How is Political Money Dysfunctional and Exploitative?
Political money is inefficient and inequitable – many needs go unmet because the supply of money is deficient.
Periodic cycles of depression and inflation derive from the actions of central banks.
Money concentrates power and wealth – the rich get richer; everyone else gets poorer.
Who decides whose interests will be favored?
Conventional political money causes social and international conflict and ecological destruction.
Notes:
The Great Depression of the 1930’s provides a prime example of the systemic flaws, as do the innumerable examples of hyperinflation that has occurred in various countries.
