I agree with you completely here. There is no "miracle cure" that will solve any of our problems. The "Debt virus" is certainly not one that cure. A friend of mine and I sat down and worked on it for a few hours last week, and successfully built a micro-model system that charged 50% interest and had zero inflation in the first year, and zero debt. Of course there was also zero economic growth. Add in growth and you need a little debt each year, don't you? It's a very complex system, but at least we can observe its real effects. If we can figure out a useful and *marketable* way to change things so that fewer people went hungry while others accumulated more than they could ever use, and maybe peacefully take back control of our society, I'd be all over that. Because (and I know Cal agrees) violence is not the way to solve anything, and I don't want things to start getting violent here in the U.S. I mean, it's always been really violent, but maybe there's a better way. --Alex ==^================================================================ This email was sent to: archive@mail-archive.com EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?a84IaC.bcVIgP.YXJjaGl2 Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] TOPICA - Start your own email discussion group.
