I love this!!!! It's so simple and beautifully true. 

> "In essence, the ex nihilo money creation practiced by the private banks is identical -- I do not hesitate to say this because it is important that people understand what is at stake here -- to the manufacture of currency by counterfeiters, who are justly punished by law. In practice both lead to the same result. The only difference is that those who benefit are not the same."

Thanks for writing this, so many great fractured pieces of perspective.  I really appreciate this quote about nazi germany from Norman Ohler. The parallels to the current state of the US are uncanny.

> If Nazism was anything, it was a doctrine that claimed Germany could overcome the limits of its purely material resources through the combination of new technology, inspired leadership, and ideological motivation through hatred. It was necessary to do more, push higher, go faster, succeed through will, outdo the other guy in working towards the leader. As the brilliance of Adolf Hitler and of German military commanders would inspire soldiers to triumph on the battlefield, the brilliance of great scientists and entrepreneurs wouid lead Germany to the economic triumph that was also required to win.

I find it interesting to think that so much of our current system has derived from not ONLY people of power at the top, but is directly emergent from our own thoughts and understanding of reality.  And actually changing the system, will require shifting the power structures, but also changing ourselves.

Anyway, thanks for the epic post, I'm happy to know you're here, and I dig the multi-dimensional approach!
