right, an itch with capital, the making of money upon money without work. What is free enterprise? That's right, it's the individual's will to do work. What's work? The time out of the rest of your life in which you do something to earn money. 

Why do you earn money? Well, in this world, unless you're not competent, you are required to pay for government in one way or another using THEIR money. All users of THEIR common ordinary STOLEN fiat money are encouraged to examine the cash instruments which says right on them who owns them and what it concerns; in the United States, a debt obligation of THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, always capitalized, as it refers to the corporation forced upon us by the bankers back in 1871. What does it mean when the name is all capitalized? Students? That's right, a corporation, a body, not the real entity, but one representing it as a creditor to whom? That's right, the Federal Reserve, the central bank of the country. These are Federal Reserve notes. What's a note? That's right, a debt obligation to pay it back, to whom? That's right folks, the Federal Reserve system, a set of banks set up by THEM back in 1913. It's all THEIR money, not yours or mine.

The government you pay for has jurisdiction over you as you live in this country and there are 50 states, each with their own set of governments. In the United States, it was always implicit that government was to be decentralized, to bring it as close to local public command as possible. But central banking and its stolen fiat money thwarts this and turns everything upside down. Now, the federalized power merely clamps down on each local area, subjects it to the common corruption of the grifters and grafters, and dictates the terms of their obeisance, all because of the source of all the money. It's THEIR system. All clamor for THEIR money and it comes out of legislative appropriations.

These legislative appropriators in particular are entrusted with the most important economic task facing the nation, determining what the government should buy. Why is this dangerous? Come on students! Did someone get that centralization by itself causes negative decisions to affect everyone? Did anyone get the tremendous waste in the purchasing of technologies and materials that might be unconstitutional within the United States as properly understood? Did anyone get the tremendous depreciation of some assets the government buys? That amounts to money that's gone forever, but must still be paid back with interest from that never ending stream of taxation. 

Yes, all of that is true. But our purpose has nothing to do with reforming THEM or anything like that. It's beside the point, literally beside OUR point, which is to recapture our will, our FIAT! 

So government is as some have put it, mind control. Government is the installation of a system of regulation of the mentalities of its … contributors, taxpayers, citizens … slaves. We have said that the proper purpose of a state is to enforce the law, specifically the civil and criminal law, even though there is a third branch of illicit law, commercial law, that the state must also enforce. 

Law is FORCE and is judged as nothing but FORCE in all cases. These include natural laws as they are discovered to exercise FORCE independently of the will or whim of any one of us. If you jump off a cliff, you may very well sustain injuries sufficient to kill you, due to the FORCE of gravity. If you circulate two sets of monetary tokens, one made of paper and the other gold with the same monetary units, the paper ones will circulate while the gold ones will be hoarded. Another FORCE is at work here. A third instance is of an activity or enterprise that can not be sustained. Sooner or later, it stops simply because it can't go on. That's also a form of death which itself is an instance of FORCE. A government has jurisdiction over you. That means that this mind control racket you are FORCED to pay for, using money that isn't even yours, actually tells you what the law (civil, criminal and commercial), also FORCE, happens to be. 

An essential part of the waking up process is to walk away from THEM, to walk out on THEM, to leave THEM to THEIR devices and avoid getting enmeshed too much in any of THEIR panders. You will still need to pay taxes and anything else that must be paid in THEIR money. Otherwise, you'd do better to rely on Valuns. But this isn't a “build it and they will come” idea. This must be done by each natural person out there deciding to organize to give it some time and yes a little of THEIR money too, to get it off the ground. 

Most people have no idea how businesses are organized, how they function, what any of the natural flows of products and services are. Each of these are deserving of study. A vertically integrated business is one that controls everything from production to final sale. A horizontally integrated business is one that engages in a variety of retail lines that they don't control and projects its business in as many local areas as possible before what happens? Come on students! Did someone say diminishing returns to scale? Of course, and it is different from industry to industry, from farm to farm, etc. Al kinds of things can change this dynamic too. Nevertheless in most going concern businesses, there are knowable diminishing returns to scale calculations. 

Some activities fade in usefulness and are gradually removed from business. These are termed structural changes by most standard economics. If one is structurally unemployed, it means that there's no market for one's skills, one's innate wealth has become structurally obsolete: something about the structure of goods and services in trade changed and rendered it so. Manufacturing and agriculture also undergo many structural changes, as when some crop can not be grown where it once thrived or that there is no market for it anymore. 

