How does the world work? Fiat Money? Economics forecasting? And all other mambo jambo stuff…


Four Horsemen - Feature Documentary - Official Version
Great Documentary !!!


“Revolutions are philosophical.
Getting organized and preventing the culprits camouflaging the real problem means it's possible to embark on a bloodless revolution against the violent organizations and barbaric leaders who've trashed the economy.
Central banking, rigged capitalism, land speculation, income tax and neo-classical economics have corporatized democracy, stunted progress, perverted the course of human destiny and compromised the future of this planet.
If these issues aren't addressed then the next implosion will be on a scale unimagined.
Whatever the propaganda: at the beginning of the 21st century, central banks unregulated cheap money, pumped up land values which created an unsustainable asset bubble in a world that once again operates a rigged tax system that enriches entrenched privilege.
Neo-classical economics have ruined life for the bottom billions, tempted everyone into intergeneration conflict and created massive suffering that has no limits.
Human beings go mad in crowds and come to their senses slowly and individually.
History is littered with examples of people who threw themselves off the yoke of oppression to adopt radical change only to end up with popular new rulers that maintained the status quo.
To really understand something is to be liberated from it.
Dedicating oneself to a great cause, taking responsibility and gaining self-knowledge is the essence of being human.

A predatory capitalist's truest enemy and humanity's greatest ally is the self-educated individual who has read, understood, delays their gratification and walks around with their eyes wide open.”

These 4 Things Kill Relationships

 "Criticism – Complaints are fine. Criticism is more global — it attacks the person, not their behavior. They didn’t take out the garbage because they forgot, but because they’re a bad person.

 Contempt – “…name-calling, eye-rolling, sneering, mockery, and hostile humor. In whatever form, contempt – the worst of the four horsemen – is poisonous to a relationship because it conveys disgust. It’s virtually impossible to resolve a problem when your partner is getting the message that you’re disgusted with him or her.”

 Defensiveness – “…defensiveness is really a way of blaming your partner. You’re saying, in effect, ‘The problem isn’t me, it’s you.’ Defensiveness just escalates the conflict, which is why it’s so deadly.”

 Stonewalling – Tuning out. Disengaging. This doesn’t just remove the person from the conflict, it ends up removing them, emotionally, from the relationship."

Why we’re letting Virgin staff take as much holiday as they want

"There is no need to ask for prior approval and neither the employees themselves nor their managers are asked or expected to keep track of their days away from the office. It is left to the employee alone to decide if and when he or she feels like taking a few hours, a day, a week or a month off, the assumption being that they are only going to do it when they feel a hundred per cent comfortable that they and their team are up to date on every project and that their absence will not in any way damage the business – or, for that matter, their careers!" http://www.virgin.com/richard-branson/why-were-letting-virgin-staff-take-as-much-holiday-as-they-want #workplacepolicies #economics #WorkLifeBalance

Germans do it better!
"Daimler installed software that not only auto-replies to email sent while staff is away, but deletes it "
As always the comments are too funny...
