Unveil the Secrets behind Global Finance and Power Centers Ever wonder how we got into so much debt and how we are going to keep paying our bills when prices keep rising due to inflation? The increasing deficit of our country adversely affects everyone as the debt keeps climbing and the printing press keeps rolling. Even those of us who are not personally in debt can't escape this Beast since our investments need to compensate for a higher cost of living while our money's purchasing power gets weaker. Our grandchildren will thank us if we do something about it now. They will scorn us if they find out we did nothing and mortgaged them into this world. Money and the Beast is a historical mystery book that uncovers the dealings of world leaders, previously unknown private bankers, and corporations that are now taking over the world. This book catapults us into some unexpected twists and turns throughout the developing stages of this mysterious Beast that grows larger by the day. In its chapters we will see how public faces and hidden figures have enabled this great terror that devours the earth's resources with financing schemes that place us under ever-increasing debt servitude. It is not all doom and gloom; we get to write the ending of the book. After we understand how the Beast functions, we can stop feeding it so we can realize a happier ending for us and a better beginning for our grandchildren. In this book, we will look to answer the following questions. · Can we identify who is pulling the strings? · What is the role of non-governmental organizations, and what power do they have? · How does monetary policy constrain society? · How does technology help us, and how does it harm us? · Can we revolt against the Beast, and if so, what have past revolutions taught us? · If not all roads lead to Rome, where are they now leading us? · What kinds of trade networks existed in the past, and how do they differ from the modern system? · What can we learn about the transition of power, and can we spot trends so we can predict what will happen next? · What actions can we take that differ from what we have tried before? This book takes an integrative approach, looking at a broad spectrum of issues to begin answering these questions. There is no smoking gun or any single organization to charge with the crimes committed against us. We will need to follow faint vapor trails during our investigation. These trails will lead us to the source of the power behind the Beast.
