Money Equals Energy, But Right Now, The Math Doesn’t Add Up

30 March 2018

 - Money evolved out of the barter system, where people were limited in what they could exchange and receive. Essentially, people could only trade what they had for what the other person had. For example, I could trade you my apple for your orange, but if I didn’t want an orange, then there is really no reason for me to sell you my apple. Money revolutionized exchange systems by giving sellers the opportunity to sell their energy output to people interested in it, in exchange for a medium (money), that could be used to purchase whatever they wanted as opposed to being confined to receiving only what the other person possessed (orange). It really was a natural evolution in the transfer of value from one person to the next.

The underlying assumption to all of this is that the medium of exchange (money) is a truthful and just indicator of our energetic value; as in our goods, services, and time are accurately priced to the market value of them, a.k.a. priced to what they are worth. Sadly, that is not a fundamental principle in our current system anymore, as the money value (price) and the actual real world value (energy and demand) have diverged apart from each other creating a schism in our economic system.

Unfortunately society has moved from a sound money economy where money is anchored down to objective rules, markets are free for everyone, and there is little to no central control over it all; to that of a fiat matrix where money has no anchor in objective reality, markets are heavily regulated, and central authorities control the economies, usually to benefit of the élite class and the detriment of the majority of the population.
