The moral is that absolute power does not corrupt absolutely, it corrupts the kind of people that love free money. And the people it doesn’t corrupt are the ones the people that love free money steal their money from. But the phrase allows the people who love free money to excuse their actions by agreeing amongst their own kind that everyone is like them so they are really just the lucky ones that we all wish we could be.  

So now everyone is saying is was a mistake let workers own homes through the liberal lending policies Freddie Mac and Fannie May. But the way I interpret it, this OECD report says the people who write our paychecks to themselves are who is causing the economy to collapse.

I have a feeling there’s no plan. I don’t think there’s any such thing as aliens and no secret underground labs where new technologies are churning out an armada of spaceships that need a huge workforce to man so we can defend ourselves from creatures from another galaxy. I don’t think the rich people of the world have a clue. I think the rich and powerful are really just part of an elderly and irrelevant culture that we haven’t yet learned, or are learning now, how much we need to cut our ties with what they bring to the economy. Their abuse of power is embedded in their way of life dating back to the beginning of time. And it’s almost admirable that they still fight for their ridiculous principles when they could do so much better for themselves by just letting us use more of our own money.

They’ve grown up with these core belief systems while having held fast to them through so many obvious lessons in history that should have taught them they would be better off building a real economy while giving up on all this absolute power/invisible ring thing. If they truly believe in the past, it’s hard to fault them for their ignorance but it makes it hard to get them out of the way of the future if we are sympathetic to their historical views. In fact it might actually be our liberal understanding of their traditions that allows their seeming social mental disorders to thrive.

Rich people have a long held the tradition of inbreeding to keep their money amongst themselves. Even for the ones who have earned their degrees in law and economics without paying their way through the education system when they’re better suited for washing dishes or digging ditches, their money still comes with all kinds of strings attached through the trusts they inherit it through. So even if they want to break with the traditions of greed and arrogance their parents handed down to them, they go broke if they try to change for not living up to the instructions their forefathers left behind for how their money, or our money, should be used.

It seems in the end whenever history has had them over a barrel where they have to start to give us our money in realistic quantities, like when the American Revolution allowed George Washington to cut our ties with “the people who love free money” but he was talked into letting them have their way with us anyway, we cave in and go back to serving them with a few hundred more years of their lives of privilege. Washington came close to putting his foot down and making them work for a living, work in an economy that pays real wages, but buckled and we’ve been paying for it ever since. 

Take Israel for example. A recent study came out that shows that the same European Jews who claim to be the long lost descendants of the tribes of Israel who were driven out of Jerusalem by the Romans are in fact not the original Jews at all. As tradition tells the story, Jews do not proselytize their faith meaning they have a strict tradition of handing their religion down from generation to generation without letting in outsiders going all the way back to Moses. But the truth is that they have been every bit as aggressive as other religions in spreading their cult to the masses. It’s just that as the Roman empire become Christianized, the memory of what they did to Jesus by having Him crucified forced them to have to keep a low profile in how they spread their faith around after the year AD 300.

Since Christianity has become such a dominate faith in Europe, Jews have been forced to keep their faith much more to themselves. But the truth turns out to be that when the Romans are said to have run them out of their promised land of Israel in AD 70, the Romans actually were not in the business of exiling whole races of people to other lands, they simply didn’t have any way to go about transferring hundreds of thousands of people from one place to another to be resettled. They took slaves as they needed them but by and large farmers and tradesmen who produce the spoils of war have traditionally always been left in tact to serve their new masters, often willingly in hopes of getting better accommodation than their previous rulers offered which was the hope that the new rich people would let them keep more of their own money than the old ones.

And there’s another thing most people don’t understand about Jews. There are two factions of the Hebrew faith as it relates to Judaism, orthodox, who the OECD report claims are at the bottom of the economic ladder in Israel along with the Arab Israelis who are allowed to live outside the fences, and Zionists. In fact even the title Jew is divisive. Jew refers to the tribe of Judah, who David, from David and Goliath, and King Solomon his son, as well as Jesus, are descendents of. But to orthodox Jews, the anointing of David as King of the Jews, and then later his son Solomon, was heresy as they don’t believe in a King of the Jews, or really King of the Hebrews as Jew refers only to one of the 12 tribes of Israel, the tribe of Judah.

