NETWORK ECONOMY, THE FUTURE OF WORLD ECONOMY

Network economy

The future of world economy

Definition of economy in 2020 AC: 

Economy: “Exploitation of nature.” (Term created by mankind to explain, justify the exploitation of natural resources and nature in general)

Economy is a thrilling field of studies. Everybody seems to have an opinion and all swear to be right. Almost like a religion, economic theories are sets of beliefs meant to be imposed on others.

Like Yanis Varoufakis, greek finance minister once said:

“Economy is a belief with lots of equations. It´s the only field where two different Nobel prize winners can have the absolute conviction that the other one is a complete moron. This does not happen in physics or chemistry.”

We have to admit that criticism on economists is founded. The track record of most economists is poor if not mediocre but we still see them on television, newspapers, etc lecturing us on what to do.

The thing is that they can be right and wrong at the same time, the difference lies mainly in the time aspect. Economic measures for the short run will probably cause economic distress in the long run.

However with today's urgency for news and results, winners and losers are measured by the amount of money that was accumulated. Money is the measurement scale.

The accumulation of capital could have been an excellent indicator for right and wrong, was it not for the fact that the system is rigged. As long as money creation remains in custody of a handful of entities, money is not the best way to measure economic success. 

Besides the fact that the actual money creation scheme is fixed, there is a much more important issue that challenges the money based economy, nature.

Interest rates, inflation, growth, all important aspects of the financial based economy act as if natural resources were abundant and limitless and nature would not be affected by the actual production model.

Reality is different and although the system we have lived in has been ruling for more than a century, it seems to have reached its peak if not already passed it.

Modern society demands a new system where the individual and his social network are free and can prosper without being dependent on a centralized, anonymous power structure.

Globalization has created these anonymous, centralized powers that little by little have imposed their will onto countries for their sole benefit. 

This has generated an accumulation of wealth for a few and annihilated any development possibility for the majority. 

However, little by little things are changing and a silent and gradual revolution is taking place. Society is organizing itself to counter the impositions set unto them by corporations and their well paid “Hitmen”, politicians.

Technology, innovation and foremost the growth of Internet use has created a new economic trend, “network economy”.

The solution seems to be local. People are coming together and setting up networks to counter the system. 

That is why the future of economy is set to be the “Network Economy”. 

Big companies will continue to produce advanced technological products for the masses but the survival and collaborative economy (food, beverages, utilities, logistics, etc) will more and more be local. 

New technology will make the exchange of information easily available and the network will contribute with products, ideas, knowledge, services, capital, etc. 

Innovations will gather capital, knowledge and even the first customers from the network.

This trend will have all kinds of consequences that will change the path globalization has taken us to. The accumulation of money will be relegated in favor of wellbeing, social contribution and social security networks. 

Local currencies, banks and even local arbitrage will see the light. Savings and capital will be guarded and invested in sustainable products and services instead of in currencies that the individual does not control. Alternative value holders will naturally flourish and be exchanged among the network participants and some will even be accepted by the majority of networks becoming national or even international currencies.

This will also have consequences for the big inter-governmental organizations like EU, NAFTA, MERCOSUR, ASEAN etc. 

Especially the EU with its legal expansionism will probably have to rethink its rules, directives and regulation policies since they will very soon be incompatible with the reality of the regions or countries they pretend to control. In the long run imposing centralized EU rules on sovereign citizens will show to be impossible if these are meant to impose the law of corporations instead of protecting the freedom and liberties of citizens.

Society is changing and the economic paradigm we were living in is rapidly mutating into a more humane economy.

The powerful will of course not go down without a fight. “Armageddon” and all kinds of “Doomsday” scenarios will be announced, proclaimed and threaten with. They know that their control will be limited by this new economic evolution but the actual system will leave no other choice.

“The old economy is death, long live the economy.”

THE SYSTEM EXPOSED

It is not easy to talk about a ruling system or shadow governments without being characterized as conspiracy theorist or freak. I am aware this post can and will be used against me in future but sometimes one has to dare exposing his analysis on the developments of our society without fear of being marginalized by the "intellectual leadership" or mainstream media.

What is intellectual leadership anyway? The pundits that squawk on television or the biased articles in mainstream newspapers? Aren't we as a society losing our faith in the propaganda that comes out the mainstream media anyway? Haven't we been deceived so many times that nowadays we watch, listen and read them for entertainment purposes rather than fact checking. Actually, I think that most smart people follow the mainstream media for intelligence gathering, trying to decipher their propaganda so that they can prepare for the consequences of their lies.

