Dear Johnny and friends, all,
We must, all, be saddened to see this (inevitable) consequence of an
economic system (Ha!) that is drowning in the insecurity of capitalism:
(I do recommend 'The Age of Insecurity' by 'Guardian' journalists Larry
Elliott and Dan Atkinson, Verso. London - published in paperback September
1999.)
The paragraph, snipped below, rightly high-lights the mental anguish caused
by market place economics (the 'price' system.)
Central to this system is the non-sense of compound interest.
As a transformative step in replacing this crazy 'economic' system with an
all-inclusive, fair and sustainable economics of love and friendship (let
us, the people, reagain for our-selves these wonderful words), The Campaign
for Interest-Free Money calls for the repeal of permission to charge
interest on lent money (the usury that creates market economics) and to
create a Public Service Banking and Financial System designed to be the
peoples' and the planets' servant, not its master.