Orthodox Jews believe God chose the twelve tribes of Israel, the descendents of Isaac, or maybe Ishmael, which would make the chosen people the Arabs,, no one knows for sure who the actual chosen people are - but God chose to love them above all the other races. And for that, God can be their only ruler, or the ruler of the Arab tribes if God was talking about Abraham’s son Ishmael when he gave them the deed to the land of Israel. The question of a Hebrew King has been an argument going on between Jews and the other 11 tribes of Israel, or Abraham, or really Jacob, Isaacs’ son, since the dawn of their faith. And since orthodox Jews don’t believe in a King of the Jews, whenever there is a Jewish King, they get to be the source of cheap labor that the kingdom makes its free money off of.

So when the Romans forced the Jews into exile, it was only their leaders that were removed from Israel while the work force was left in tact to provide products and services for the Roman replacements. What this new study shows is that when Zionist Jews were run out of their homeland, orthodox Jews and the other Hebrew tribes stayed. Since Zionist Jews, who were the ruling class in Israel back then, much like our wealthy rulers are today, they don’t like to work, just make a whole lot of free money. So wherever they went after being run out of their homeland, they opened up news species of Judaism in order to attract people to them to give them more free money, which is what all organized religions are designed to do. And they take their money from people who truly believe in spirituality. 

After World War II, European Jews conveniently forget who they were while beginning to claim they are the original Jews who were run out of the Holy Lands by the Romans. Being as they had been beaten up so badly by Hitler, they got a lot of support from the Western world to resettle in their supposed homeland where they would finally have a nation of their own to defend instead of simply being a wandering people systematically persecuted by the rulers of that lands they settle in.

The original plan for the creation of the modern state of Israel was to invade Palestine and establish the old borders the bible describes as the Land of Milk and Honey. Then they opened up their borders to Jews around the world to allow them to come home to The Promised Land. When there was supposed to be enough Jews to outnumber Arabs in their new country, they would be insured of winning all elections. So the made their new country a religious democratic state and put the Zionist star of King David on their flag. The problems began when not enough Jews wanted to return to their motherland in order to outnumber Arabs there.

It turns out Jews not as persecuted around the world as they themselves once thought. In fact even the arch enemy of Israel, the president of Iran Ahmajinadad, has excused the assertion that he’s anti-Semitic even though he wants the state of Israel wiped off the map. He claims it would be impossible for him to hate Jews because they run his government and banking system where Iran could not survive without them. What he actually says is that he hates Israel, not Jews. And perhaps rightly so.

You see Jews being outsiders in whatever country they settle down in while also being highly educated and part of a worldwide network of other sophisticated Jews, or Hebrew descendants as they do not all come from the tribe of Judah, are highly prized as governmental managers for the rulers of the lands they inhabit. Jews are extremely efficient ministers of governments being uniquely connected to international trade and finance systems through other Jews helping run other countries while they don’t tend to set their sites on holding power because they are minorities wherever they go and would have no way to control those under them who would likely see them as interlopers.

But their history has enjoyed very comfortable positions closer to wealth and power than the original inhabitants of the lands they live in who provide the resources that enable the wealthy in those nations to rule them. So when Israel offered to give its persecuted people a homeland, most of them stayed where they are. This was a tragic error in judgment on the part of the Zionist founders of the state because it meant under Israel’s democratic government, Arabs would outnumber them in elections so they would be ruled by Palestinians while living under a flag with a Star of David on it. That’s why you see all the turmoil there today. It’s why they have whole regions of the country fenced in and walled off from the rest of their society labeling their inhabitants as terrorists, because if they let them out, they will win all elections. But there is nothing new about that. Although the story is universally mischaracterized here in the US, most of the world knows that Jews could live in their Holy Land next to their Arab Brothers if they simply took the Star of David off their flag which would allow them to open up the country to real democratic elections.