What has become clearer and clearer since the beginning of this millennium is that certain things have happen that are changing our world:

1. Individual liberties are eroding on a daily basis

2. Concentration of power through centralization

3. Financial economy has taken over real economy

4. Wealth transfer from bottom to the top has accelerated

There are still a lot of people that are not aware of these changes because they are still at the receiving end of the system or they simply don't care.

However for the observers it is obvious this is happening and it is increasing its pace.

You might be wondering: You talk about the system but who is the system and how can we recognize and fight it, if needed.

This is the interesting part: Who are the the real rulers?

You won't find them on television, newspapers or radios explaining their plans or goals. They are smarter than that. I am not even saying that they meet at a table and discuss the real course of things, although if I analyze the developments they look a lot like the plans set forth by influence groups like the Bilderberg, the trilateral commission, special commissions of the UN. The real rulers work behind doors.

If I would have to make a pyramid that represents the power structure I would classify them like this:

Explanation of the pyramid

FED:

Since the US came out of the gold standard and the USD became officially the reserve currency of the world, the FED has had a firm grip on the decisions taken all over the world. Don't believe me?

Ask yourself the question: Would you have power if you had money?

If your answer is yes, imagine you had the power to print money as you please, how much power would that give you?

Now take into consideration that although this is unknown to many but that the FEDERAL RESERVE is not a government agency and is not owned by the American people but by a conglomerate of banks and wealthy families. The American people only owning a minority part of the shares. So, the bank issuing money in the US is not owned by the people. Do you still believe that in the US, people live in a democracy if printing money can give you unparelleled power?

The FED is the most important player since all the National Central Banks need dollars to be able to operate on international level.

So do the IMF and the Worldbank, that are owned by the US although they refuse to admit this. How can you otherwise explain the policies enforced by the IMF on "poor" countries, just to receive their fake fiat dollars as debt?

IMF and Worldbank are the enforcers of the kleptocrats at the top that through the fake loans of the IMF and Worldbank can buy natural and wealth producing resources for penny on the dollars in the countries they target.

BIG BANKS:

Big banks are the ones declared "systemic banks" that are too big to fail. The interesting part in this argument is that since the Lehman Brothers collapse in 2008 they have become 20% bigger. If they were too big to fail then, now they have become "too big to fight".

These banks do all the inside deals with corporations, governments and offer them alternative financing when they cannot go directly to central banks or International monetary institutions for whatever reason, like cooking the books or hiding from public scrutiny.

These are the Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, HSBC, Citibank, Wells Fargo, Bank of America. Some of these banks are also shareholders of the FED and thus "too close to fail". These banks most of the time have a special bond with the FED that allows them to have access to "cheap money" which whom they design weapons of mass financial destruction that they later use on countries, states, municipalities, companies or even smaller banks that they control through inflation and deflation of money supply.

CORPORATIONS / MEDIA:

Multinationals or large corporations manipulate laws and minds through an interesting system they have set up consisting of lobbyism, campaign funding and propaganda.

Isn't it interesting that commercial laws seem to have been written by corporations. Laws that make it difficult for newcomers to join the markets or for the small and medium sized to compete.

The propaganda that corporations finance through media makes them definitely have a say in the media's message and like this not only influence the public but creating public opinion to enforce their agenda.

Governments basically only have to adopt the laws corporations draw since they will be supported by the financed propaganda on the mainstream media financed by the corporations. 

Although corporations go from oil industry to food industry there however is one very strong and toxic group that i would call the "military industrial complex" that pushes for constant confrontations an wars that are fed to us on a daily basis by the news channels.

GOVERNMENTS:

Governments would be almost at the lowest level of the pyramid. They are responsible to enforce what all of the above dictate. Politicians are recruited on their demagoguing skills.

Obama has been a very good employee. He was able to motivate millions of people to believe in a better world. Many believed the messiah had arrived but the truth is that he has been a strong enforcer of total control of the system. Some examples are: Financial and industrial bailouts, NDAA, widening of the fiscal and overall debt burden, etc. etc. etc., you name it Obama seems to be in bed with the coporations and banking cartels that he campaigned against.

PEOPLE:

Poor creatures. It is interesting to see them fight among each other, blaming the neighbour, the foreigner, their employer, the colleague at work for their misery. We the people are buying into the fake problems politicians feed us because the vast majority of us does not understand or believe that there are real shadow governments and our politicians are puppets.

As long as we don't wake up and fight the system, as long as we the people do not demand to be free, independent and work to get the system out of our lives, we will be the slaves that sustain and feed the pyramid.

We need to free ourselves from the mental straitjackets we are living in and deploy a strategy to free ourselves from the tyranny we are living in.

The United States, as well as Europe is set up for collusion, and their solution will be more control. They will impose more control to "protect" (read control) us better. 

