There will be a lot to look back on when this recession turns the corner and begins heading up out of the pit. Pit Divers may be the ones who provide the world with a solution during the next one. Business colleges like Harvard and others have the second-most in-the-face challenge of their history. That challenge is this: Do we teach aspiring young business leaders of tomorrow about the wrong-doings of the worlds most repressive business? Or do we continue to teach only the about the "golden light" that this business can bring? That golden light being 'status and wealth'... What is the wrong-doing...and what is the most repressive business? This answer will undoubtedly be pounced upon as soon as I reveal it by all those in the thralls of its clutches. Some of you already know the answer while billions in our world sit doe-eyed and clueless. Doe-eyed and clueless is the world that the most repressive business hopes to keep the populous in, so that it can continue under the radar while actually being part of everyone's daily life. It would have you focus on illegal activities such as drugs, while the world comes to its rescue and largely ignores its history of populous repression. It would have you believe that without what they do, the world would crash and burn. Is that true or would it be only those who actively participate at the top of the game that would crash and burn if they were not able to do what they do? They would point out that what they do is not illegal. While this may be true, it should be made illegal. If not illegal, it certainly is immoral. The icon here is not immoral or illegal but like anything, if common sense is ignored, it will certainly hurt one of more people. And in this case, it has hurt untold millions if not billions of people. The business of which I speak is that of money, of financial institutions, of the leaders of these institutions, and of the elite few who direct the whole shebang. These elite few and the larger minions in power over it, affect the world's populous for both good and bad but the it largely affects us for the later...the bad. This is called the most repressive business because it is exactly that. It uses its root product "money" like a drug in order to hook you or rather addict you for life. With you the addict, and they as the supplier, is the perfect business to be in. One of the greatest expanding experiments the world over is that of Credit. It can be found in every civilization and has been going on since before biblical times. Speaking of biblical times, we find an early warning to all who read it: "For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." -Timothy 6:10 (King James Version) Even the founders of the United States, namely Thomas Jefferson, had warned: "If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation; the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered." All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. Thomas Jefferson |
