    Which goes to show that money is no longer an instrument and tool of real trade, but a toy in the hands of speculators, who are using it to change the dimensions of trade goods, and for blackmail against humanity.

    Much of the present environmental mess is caused by the banks' deregulated money creation powers, demanding conversion into a wasteful supply of resources to maintain the value of imaginary monies created from the air to be used for the destruction of humanity and the ecology.
