The world today is broken.

Business, financial and political leaders have led us into despair,

and the selective pop culture style news that floods our mainstream media

have done nothing but fuel anger and confusion

among the American population and the population of the world.

Fortunately there is a logical solution to fix

many of the ills that plague us all today,

but one of the hardest things for a culture to do

is step back and realize that a major shift needs to occur

in order for the future of their children to be secured.

The solution is simple, but it is not easy.

Changes of this nature never are,

but they are obvious throughout history,

and they mark key points in humanity where we rose to the next level,

and made life better for a larger group of people.

History can be broken into levels of development.

Level 1 showcased the nomadic and cave based humans,

capable of only sustaining themselves, their mate and their children.

Level 2 showcased the Hunter/Gatherer humans,

capable of sustaining their group.

Level 3 showcased the Agricultural humans,

capable of sustaining their towns.

Level 4 showcased the Industrial human,

capable of sustaining large cities,

their nation and nations in desperate need.

And now we are at the doorstep of Level 5, the Technology human,

capable of sustaining the world and the entire human population

at a high standard of living.

As each new level was reached,

a change in the economic system needed to occur

in order to be the most efficient for the new paradigm.

What needs to change now is the system of economics

that governs the Technological Age.

What's needed is the proper resource utilization of the entire planet

for the benefit of the entire human race

and not just a portion of it.

But before we detail this change,

we must start by addressing the problems we're facing today

and the root cause as to why we have them in the first place.

Only by understanding our problems,

and how they came about, can we begin to develop a solution.

We have inflation, ever increasing taxes,

significant unemployment, political corruption,

energy concerns, financial instability,

crime, environmental issues and so much more.

It is obvious why the world is so stressed

and humanity suffers as it does.

Now, more than ever, is the time for humanity

to stand up and do something about it.

Politicians and industry alike have repeatedly tried

over and over to solve these issues, and never once have they succeeded.

The best they've ever done is delay or mask the concerns.

The reason for this will be made clear during this video,

but in short, it's because no one has ever seriously addressed the root cause

for all of these issues,

and that cause is the outdated system of economics

we use around the world today.

The Monetary System, or more specifically the Price System,

is the basic underlying factor that is the fundamental cause

for all of the issues we're facing today.

By definition: A price system is any economic system

that effects its distribution of goods and services

with prices based on commodity evaluation

and uses any form of money or debt tokens.

Do not confuse this with Capitalism, the Free Market,

or any other term an economist would use.

It is also very important to understand that this is not a political argument,

and has absolutely nothing to do with political controls.

Every nation on this planet, no matter their political ideology,

be it a Democracy, Monarchy, Socialism, Communism or whatever,

operates using this same underlying economic system.

They ALL employ this system

for the exchange of goods and services throughout the world.

It is the one major common link between everyone,

which is also why it is the fundamental cause

for so many problems we see in the world today.

And here's why:

The Monetary System requires 2 key components to work:

Scarcity and Growth.

In the past, prior to 1800,

these two requirements were perfectly valid throughout the world.

This was a time when traveling just 500 miles was dangerous,

if not deadly, and the shipping of goods was no less difficult.

Scarcity is very important in this system,

because it serves the purpose of establishing value... price.

Think back to Economics 101: Supply and Demand.

The less the supply, the more scarce it is,

therefore the price is higher.

The more the supply, the less value it has,

so the price is lower.

Prior to 1800 there really was true scarcity as a natural phenomenon,

and since modern civilization was still rather young,

there was plenty of room for growth, so both requirements were satisfied.

Today however, these 2 requirements are gone

and the Monetary System is in serious trouble and under great stress.

Just look at all the financial industry problems that have destroyed lives

in the past few years alone. They are impossible to ignore.

Scarcity has been eliminated by the advent of technology,

and with the absence of scarcity, there is simply less growth.

We have reached a point where we can produce more of everything

than we can consume and the only true expansion left is into the stars,

which itself is severely restricted by cost.

In the Monetary system, money, or debt,

is the life blood of the system and therefore it is necessary

to continuously create new debt to validate the existing debt.

So our financial manipulators are always seeking new ways

to justify the creation of additional debt.

They are willfully blind or blatantly ignorant of the root concerns.

Just look at how in debt our society is right now

as compared to just 50 years ago.

It's important to notice

that it was around 1980 when the debt started to skyrocket,

which coincides perfectly with the fact that this was also the time

when technology started to seriously expand,

giving humanity the ability to make life better for everyone,

if the technology would be used that way.

