Our government and society will never be great until we reform the monetary system.
I know that I harp on this all the time, but no one listens or pays attention, so I'm gonna keep doing it.
Say that a country wants to put $1 BILLION into circulation. Well, they decided to let a privately owned, non-government institution print that $1 BILLION. Does that privately-owned, non-government institution just give the money to the country? NO! They lend it to them, at interest, say 5% [or any arbitrary number].
So, there is now $1 BILLION in circulation, but that country is now in debt, owing $1,050,000,000.
It is IMPOSSIBLE for that country to pay the money back, because that amount of money doesn't exist!
How is this beneficial to a nation?
Prove me wrong.
