Deception, an Ancient Strategy
Paper currency is nothing new. For ages the trick of money manipulation has been played against the workers in every nation and every empire. But while paper money as a medium of exchange is nothing new there does exist something new this time around.
In the past when a country has embarked upon the deterioration of its currency's value, there have been unwilling neighboring countries to counter the trick. When a leader of a nation has culled the coins, the people in the leader's country have turned to a neighbor's medium of exchange for protection. In addition, other powerful nations have exposed the tricks in the past knowing that doing so would bring the fraud to a quick end. Waves of hyperinflation, country by country and region by region, have criss-crossed the planet throughout history but never before has the money trick been played against the entire world in complete tandem.
The Conspiracy of Deception
The central banks of the world, for the first time in history all together, kicked off the final stage of this historic fiat trick over 40 years ago when all over the globe the coins had their silver removed, the currency had its gold convertability removed and the guns were taken away (USA excepted on this one).
Gold quickly began to respond to the trick in the 1970's by moving up rapidly from the prior $35 peg. Suddenly, gold to the public was selling at a price nearly three times that amount and there was no stopping it there. Based against a fiat trick using a new currency suddenly backed by only faith in current and future lawmakers, why wouldn't it continue to move up in value? But since the USA's currency was the primary world reserve currency and since the nation was in a solid global, industrial, manufacturing, exporting position, the Federal Reserve and central banks around the globe were in a position to play two very important cards.
Distraction Number One
Central banks were holding a lot of gold and the gold and silver market were tied into these banks in such a way to make manipulation and regulation of them quite easy. These banks, with the help of govt lawmakers and bullion banks looking for profit, were able to squash the rising price of gold and silver at various moments during its 1970 - 1980 run. Either by cutting the paper prices in half, ramping the supply of real or leased out bullion, manipulation of the tape, or through regulations, the central banks remained in control over the price of honest, real money that under normal circumstances would have continued to run and run as it searched for the true relationship value against a fiat backed by nothing.
Distraction Number Two
Since the USA had a balance sheet in relatively good shape still by the end of the 1970s, the Federal Reserve Bank of the USA was able to halt inflation and the rise of precious metals abruptly during the political storm that took out the then one-term leader of the nation.
During the prior decade of the 70s they had kept things on a course they could control, this allowed fiat currency to get a foot-hold around the world. The use of fiat currencies which had no intrinsic value in every nation of the world were adopted even though the pains of inflation and the rising price of commodities and metals weren't fooled.
At this point, the second distraction technique was applied. The relative short-term value of the fiat currency was given a boost. Interest rates on savings were increased well past the double-digit mark and the workers of the world found that this paper they held could actually increase their wealth as long as they put their trust into it. So savers started saving money in savings accounts earning big interest payments. Since central banks set these interest rates themselves they were able to manipulate the ideas and beliefs of those workers holding, saving, earning and spending the newly born fiat money.
Finally, given the time that had elapsed since the start of the global fiat tandem trick and the newly found trust and performance of it, the dishonesty and corrupted systems could now be leveraged up. The illusion became a reality, the monster broke free.
Moving on to the Divisions
Around the globe, fiat money remained as good as the words and numbers printed on it - but only because now people believed in those words. The alternatives (honest gold and silver) were beaten back by the central banking powers and the media. Without a congregation to follow them, honesty became a dying religion.
Moving into the 1990's, dishonesty became the normal. The money that the world believed in held dishonest value, and the laws and regulations became more and more dishonest, the leaders more corrupt than even before, and the workers and average people around the world watched the whole show and were entertained. The spectators, as they have always, ignored truth and embraced the new resulting illusions, deceptions, distractions and the crimes. Stealing from the weaker nations and the weaker neighbors, stealing from honest workers and the builders of things, stealing from the future generations all further strengthened the power of fiat money.
The divisions between the executives and the workers, between the producers and the consumers, between the educators and the students, between the rich and poor exploded during fiat's strong period. If a group of people or a nation found themselves on the wrong side of the global fiat conspiracy, watch out! Argentina, El Salvador, Iraq, Afganistan, the Palestinians and many other nations learned quickly what it's like to be on the bad side of global forces or to become a sacrifice for evil agendas. But suffering wasn't simply directed at large nations, also labor organizations and groups of workers like airline traffic controllers, soldiers, teachers and many other sections of society faced the brunt of a fully corrupted global society. The examples around the world are too numerous to list but the final step in the division process is what we see today, race, religion, color, ideas... everything must be divided to protect the corrupt systems. Even the family itself must be divided. Chaos must result and will result; those who have taken control of the global corrupt fiat and now completey dishonest and counter-productive economic systems can only remain in power if it does - this is because prosperity under today's system is impossible.
History Takes Revenge
Silver and gold don't follow such rules. The days of price manipulation and flooding supply are numbered. The days of cheap energy are coming to a close also which will only drive up the realization that honesty equals work. The silver is running out and gold is being hoarded by the ton. The largest producer of rare metals and gold refuses to share them and silently sucks in more wherever it can be found. The fall of fiat money comes when the perception of it wakes up to the truth.
Around the globe, the tokens have no silver and the money has no intrinsic value. Nearly everywhere, the rights and means to self protection have been taken away and the people have even been convinced it's for their own good. History has been very clear about how that works out.
When people see prices really take off and their standards of living drop like a rock they will want revenge and this revenge will trigger two downstream events: People will throw away the money and seek safe havens as they always have since ancient times. And the cost of this dishonest global trick will dissolve the world into chaos and war.
Which outcome takes hold first will be of amazing importance.
