One can of course identify with the outraged sentiments toward the financial powers that be, but when we see statements like, “there is no alternative” you can be assured that this comes from either an amnesia/ignorance of political history or from talking points drawn up around a vector analysis board somewhere that is designed to snatch continued covert financial dominance from the mouth of freedom by presenting the false dualism of capitalism versus socialism…neither of which has ever freed the individual, but rather has always slumped us back into the mud of elite tyranny.

There is a third way! And we must burn that conscious freeing truth into our minds and never forget it or allow it to be compromised. Fight monopolistic financial ideas and mindsets with competing and balancing ones of equal or greater power! Fight elitist political philosophies with the intention that the individual be served by both immanent economic freedom and the concept and ethic of decentralization/subsidiarity! We can finally get it right if we chose the balance, equilibrium, flow and freedom of systems based on the natural and psychologically powerful aspects of Grace…not power. All agendas can rally beneath and be included within this all encompassing idea and intention. For the sake of ourselves and our posterity let us have the strength and the Wisdom to chose that greater aim!

Patrick Collins:  That’s why I tend to doubt Syriza’s intentions:  they could have
already introduced a local within-Greece-only currency, which would
have been a great starting-point for a first level of “subsidiarity” –
national vs international.
And hopefully that would lead on to state and local/city currencies
&/or at least banks like BND.

Me:  You know I don’t doubt Syriza’a intentions, it’s just that even with good intentions political and financial systems based more on power than on individual freedom….will inevitably result in elite tyranny. Ironically, if you ACTUALLY place the individual’s freedom first by implementing economic and financial freedom to them via a dividend and a retail discount and making it clear that Grace is the zeitgeist of the age….power and control can still be utilized, but they will be tempered if not redeemed by that ethic….because Grace is real and indeed it IS redemptive.
