Crime Against Humanity: the Ambiguous Money Cycle – Gold Standard Cycle, 4

Such humanoid attitude towards money is further eased by a sort of mental inertia: just as it affects objects resisting their changes of direction in space due to their mass, so inertia affects minds resisting their updating in time due to lowering their guard. At any moment within an ambiguous money cycle its victims identify the money of yesterday with the money of today. And the whole point, instead, is they’re not the same money at all.

The harsh truth is, there is no reason under the sun but fraud for a state or anyone to borrow at face value plainly valueless currency created out of thin air.
Pure fiat money in itself would not be bad as long as monetary sovereignty belongs to its legitimate owner – you –, as long as we are all perfectly aware it is fiat money without any intrinsic value whatsoever from its very inception, and as long as it is not debt money and no ambiguous money cycle takes place. A pivotal feature of money is that of being store of value in time, and a money is made ambiguous for the very opposite aim: drilling a hidden hole at the bottom of your water supply.

For the sake of clarity, let’s consider a full ambiguous money cycle, full in the sense of moving through all the forms of money.

It starts with a money having full intrinsic value: what you see is what you get, and, say, that coin is in pure gold and its worth equals its weight exactly. People get used to it and everything’s fine, except maybe a possible excessive scarcity of money which limits exchanges and thus the development of the social potential for wealth.

Then moneypulators begin to debase money by watering down gold with increasing percentages of base metals. It has been observed how those “replacement” base metals are selected according to their attitude to mimic gold and silver; whatever the cause of this inclination to value certain metals, now its inertia begins.
