Yeah I guess, then we could revert back to the stone age. Cool maybe we can go on more crusades like the middle ages or something. Kill people for no reason, excellent idea.
if there is a NWO, they will be a government for the people.
“Give me control of a nation’s money, and I care not who writes its laws…” Meyer Armschel Rothschild 1790
“If you want to be the slaves of banks and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let the banks create money..” Josiah Stamp, Governor of the Bank of England 1920
The increase in loans created by banks over the years is conclusive proof that banks do create “money” out of nothing – in Britain loans etc. amounted to £1.2 billion in 1948. The figure was £14 billion by 1963 rising to £680 billion by 1997and by 2003, bolstered by the boom in property prices and increase in mortgages to support them, it had reached close to £1200 billion [11]. These are big increases in real terms even allowing for inflation – it is these which have enabled the economy to expand enormously, and as a result living standards for many people have improved substantially.... but it has been done on borrowed money. What is credit to the bank is debt to the rest of us.

In theory you're essentially describing a Utopian society. Yes in this type of society everyone could specialize in one aspect and trade it or whatever for something else, but we are nowhere near this point in society.
In regards to the pyramids, there was no hard currency but everything comes at a cost. Materials had to be traded for other materials and laborers needed to be fed in order to work.
And I will get to that article tomorrow, seems very interesting.
but we are nowhere near this point in society.

I keep wondering why we keep building more and more subdivisions when there is hardly enough pavement for all the traffic we have now. Then I remember twenty years ago when everybody in my line of work had to work out of state just to have a job. Then we were putting in cross country water and sewer lines that are serving todays subdivisions that allow us to stick closer to home. I don't think we have had to work out of town now in 15 years because of all the Subdivions going up. Is the population growing so fast that we have to clutter things up like this? People could live off the land almost self supporting. If they raised thier own beef and dairy cows and grew a garden. I guess the Almish have tryed that already though haven't they? I wonder if we should have a law that only allows so many people ber sqare mile. I'd love to live on a sqare mile or so myself. I guess there wouldn't be enough land for everyone to do that though. You couldn't afford a tractor to till the soil unless you worked somewhere. You could buy a mule with the corn you sold that you tilled with a hoe but that would mean working sun up to sundown in planting season.
Something else I wonder is why a thousand times why am I going to work every freaking morning doing the same old monotonous job every single day? I mean in the old days didn't you get a break after you got all the corn planted? I guess we'll just sit around and watch the corn grow now boys, I hope it rains soon.
Is it because of demand? Aparently it is population that keeps the world spinning. One family will someday need three or four houses, or three or four cars and on and on it goes. Imagine if the population could stay exactly the same all the time, that would be hard to do but if it could, at some point there would be no need for new houses except one should wear out and fall to the ground. No new houses means I would not have to go to work as much. The other thing that keeps the world hard at work is the necessity to repair things, nothing lasts forever no matter how good it is made. Like today on the way to the lake the Suburban lost oil pressure and before I could get pulled off the interstate it started knocking, looks like I'm going to need to borrow some more money to keep that repair guy doing that same old job he does every day, busting his knuckles and cursing. I guess from the top of the pyramid the problems are far greater than my blown engine.
It would be interesting to see what the top 100 problems in the world are from a government standpoint.
The only thing a man really needs is food and shelter. I love this Mac G4 I'm typing on now, I couldn't have payed for it without doing that same old job I do every day. It seems like we work hard for a few nice things a nice home and a vacation. I guess the only thing I would like is more spare time and I haven't worked a third as hard as my Dad had to work in his day.
We live in pretty good times, I don't wish to return to the day of the out house with no running water and power in the house. I think most everyone could use a little more spending money these days though. I think the money system is the best thing they ever came up with. Could you imagine trying to trade out everything you buy and sell.
Say you need $3,000.00 for that engine huh? Need any pipe layed by chance?

Yep we need people to do this stuff but imagine if there was no money in the first what would people do then???? Would we not still have cars??? Trains, planes??? Did the wright brothers not create their first plane with timber than comes from trees grown in the woods that costs nothing to grow. Therefore what about oil, gas etc. etc. ALL of which comes from the ground free of charge.

Actually I can fix it all it needs is bottom end bearings. I would have almost zero time to spend studying things of importance though. If a fellow like me can find such important material. I'm starting to think all I'm going to achieve is spinning my wheels from the cradle to the grave.
A little economical car wouldn't pull a boat very well now would it? I know I know give up the boat too right?
I can also build a house if I want, In fact I can do nearly anything I want to do the only problem is I was born without a personality and I'm off to see the Wizard the Wonderful Wizard of Oz so I might have a real personality and actually be able to enjoy conversing with people. I have seen people build a home little by little and never borrow a dime on it. My house is payed for, the point is we still struggle, we could save a lot of money by eating rice and beans instead of eating out so much but its easy to buy something out a lot of times in this fast paced society.
If we were watching the corn grow maybe we wouldn't need a fast food restaraunt on every corner. If we were watching the corn grow there wouldn't be so many cars on the highways polluting the air. Do we even need all these skyscrapers and pavement? People could spend thier evenings picking the weeds out of the crops instead of in a traffic jam. If you look at a picture of most major citys it looks like a pile of rubbish and clutter. Like when I see a picture of the Holy Land, I think man I just can't picture Jesus walking around out there with no place to lay his head, healing the sick and raising the dead.

I believe we would still have all those things. But take oil for instance it takes a lot of energy to get oil out of the ground, sure its in the ground given to us by nature but it takes a lot of power to harvest it. Somebody has to pay the bill to get those workers to do the job which in the end all translates to beans and cornbread or socks and shoes. Someone always wants more beans and cornbread than thier fair share though don't they. They want more socks and shoes than one person can wear. A lot of beans and cornbread will buy a nice water fountain inside a Penthouse in Trump Plaza with a Limo waiting outside to take you wherever you like.
I guess its the people who hold claims to all these resources that really isn't fair. It kind of reminds me of the game we played as children called King of the mountain. Its hard to knock that top guy off.

By the way it seems like this topic has really gone off on a tangent.

this is the best timeline I've ever seen on it, it's not hard to understand , and you'll get the basic idea of WTF is up , with the NWO

Wow man according to that the new World order is well under way How much do they have left, Just letting the public in on it?
it should also give you a different flavor for the so-called common knowledge [ mainstream/popular opinion ] about our history. you'll notice some popular beliefs are missing some/most of this info....why ?
