Transferring power from institutions to individuals

I hope you take a few seconds to check out this website.

I kind of lost interest when I read the following in Chapter 3

I believe US Treasury Secretary Paulson saved the financial system from collapsing. And for that, we owe him our thanks.

Or how about this:

BUT WE MAKE THE ECONOMY WORK.

That is what Adam Smith, the father of modern economics realized. People like you and me, acting in our own self-interest, magically make the economy work.

What do all of these experts and institutions really do? They try to convince us to spend our money in a certain way. They try to figure out what will make us spend our money in a certain way. That is all they can do, because, in the end,  we are the ones who actually spend the money.

They have forgotten what Adam Smith said. They have forgotten what made our economy the greatest economy the world has ever seen.  They have forgotten that if we are allowed to spend our money in our own self-interest, magically, the economy works best.

29th, you picked the wrong site to try to push this crap!  You're part of the problem, not the solution.  BTW:  Are you Hank himself?  Sure give him a lot of credit when he is actually a damn lying thief!!!

My stomach started to churn harder and harder the further I read.  Ugh!  What a joke!

...you're an agent of Goldman Sachs?... or maybe 'The Fed'?

When somebody's having a conversation about economics and the word "magically" gets used twice in 3 short paragraphs...[shudder]...

Unless leprechauns are gonna save our economy?  Do they have a pollution-free device that creates endless energy out of old plastic shopping bags in that pot'o'gold?  That'd be magically delicious.

Full disclosure:  I'm 1/4 Irish.  So I know from leprechauns.  

29thdayman, have you even bothered doing the Crash Course....?

I'm puzzled as to how you can say "This force, which I call CIC(kick) has been rapidly transferring power from institutions to individuals" when in fact the very opposite is happening!

And whilst it's interesting to note you seem to understand the doubling phenomenon which occurs in exponential growth, I'm afraid you haven't grasped thar fact that 95% of the populace is still not using the internet for other reasons than downloading porn and pirating music!

So on the 29th day, it won't be the people's enlightenment that will cover your lilly pond....... it will be the collapse of civilisation!

My thanks to everyone for your comments. I have already incorporated them into Chapters 3 and 4.

The word "magically" in Chapter 4 was just  dumb and I have removed it.  I debated thanking Secretary Paulson in Chapter 3 but felt he had actually prevented a collapse. On reflection,  I have removed that sentence in Chapter 3, not only because of your comments but also because he used $700 billion of our money to do it.  I agree completely with the comment about institutions absorbing individual power,  as you will see in the last few lines of this comment. That is why I wrote this book.

You might be interested to know that this is the first time in my life that anyone has thought I was pro-government. But clearly several of you thought  that I was, and how the reader reacts to what I have written is what counts.

My apologies for not being clear enough. I would welcome further comments to improve what I have written.The book is online so that readers' comments can continually improve it.

Thank you for taking the time to help me out. I appreciate it.

By the way, my view is that the transfer of  power from institutions to individuals is what CIC is all about. The urgency I see in individuals learning about CIC and how to use it is that institutions are already feeling threatened by CIC and beginning to fight it  Right now, there are not enough individuals who know about CIC and how to direct it.

As I said in Chapter 5, " The clash between CI(concentrated power)I and CIC(distributed power) in the United States has already begun ...the Revolution that will determine whether or not we become a CI or a CIC United States of America."

Best regards,

George

Hey Mike.  For once I agree with everything you said!

George,

Are you serious?  You have a LONG way to go in your understanding of what's taking place in todays world.  I suggest before you go any further in this endeavor to first, take the Crash Course.  I think you'll have a change of thought immediately.  Second, I suggest you go back into Dr. Martensens reports and read them ALL.  You'll again be taken aback with a "enlightenment" period.  Third, I suggest google "Zeitgeist" and watch the whole thing.  If you think of yourself as "religious" you may want to fast forward the first 33 minutes or so as I think that may shock your world a bit more than what you'd most likely be prepared.  But thereafter, watch with an open mind, a notebook to take notes in which you can cross examine the info, and an open mind.  Fourth and most importantly, ALWAYS keep your mind OPEN to information that may go against the very fabric of your beliefs!!!!  I can't stress this step enough!!!  I won't go into specifics as to "why" but I think as you go along you'll understand.

FYI:  Before being "enlightened" myself I was a very successful "lobbyist" for quite a few of TPTB.  Before becoming "enlightened" I worked hard to achieve their goals at all costs (which also included large profits for me).  So believe me when I say, I've been where you are and know how hard it is to take the "red pill".  But once you do......Oh my God!!!!  The feelings that ensue are sometimes overwhelming!!!