"The arsonist needs more gasoline to control the fire"

This seems a joke but it is happening and we are watching it happening, getting poorer and loose our liberties everyday that goes by. 

Some tips to end this post on how we can start freeing ourselves and start weakening the parasites that we feed.

1. Save in gold and precious metals, accept other payment methods

2. Grow your own food

3. Safe and generate your own energy

4. Buy as much as you can local

5. Vote for small political parties (atomize the power of governments)

6. Turn off television and educate yourself about economy.

I am sure there are more things you can do, this is not an exhaustive list but a list to help you start your very own revolution.

THE SECOND WORLD

It is interesting to observe evolutions in modern society. A long period of initial shocks (economic and wars) at the beginning of last century gave place to a new deal, creating economic prosperity in the western world. Although much of this increase in wealth was due to exploitation of many 3rd world and developing countries, it kind of gave an equilibrium to the world and allowed the first world to prosper in many ways.

Actually, the first world never had such a long period of prosperity which can be better measured in the increase of life expectancy. 

The fall of the iron curtain, however shifted this equilibrium into the victory of capitalism. The winning doctrine of competition and liberalism was the way to go. However, time has shown us that like in sports no victory lasts forever if the winner does not keep in shape. 

The problem of capitalism are not the values of competition and innovation, the problem of capitalism that emerged after defeating communism was the lack of these values. Capitalism that emerged after the fall of the iron curtain was almighty and nobody dared to question its imposition, no matter which captain was steering it. 

However, we were fooled to believe that capital was money and not the production of wealth. The moment this illusion became mainstream, problems started. Especially the fact that the US could keep printing endless money and always found buyers perpetrated the illusion and added to the mirage. 

The problem is that Real Capital is not money or the accumulation of money but something completely different.

- Capital is not money, Capital is the creation of wealth.

- Capital is when innovation and creativity contribute to solution problems in society. 

- Capital is not the accumulation of money, especially if the latest is fake.

However, the mainstream ideology was that money was capital. Well, then let's examine this fact.

I guess most of people would agree with the statement: Money is power!

Well, imagine you would have the power to create money out of nothing, whenever you liked or needed it. I guess you would be a powerful person and could do what you would like without taking others into consideration. That is  what is happening now, creation of a fake capital that does not take into account economic reality. The root of our problems!  We have entities that have that power and are accountable to no one except their own interests. This kind of capitalism is unfortunately the capitalism that has reigned for the past 40 years and like everything artificial, eventually reality is going to catch up.

Anyway, now that we are seeing the consequences of what this well engineered illusion has brought us to, we can start to see an interesting consequence:

The emergence of the Second World

What is the Second World? The second world are the countries that used to make part of the first world but were relegated to second division. However they still have the infrastructures acquired while in the first world. Transportation, Education, Political System. Societies in quick decay.

These could be the countries in the periphery of Europe which are slowly but surely going into serfdom mode. Serfdom to the stronger countries of Europe who will use these Second World countries for their leisure and food supply.

It is actually interesting to see how the political leaders of the Second World countries are dealing with the situation; exactly the same way they were pulled into the first division, following the dictatorship of the first world countries. It is becoming more and more obvious that all the PIIGS (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, Spain) countries have been for a long time run by Germany and France. Just see how the Second World politicians keep going back to Europe to ask for guidance! 

Should we punish our citizens more? Starvation could get rid of a bunch of them! Please, IMF (International Mafia Federation), EU (Enforcement Unit), ECB (European Counterfeit Board) tell us what to do. We have fared well all these years pretending being politicians, (following your orders) don't let us down now.

An interesting additional phenomenon is that the Second World is formed by 2 groups:

THE WANNABES

THE FALLEN

The Wannabes are the countries that always wanted to be part of the first world and have tried to emulate them. In this group we have Portugal and Greece that all of a sudden thought they could join the first world faking reality. Cooking the books was no problem as long as they could join the select group.

The Fallen are Spain and Italy that deep down feel they make part of the first world but somehow do not seem to get accepted. They know they have a great history but don’t understand why that alone is not enough to join the First World.

I think it is important these PIIGS countries understand their strengths and start working on gaining back their dignity. Forget the fake capital system imposed by the first world. The faster you understand what real capital (wealth) is, you guys will teach everybody a lesson. Your countries used to be at the forefront of civilization. You got there not because you had paper money. You got there because you were at the forefront of innovation, creation, discovery. Your countries are blessed by nature and your culture a landmark for all civilizations. Think about all the Greek great thinkers and their contribution to the development of a civilized society, the roman empire, the spanish and portuguese conquerors. 

Create your own league, a league based on common sense, reality, innovation, creativity and quality of life. Create capital, real capital and let the First World be the leaders of fake capitalism.
