Renaissance 2.0 - Section One - Lessons 1-3

3 Comments

The next three chapters revisit History, Economics 101, and Civics 101 to correct the myths about the system within which we live today--a monolithic financial empire. My goal with these first three is to establish the common baseline from which we can dialogue about the future. Continuing to swing between the establishment right and left, which both take us down the same path, has failed for generations and will continue to fail because both sides are media creations controlled by higher powers, explained in these videos.

Renaissance 2.0: Lesson 2 - Revisiting Economics 101 – Debt

Renaissance 2.0: Lesson 3 - Revisiting Civics 101 – Ownership

Thanks for posting/pointing to this... While it may be review and a rehash of information for some, it is presented in a well thought out way. In lesson Lesson 4 (part 1 of 4) he uses some great terms that I think Freedom's Vision might think about adopting.

SOVEREIGN MONEY

P+I (elite) vs. P (workers)

The END THE FED activists groups I participate in tend to focus on "END THE FED - Gold is Money" or END THE FED - "Sound Money" or "Constitutional Money" (same thing, both referring to Silver and or gold) . As I have said the metals won't make any difference in the long run since the "P+I" elite control the gold and the I.

So having said all that, how about...

END THE FED - Sovereign Money Now!

I really liked the "P < P+I"

I know the average Joe on the street wouldn't get it without an explanation but Damon does a great job boiling down everything to a simple mathematical expression. I want a coffee cup with that math expression on it.

I do like your slogan. It states the goal and how to attain the goal. Simple and catchy.

Yeah, that's the message. Simple formula is good, some people respond to that well. It's the same thing as talking about interest because P is on both sides of the equation. Whatever works to get the point across, this is why I like Damon's videos because it says it in a different way and that will probably click for more people - terrific!

The slogan, "END THE FED - Sovereign Money Now!" sounds like something very appropriate for a rally sign, a rally chant, a T-shirt, a coffee mug etc. You will also note that there is another group whose site is called "End the Fed." Again, it's another way of saying it. I try to write Freedom's Vision pieces to be middle of the road. We all need to keep in mind that successful leaders have the ability to "talk downwards in simple terms" but that they also have the ability to talk upwards in languages that the insiders and professionals understand as well. It is my goal to not sound so down that insiders disregard it, and not so uppity that the people can't understand it. I believe that is the way to capture the broadest base because those without the inside knowledge need to see insider's support to accept it.

So, when I write I will be writing to the middle and when I talk, you will hear me talk both up and down depending on the audience. I believe this to be one of the flaws inherent with most money reform movements to date. Take the AMI for example. Far too stodgy, the masses wouldn't spend more than 15 seconds on their site. The END THE FED site? The upper echelons wouldn't spend more than 15 seconds on their site.

So, I like the slogan, but let's make sure we are conscious of where we place it and where we use it. I say we need T-shirts and more paraphernalia, it would make a great slogan for those.
