The “money” many go to lengths to obtain is nothing more than part of a value system. Unfortunately this particular monetary system was not something any of our own kind was privileged to participating in its creation thus we have no real input in it. More so its control, circulation and maintenance was constructed with the benefit of its creators in mind. So the ultimate question (one that should have been long asked and solutioned but due to the fact that predecessors merely went “along” and failed to Think Outside The Box on) is “HOW” can we as a people now teamwork to figure out a way to create our own “Monetary System” that genuinely factors our own kind in and benefits us. (When answering this question the worst thing you can do here is to simply regurgitate “text-Books” so please avoid that and simply use your brain and Think-Outside-The-Box in a creative and truly innovative manner).
Value is something “we” as humans place on a thing. In the past as a people we never valued each other nor did we even “value” our creator given resources such as simple things like Mango’s or Pineapples but when the European took that same whole pineapple and then returned a small piece of it back in a tin-can saturated with sugar and water and then slapped a hefty price on it then suddenly we the people all jumped up and down stupidly for joy and bent over backwards to rush and buy that tiny piece of pineapple that was now canned and heavily priced.
The “de-value” we placed on our own whole pineapple was a mental ailment in our own mind and the new “value” we ended up joyfully placing on the imported heavily priced small piece of pineapple saturated with sugar was also another mental ailment within our own minds.
So the more astute of you, tell us, HOW do we go about bringing back in alignment our own distorted “value” mindset and genuinely coming up with innovative ways to now create a new monetary value system for ourselves?
As a side note, do bare in mind when thinking on these sort of questions, that there are forces out there that will do everything and anything to “sabotage” your thoughts and efforts of implementation. So when you think of solutions make sure your thoughts are both detailed and cover all possible scenarios!
