មិត្តសម្លាញ់,
A few days of rest is a good ocasion to think back to all the wonderful discussions we have had at Puerta del Sol. Because discussion is another amazing feature of our movement. People are not talking about lipstick ទៀតឬ អំពី the latest application for your iPhone, or about MTV’s hottest one-hit-wonders. No, people talk about things that really matter.
ជាមួយ សមមិត្ត Ronaldo we បានពិភាក្សា នៃ 'economy', for example, and the paradox of the term. It literally means something like 'frugality'. But the prevailing ideology of our time is the exact opposite. Consumption and waste.
In Holland ឥឡូវនេះ there’s a lot of talk about lending to Greece or not. The discussion is all about money. So allow me talk about money as well, for a change.
How is it possible, I wondered, with all the wealth and prosperity that របស់យើង ពិភពលោក ផលិត, ថា all countries, rich and poor (except perhaps China), មាន weighed down by debt?
In fact, that’s not possible. All those debts, the whole crisis, is ការមួយ huge scam.
The reason that all countries have debts is due to the phenomenon of interest. The classical economic model is based on gold, ខecause gold is scarce, and therefore it has value. Pមនុស្ស ធ្លាប់ brអ៊ឹង their gold to the bank. There it was safe. The banker would give the depositor a receipt។ ទាំងនេះ receipts would become bank notes។ ពួកគេ ទទួលបាន the value of the gold they represented.
So far everything is okay. Things only started to go wrong when the bankers noted that people hardly came back to claim their gold anymore. They were content to use bills in their daily money exchange. So wមាន បានធ្វើ the bankers do: they started to emit more ‘receipts’ than they had gold in their vaults to cover it. These receipts were loaned at interest. If the bank បានខ្ចី one hundred bills, then a year later they would want a hundred and ten កំណត់ចំណាំ in return. But those ten additional notes did not even exist, ដោយសារតែ ធនាគារ never put ពួកគេ into circulation នៅកន្លែងដំបូង! That’s why there is always more debt than money to repay វាជាមួយ. And so that’s why all countries (except China) គឺនៅក្នុង debt and តែងតែ នឹង be. "Bankruptcy is part of the system."
But it gets even weirder. For while the amount of paper money far exceeds the amount of gold on ដែលវា។ គឺ initially based, the amount of electronic money is still far greater than the total of paper money.
That money is created out of nothing by the banks. ដូច្នេះខ្ញុំf a simple working man or woman puts a hundred dollars in the bank, the bank is entitled to lend it out tenfold។ ពួកគេគ្រាន់តែ បង្កើត ប្រាំបួនរយ ប្រាក់ដុល្លារs from tហ៊ីន air. It"s creative accounting at its best, and it's legal too. And although this money is purely fictitious, it can be used as if it were real. So if the bank invests these nine hundred euros in another bank, the latter can consider it 'real' money and use it to create even more money. And so on and so on. ប៉ុន្តែ the trick is that every time money is lended, there is អត្រាការប្រាក់ to be payed។ ដូច្នេះ no matter how much money there is in circulation, it will never be enough to cover all the outstanding debts.
ប៉ុន្តែផ្នែកដ៏ល្អបំផុតនៃរឿងនេះ គ្រោងការក្បត់ គឺនៅតែជា gold story.
ប្រវត្តិសាស្រ្ត gold was the pillar of the whole monetary system. But at a certain point people came to realise that gold គឺ no longer needed at all. The gold standard has been abandoned years ago. The safes are ប្រហែលជា empty. After the cornerstone បានជា បានយកចេញ it turned out that the whole castle could stay up in the air by itself.
Comrades, the revolution can only succeed if people become ដឹង of all the lies that they have been accustomed to accept as truth.
គំនិតនៃ "ប្រាក់" ក្នុងន័យនេះ។ គឺស្រដៀងទៅនឹង the idea of 'ព្រះ" in the Middle Ages.
Almost everyone believes in money សព្វថ្ងៃនេះ. Just like everyone believed in god during the Middle Ages. It was inconceivable that people did not believe in god back then. ថ្ងៃនេះ bankers would have been the priests. They បានបញ្ចេញ 'god', and they could print as much of him as they liked។ Tអូថ្ងៃ សាជីវកម្ម។ would have been the nobles. They borrowed "ព្រះ" ពី the priests, និង ជាមួយ 'ព្រះ" on their side they were entitled to exploit the peasants. The poor peasants themselves were screwed. They had to work like oxen all week long, so that every Sunday in church they would receive a little bit of 'god’, just enough to carry on another week.
ជំនួស god with money and the គំនិត remains the same. Both god and money are fictional concepts មានគោលបំណង ធានាអ៊ឹង social cohesion. But god is dead, សំណាង. And money will die as well, មួយថ្ងៃ. We will look back at our time with amazement, and we will describe our society ជាមួយ "monetary theocracy".
Puerta del Sol has proven that money is not needed. Cash donations were not accepted. People were amazed អំពីវា. "How can this society រស់ all these weeks withចេញ money?" visitors would ask.
ចម្លើយគឺសាមញ្ញ។
សុច្ឆន្ទៈ។
សុច្ឆន្ទៈគឺ តម្លៃ infinitely more than all the billions of euros used by the bigwigs to buy countries like Greece. Goodwill is the only thing ជាមួយណា we, as humans, អាចធ្វើបាន save ourselves and each other.
គ្រប់យ៉ាងគឺល្អប្រសើ,
Oscar
