An Inflated Conclusion

The appearance of the co-ordinated cartel pincer movement has the claws closing very hard and tightening its grip. Focusing exclusively on the target of profit deems the attack effectively invisible and once it's appreciated, it's too late to react. The plan also has the appearance of becoming very transparent, though only in hindsight. The 'blame' is pushed beyond anyone's control and nothing can be done about the unfortunate result of making money. Shame. Not wealth creation as that’s not possible, but simple and continued redistribution. The poor masses (majority) give up their money without a real fight to the super wealthy (minority) not realising there is an (almost) invisible war going on. An unseen struggle of immense proportions.

Some fight back as their countries are raped. Oil-rich ground. Black and disgustingly tarry liquid. All that is seen though is the 'clean' profit after the crude has been processed and cleaned up. Stark reminders happen occasionally when a supertanker has a 'crash'. The mess is then seen for what it is. Crude oil is dirty. Filthy, black gold laundered into 'clean' money. It's the only motivation to handle the mess.

Money

Without the enormous financial gain, oil would not be touched. Oil is only a (non-sustainable) source to be converted into wealth using the redistribution principle. It cannot be recycled directly, but by 'ever-greening' (exploitation of new opportunities) more money can be made.

Tax

A second bite at the cherry. The massive problems 'created' from the single use of oil use are then exploited to 'create' even greater wealth. Use a dirty resource (product) to make the filthy lucre and then transform the problem into greater wealth.

Clearly, since wealth cannot be created the reason to amass so much apparent wealth is to create more control. That has the potential to be created as the psychological chains can be converted into real terror. But that reality is based upon the psychological. Incarceration. Restrictions or the total removal of freedoms.

Inflation: the very fact alone of interest being added is inflationary. If £1 is borrowed and 10% interest is added, this increases the debt instantly to £1.10p and will be compounded. The increasing debt appears to be partially offset by salaries increasing. Theoretically in a roughly parallel direction. Really, this is actually a cause of inflation and ensures the perpetual upward movement of yield, but downward movement of its value. Inflation is illusory as without it there would be no growth and all would remain static. It's part of the conditioning to expect everything to increase. Always and forever. Unless there is growth (profiteering) then conditioning has made people - the masses - feel unhappy and are then made happy again as profit is made by all. Perverse in reality. Life would still go onwards if profiteering stopped and arguably in a much more peaceful mode.

A change in attitude wouldn't happen 'overnight', but it would eventually win through in the generations to come as the realisation that theft becomes redundant. To destroy today the shackles of tomorrow that constrain real growth. The growth in developing the individual as a source of value, not the wealth of the already wealthy: made at our expense. This just perpetuates enslavement. The wealthy are 'created' and the illusion is of creation. It's how it cynically perpetuates the disastrous problem. The non-wealthy being sucked into the problem really convinced that they are actually becoming similarly wealthy. They are not and they can't. It’s like donating £1 to a £millionaire. Totally illogical. Whatever personal wealth is gained, more is taken away. The overall 'profit' is negative. In the redistribution principle, the flow of the illusory wealth of the masses is into the private banks.

This flow is enormous. And unnoticed. Governments borrow and these borrowings are then repaid to the private banks (Federal Reserve System, Bank of England...) - with interest - through taxes.

Northern Rock

Taxes go up and up and up, but the overall picture is distorted to mask that all outgoings exceed incomes. This has always been happening, but nowadays (second half 2008) has become extremely visible. The curtain drawn across the stage is gradually becoming more and more threadbare. Negative growth, but happiness has been the illusion, but the global masses are still being squeezed in their real pain and misery, yet they seem to be happy and content.
