Government, as executive and regulatory function, is analogous to the central nervous system.

As money and banking are analogous to blood and the circulation system.

The problem of democracy is that it removes the ability of those given power to seriously plan long term and makes their personal objective of being elected and re-elected all-encompassing.

Which leaves the real power with the banks.

Ask yourself, could the capital markets function, if the government wasn't borrowing up trillions in surplus investment money? Obviously not. The secret sauce of capitalism is public debt backing private wealth.

While markets need money to circulate, people see it as signal to extract and store.

Consider that blood is a medium, while fat is a store and you will have some idea of why our system is imploding.

The military and wars are just a burn pit, to make it go away, so more can be borrowed. That's why they can be so strategically inept and no one is held to account.

That is what Assange is really taking on.

I'm trying to push having Assange/Manning as the write-in ticket for 2024. Considering who the parties will likely put up, given Trump and Biden are the current front runners, it would make a serious contrast.
