Minority rules:
Scientists discover tipping point for the spread of ideas

Scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have found that when just 10 percent of the population holds an unshakable belief, their belief will always be adopted by the majority of the society. The scientists, who are members of the Social Cognitive Networks Academic Research Center (SCNARC) at Rensselaer, used computational and analytical methods to discover the tipping point where a minority belief becomes the majority opinion. The finding has implications for the study and influence of societal interactions ranging from the spread of innovations to the movement of political ideals.

What this means is we only need 10% of the population to understand how these few individuals are robbing us and
enslaving us to transform the narrative society believes in, to stop them.

When people are asked if they understand money, most of them immediately assume the  question is if they know "how to handle it", or how to earn it, but rarely understand the question for its real meaning of WHAT IS MONEY in itself, because most people assume wrongly they already know what it is.
Once we understand what money is, then we'll see the answer is more complicated than at first thought because the consequences of misunderstanding the answer costs the people a lot of "money" ironically.
On the other hand those people who do know what money is and how it is created (how it comes into existence, not how it is earned as in "let's make money") do have a substantial advantage over those who do not know, because they understand the real power of money as a medium of exchange and as the "blood" of the economy, with all this means as an important element in producing and maintaining a way of life for millions of people worth billions of working hours and the services and products it provides, making it possible to enjoy a modern standard of living where nobody individually produces everything he-she needs to live it.

Our modern way of living means we need each other in deeper forms than the use of "money" has led us to see.        The use of money has led us to believe wrongly that as soon as we paid for the service or product we are benefiting from, our "debt" towards the persons we paid has been totally solved.     But the truth is that we all need each other to be there when the other needs "to purchase" again the product or service we're offering as our addition to the services or products available in the economy, therefore it is to our benefit to make sure everyone in society is "active" in the economy, and understand buyers are as important as the sellers who satisfy our needs.

Since we founded a society that is complex in the sophistication of services and products impossible for any one to produce themselves, we needed a form of exchange to deal with each other, and "money" became one of those forms, but not the only one.
There are "credit exchanges" as explained by Thomas Greco in his book "The End of Money and the Future of Civilization" which have been active for hundreds of years in the past as shown in David Graeber's book "DEBT: The First 5,000 Years" with the Phoenicians in the Mediterranean sea trading with the Romans for over a hundred years, even while the Romans already had their own currency, the Phoenicians used a Credit Exchange Mechanism avoiding the use of money.
There are at the moment several exchange systems functioning in the US and even in Greece where the regular currency is scarce (the Euro) they spontaneously are re-creating exchange systems without it as we can see in this video of VOLO.



UNDERSTANDING HOW MONEY IS CREATED TODAY USING
FRACTIONAL RESERVE BANKING
AND WHY BANKERS END UP WITH CONTROL OVER OUR LIVES
Once we understand how the banking system functions today, we can't avoid thinking
IT IS ORGANIZED CRIME AT ITS WORST
"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning."
