No it inst me, though this is, , and I certainly dont smoke.
That for idiots. I try to look after my health.
The world does appear to reflect what this guys saying.
Haven't you read the Da Vinci Code? See Link >>>>

To be sure, I have a great CD on radical thoughts, but I look beyond those.
Being government employed, I reckon you cant see this!
I reckon people on a whole are OK.
You appear to be little bit on the wobbly side of sane.
Only your ideas count?
I am still on the level, but feel degraded due to your superior skills
at ridiculing what most notmal people see.
Even Abbott is using climate change to political advantage. He's wrong too!
Be very careful on your interpretations. You may just loosen the screws
that ruin the Planet.

Try a little bit of loctite.

*Not being a lover of banks, I see some sympathy with the writings of
this chap.
There appears to be some smoke and mirrors with banks doesn't there?
I wish I could join the club!
But no, I didnt write this.
As I wrote previously, being an ass, you assume too mucn and make an ass
out of you and me!
You may want to read this fable by Aesop.

The history sounds right. But the facts may have changed...

THE FIFTY DOLLAR NOTE

by Dennis Collins

A travelling salesman booked a room at a hotel in a little country

town, paid with a $50 note on which was some purple texta scribble,

and went off on his business


The Hotelier, things being quiet took the $50 note to the butcher and paid

off a meat bill. The butcher took the $50 note to the grocer and reduced

his debt to the grocer by that amount. The grocer took the $50 note to the

boot mender and paid for shoe repairs for himself and his family. The boot

repairer took the $50 note to the Hotelier to pay for some beer he had on

credit.

Just then the travelling salesman came in saying he couldn't stay the

night and could he have his $50 back. He is given the same texta marked

$50 note he originally gave the hotelier, and is told the story of the

series of debts which had been paid by that particular note. The salesman

smiled and said "Isn't that remarkable, and even more so because the note

is a forgery."

This forged note had in effect allowed conveniently:

The Hotelier to barter beer for meat.



The Butcher to barter meat for groceries.



The Grocer to barter groceries for shoe repairs.



The Bootmaker to barter shoe repair service for beer.

The forged $50 note simply acted as a common medium of exchange that made

the transactions simple and allowed commerce (the exchange of goods and

services) to flow easily.

The same thing could have been done with a cash

cheque even if the cheque was written against no funds just as long as

nobody banked it.

Money ought to be like the forged $50 note in the story - a servant. The

problem with our current money system relates to:

Who is creating our money

How they put it into circulation

How they remove it from circulation.

The current money system - basically 3,000 years old, uses money to

enslave through debt, and not to serve society as it should.
Food for thought.
