You can gauge the level of oppression with which a people are forced to struggle by the number of betterment groups formed to combat it. A survey of the current scene tells us that at this time humanity truly has its collective back to the wall.

Thousands of betterment groups comprising tens or hundreds of thousands of very fine people, with the at least tacit support of millions more, are engaged in a struggle against one threat or another to human health and happiness, or even to any possibility at all for a future for humanity. The manifestations of oppression are as various as they are unpleasant and range from income tax to psychiatric human rights violations, environmental devastation to Third World destitution.

These manifold struggles are a deadly serious activity in whose happy outcomes we all have a vested interest but unfortunately, to date, happy outcomes appear to be out of reach: the Good Guys have been losing.

This tells us something: if many people are pushing very hard in one direction only to find themselves going backwards, someone or something is pushing even harder in the opposite direction. That someone or something must be a mighty power that has somehow escaped our attention.

An understanding of how the money system works enables us to unlock this puzzle and something becomes evident when one looks this over: all those betterment groups out there fight their individual battles alone – but the oppression they face is a united and coordinated force commanding massive resources. In short, each betterment group fights alone and with its limited resources the entire might of planetary oppressive power.

The process of borrowing money into existence is probably the daftest way ever invented of supplying an economy with its means of exchange but, sadly, it isthe modus operandi of planet Earth’s economies at this time. Only very few people know about it. The fraudsters responsible for this scam expend huge effort to hide it behind a cloak of respectability and a smoke screen of complexity: they stand to lose everything if it is ever publicly exposed.

The cause of freedom demands a broad public understanding of all this because it is the hidden, underlying cause of virtually all our current ills. It is the reason nations and industries suffer from the endemic debt that renders all economies inherently insolvent and catastrophically unstable. It has brought into being an echelon of power that is hidden from view but is SENIOR to governments

I have explained it at great length in my free books but to state it briefly here: without debt, there is no money. Debt is the way our money supply is created and if we want sustainable growth responsive to human need we had better recognise that planet Earth at this time does not have a money system able to deliver that kind of thing, much as its five billion beleagured inhabitants wish it did.

Anyone able to create money out of nothing, then lend it to everybody else at interest possesses a fantastic privilege. He is able to amass vast wealth without effort- a claim of ownership upon all the money in existence. His control of the world’s money supply affords him enormous power. That privilege is currently enjoyed by the world’s banking chains, ultimate control of which rests in the hands of a small elite of international money-lenders.

Any individual or organisation dependent upon the continued extension of credit by a lender is beholden to that lender. The lender can control his policies simply by setting conditions for the further provision of credit. The lender can withhold credit or call in loans if the borrower steps out of line and fails to meet his conditions.

This is the situation in which all governments, and most media empires and corporate giants find themselves. Hopelessly in debt, with little or no hope of ever getting out of debt they rely upon the continuation of bank lending in order to survive.

They are no longer masters of their own destinies: the banks call the shots. The financial elite wields the hidden power that influences the global economic – and thereby political – direction. It is vital that you understand this mechanism if you aspire to freedom or wish to halt our global slide into the abyss. Examine any problem confronting humanity today – environmental devastation, junk production, poverty, Third World debt, wars, recessions, globalisation, genetically modified organisms, the drugging of populations, the control cult of psychiatry, media manipulation and so on and you will discover at the bottom of it the in-built economic self-destruct of the debt money system or the machinations of a banking elite that uses its control of the money supply for its own ends.

This is the hidden source from which oppression draws its limitless wealth and resources. It places government, the media, corporate might and so on in a position subordinate to and in alliance with the money powers. It faces any betterment group with an enemy in command of global resources, whose true extent and interlocking agencies are hard to see.

Before anyone becomes overwhelmed by all this, realise that this presents the Good Guys with a solution. The various aspects of suppression are like the manifold symptoms of a disease. If you merely address the symptoms and ignore the underlying virus that creates them, you do not achieve a recovery. The best you can hope for is an interminable and ultimately vain struggle to suppress symptoms whilst the disease itself rages unchecked. You must isolate and eliminate the virus in order to clear up all the symptoms.

If, for example, you want to save the environment, you have to address and resolve this question: why is it so financiallyunviable for governments and businesses to ensure the continued ability of this planet to sustain life? In every other sense not to do so is sheer madness, yet the “market forces” of our economies promote that madness – and punish any attempt to restore sanity.

If you wish our many difficulties to become amenable to resolution you simply have to address the hidden underlying flaw that renders our economies incapable of serving the real needs of mankind. That flaw is the very nature of what we are using for money. Our money is debt and as a means of exchange it does not work.

But how do we reform the debt-money system? Simple: restore to elected government the sole right to create and issue – by spending into existence, never lending – all the money the economy requires in order to function smoothly.

This simple reform will restore to government, and thus its electorate, control of its own policies, remove debt and excessive taxation from our lives, render economies responsive to human need and, as Abraham Lincoln once said: “Money will cease to be the master and become the servant of humanity. Democracy will rise superior to the money power.”

This reform will not magically cure all the world’s ills. What it will do is remove from the financial elite their unseen power to control the affairs of men and remove from our endeavours the blight of an unworkable money system. This will move us up to square one: the point at which we can set about dealing with our many problems with the expectation of success. They will become amenable to resolution because the hidden power that resists our best efforts to deal with them will be gone.

This provides us with the issue over which all betterment groups can unite:a demand for monetary reform incorporated into the various campaigns in which they are engaged. Without any group having to surrender its autonomy or compromise its goals, all groups will become a powerful alliance able to effectively address the common enemy’s Achilles’ heel.

The whole interlocking power of oppression is inherently weak. It is weak because it is based upon an egregious fraud. It is weak because it depends for its continuance upon preventing people finding out about it: when people see it for what it is, they are not going to tolerate it a moment longer.

All we have to do is expose it broadly, denounce it loudly and demand with outrage that it cease. A broad alliance of betterment groups speaking out with one voice over this crucial issue could achieve this relatively easily. There are, after all, a whole lot of us and very few of them and they know no justice and no decency and command no loyalty they cannot buy.

The world can belong at last to honest men, provided honest men unite and stir themselves to take it back. Men like you.

It will be in safe hands then.

So why not let’s do it? Quick!