To better understand our present social instability,

we should review the principle physical events

that have led up to our current mess.

To help with this, let's establish a time reference.

The two dates shown aren't specifically important,

but just separate the time line into three distinct regions.

Now let's start adding vital information that will help you understand

how we got to where we are in today's world.

Prior to 1800, the world was a low energy society.

Why? Because throughout all recorded history before this time,

the primary energy conversion machine for doing work was the human being,

and a healthy human can only produce about 0.1 Horse Power (HP).

In comparison, a washing machine motor is more powerful,

averaging 0.5 Horse Power (HP).

Regardless of this low power number, 98% of all work done during this time

was a result of human labor, because humanity had not yet developed

advanced technology to do the work for them.

The other 2% came from sources outside of human muscle,

which we will call non-human energy.

The sources of this energy came from animals,

like horses and oxen, and crude technology like windmills and water wheels.

Because the human being is so limited,

the output from his work is also limited,

so no matter how many people you had on the job,

or how long they worked,

they could never produce quite enough to cover growing populations,

or provide a high quality of living for everyone.

If ever a few people did enjoy a decent standard of living,

it was always at the expense of the many who barely survived.

The fact is that throughout history, 95% of all people were either

peasants, serfs, slaves or indentured servants,

even up to the time of George Washington.

From the dawn of man until around 1800,

the 98% of work done by humans

and the other 2% by other means never changed,

ever.

This is over 7,000 years of recorded human history

with absolutely ZERO change in this dynamic.

This caused every society on the planet

to live in a Social Steady State,

which means there was no change in the rate of energy conversion at all.

There was no fundamental change in how people worked to produce goods,

and so scarcity prevailed everywhere.

Now just prior to the year 1800, a very significant event occurred.

In 1782, James Watt developed the first steam engine.

This invention was the beginning of an entirely new way to do work.

It was the beginning of the widespread use of non-human energy

and since that time there has been an accelerated effort to build

bigger, faster and more efficient machines to convert energy into work.

That effort has spread throughout the world,

with the United States as a primary leader.

Over the next 100 years, from 1800 to 1900,

we find that the two energy lines started changing significantly!

The Non-Human Energy line moved up, and the Human Energy line moved down.

In America, studies were done in the 1920's

to see what social impact this change was having.

Data was gathered on every basic industry in North America,

charting the growth of production, the rates of energy conversion,

declining man hours, and the overall effects on employment.

It was predicted that if the trends continued at the same rate,

the lines would cross and look like this.

Humanity was evolving from a low energy society

to a high energy society as the two lines switched places.

This new condition is the exact opposite of what had occured

all throughout recorded history, and that is no small change.

Time to get a bit technical, so bear with me:

As of 1992, noted by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce and Census,

America had over 35.3 billion horsepower of installed prime movers.

What does that mean?

Prime movers are mechanical engines, turbines, and work animals,

which originally convert fuels or force (such as wind or falling water)

into work and power. Let's break it down by person.

Prior to 1800, the average society had an energy conversion

of just 2000 kg calories per person.

Does that number sound familiar?

What is the calorie intake

that is labeled on virtually every food item you buy?

A 2,000 calorie diet.

So it makes sense that if people are the primary workers

their energy is limited by their average calorie intake.

Now back to 1992:

35.3 Billion HP equals over 22 TRILLION kg calories

and the population of the United States was just over 250 million people.

So in 1992, America was converting more then 89,000 kg calories per person

of just non-human energy.

That is over 44 times larger, a gain of over 4000%,

as compared to the average society prior to 1800.

This was a significant source of American growth and prosperity.

We were the first and only country

that was able to produce more then it could consume.

Fast forward to today and consider these implications

in our globally connected world.

So what does the Monetary system have to do with all this?

The Monetary system has started to falter over the past 90 years,

because the conditions of life on this planet have drastically changed.

The two major requirements of the Monetary System to survive,

scarcity and growth, no longer truly exists.

The globe has stabilized as far as growth is concerned

and scarcity has been eradicated by technology.

As a result, we've experienced serious economic problems,

and any solution that has ever been tried has served only

as a patchwork solution of bubble gum

in a cracking dam that is destined to break.

No solution ever addresses the fundamental problem,

because to do so

would require a fundamental shift in our economic structure,

and the people who have benefited the most from this system

refuse to change the game.

The surveys done in the 1920's covered every manufacturing industry,

which were then plotted on charts.

This chart is a summary of all those findings averaged together.

The first line reflects physical production.
