So when the cigarette corps we're in trouble because they knowingly produced a harmful addictive product they had to come up with a plan too. Lets create an anti-smoking campaign. Gums, patches, pills, hypnotism, etc... Whatever... Now that the entire financial/monetary system is being exposed for it's flaws we have every finance expert coming out with their ideas backed by their reputation. Can we please have something fresh and completely different other than propping up the system only to fail again in the future? THIS ISN'T ABOUT US, IT'S ABOUT THE CHILDREN. Ideas of sustainability would be great. Maybe in today's society we should be shying away from a monetary based debt system and focus more on an energy based economy that rewards everyone for creativity. We might need more engineers/scientists and less business folk. Reading the idea from this very well accomplished man is confusing to most people and that's the problem - It's gotten too complicated.

Sounds like you and famed investor Jim Rogers see the future of real growth. Agriculture will boom, it's just a matter of time. Cheers

Great video! This is my first time on this site and the first video I've watched. This is like a 6th sense - the sense of awareness. The quiet mind that listens at all the right moments is always open, even if it must question it's own identity. Fun topic Cheers

I hope to not sound like a statist. I believe, from my analysis in our society & economy, that we are at a critical point of advancement in thought & science. We have the ability to feed, clothe, and educate the world - but we don't. Economic concerns and propping up/protecting an identity of the system has taken presidence. We have the chance to learn from a very large mistake in the makup of the current society only to advance to a higher quality of life for everyone. This takes awareness and effort from everyone tough. What do I know, I"m just a 27 year old untraditionally educated trader with an eye for solutions to problems without experience. I have high ambitions in thought of a future without a debt system that has kept a stranglehold on everyone for years. When there is a revolution it has to start with the individual then move to education then action. The underlying reason as to why we are in this whole mess is DEBT. If there wasn't any debt there wouldn't be any money! Debt = Slavery. As long as there is growing debt there will be large swings in an economy. Just end the debt, it's that simple. The human spieces will always evolve to new ideas if they are accepted by the masses.