Any structurally sound enterprise is also spoken of as a “going concern” and implies that it has maintained itself over many years, perhaps a long time family business. Most of these are involved with production at or near the wholesale level; they are the most productive, again considering factors of size relative to return on investment up to a certain size where diminishing returns to scale sets the upward limit to profitability. 

What do capitalists frequently do? Recall that to us, capitalism is the making of money on money without work; the person having a lot of money to risk in a business does not actually punch the clock or contribute very much of anything, other than money to the business. Capitalists are looking for sure things. They very often don't succeed. One reason they fail is that they bought into a business that is nearing its structural end. Another is that they anticipate growth at scales they insist must return to them more as the enterprise grows in size. I can easily name half a dozen big nationwide concerns that are no longer in business simply because of their hubris of attempting to break through the diminishing returns to scale law. Market saturation plays a role in this, but it is a bit more complicated than supposed. 

One reason this blog exists is to alert everyone who reads it that the globalist plan is to take over the world. THEIR plan does not consider civilization as we have come to know it, to be essential or even desirable. How much better to flourish with all the gadgetry and illicit luxuries in a world that is otherwise a dystopia of death for most and a great suppression of the vast majority of whatever is left of the world's human population. THEY have written about it (THEIR scribes and lawyers, journalists and other presstitutes, etc.) and have made movies about it. Pity, the audiences that just thought they were watching fiction. 

So when I'm insisting that widening your vision amounts to seeing appeals to narcissism everywhere and always, I'm hoping to point out to you the depth and breath of what is usually described as narcissism. Once you begin to see the blazé, empty headed, common ordinary varieties of mass narcissism, it's difficult to see the world as you thought it was before you took notice. 

So now, I lead up to one of the capstone concepts that would characterize the way out of the deadly morass in which THEY have placed us. What is structurally required to have a sustainable civilization? It begins and ends with what we in America used to call the middle class. Without a sufficient middle class, nowhere can one have real civilization. Therefore: 

CIVILIZATION ITSELF IS IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT A STRONG MIDDLE CLASS 

This statement has the status of a law, which means that it has natural FORCE behind it. If a civilization loses its middle class, it sinks into poverty and barbarism. Any society that increases its middle class becomes more prosperous and civilized. You can't have a stable civilization with a fraction of the people being extremely rich compared with the vast majority of the people in any country, anywhere on Earth. Think of the dark ages in Europe, any other area or time when civilizations went into decline. Their middle classes were gone, either through wars, famines, natural disasters, and so on. History has adequately proved this and all ancient civilizations were actually held back by their rulers flouting this law, which of course they knew nothing about. Craftsmen and producers were always prey to the rulers, as they are now.  

Therefore, one reason this proposal exists is to promote the enlargement of the middle class, everywhere. Key to this is free PRIVATE enterprise and the issuance of our own money, separate from THEIRS, as described in this blog.

What are the structural imperatives of a strong middle class? How about the obvious ones that THEY always want to twist, mangle and obscure from everyone; ethnicity, family and nationality. You are who you are and no one else is you. You have will and most of you can work. There's always plenty to do. With another supply of money available through this proposal, more entrepreneurial ventures can spring up. Local trade causes living standards to gradually rise, because of the compounding of will and work, the only compounding worth considering. So this proposal specifically strengthens the potentials of every ethnicity, family and nationality that is capable of applying it. This is something we do for our kids and grandkids. Elsewhere we've said that all A member accounts were assets capable of being inherited. 

We could dive into the importance of supply lines, of wholesale and retail, uncovering the basic facts of life or death for any business of any size moving forward. Those who have pursued this neighborhood of topics, would begin to understand the realities of prices, of price points and quality features, of the various kinds of trade in used or recycled goods. These subjects await being tested using the proposal's accounting features, such as the 80% rule regarding the relationship between the Equity and Income balances and the Escrow balance as a means to determine what a diminishing profitability to size amounts to and how to optimize the balances to achieve the highest productivity and profitability. Regardless, there are natural limits to scale for any operation. Any business contemplating moving into the Valun exchange world would consider suppliers and whether they too would like to participate in the Valun exchange world. This is one way that this proposal can gain traction. 

As we have always said, whether this proposal becomes anything more than an academic exercise is a matter of personal and group will as none of us can do this alone. In fact, the whole concept of money loses its meaning if only various individuals act alone.  These must organize themselves into recognizable institutions that can manage the accounting (where all money ultimately resides anyway) and furnish a means of letting members know of each other, as advertising using the reverse sides of our circulating cash instruments provides. The proposal has largely been presented. The proposed international standard value unit or Valun has been in existence since 2011. It is up to you to take individual and group action to bring the proposal into reality.
