“Civilizations die from suicide, not by murder” Arnold Toynbee
Mr. Toynbee, a twentieth-century historian, got that right, but failed to correctly identify the defining characteristic of the suicide. Namely, Death by Money. First the money is degraded, then follows the degradation and subsequent collapse of society.
That is what we are witnessing in the world today. Money was degraded to the point of being legislated out of circulation. It was replaced with paper debt notes. They are called money, but in reality, are the antithesis of money. The result was the degradation of societies into basket-case economies.
In the West, fewer and fewer producers support more and more bludgers with hands forever outstretched.
Into that ghastly and already terminal moral mess, were imported violent immigrants who adhere to a stone age ideology that demands conquest, subjugation and slavery.
As the sandwich board draped around the neck of the somewhat scruffy gentleman dolefully trudging around London used to state back in the fifties: ‘The End is Nigh’.
Death by Money has struck again.
Where do civilized people go now?
