The End of Money & the Future of Civilization by Thomas Greco, Jr.

I haven't read this book. But it looks interesting. I learned about it by reading the description of the June 29, 2009 interview on RBN's The Global Research News Hour.

Quote:

My choice of title for this book is intentionally provocative, but not at all based on wishful thinking. It expresses what is actually happening NOW. The recent emergence of commercial “barter” exchanges, mutual credit clearing associations, private voucher systems and community currencies represent the early stages of a process of power devolution that will inevitably lead to the end of POLITICAL money.

But the end of money refers NOT ONLY to the end of political money, but also to the evolutionary process by which the essential nature of money has changed over the past two or three centuries—from commodity money, to symbolic (redeemable paper) money, to credit money. Of course, the reciprocal exchange process that money is intended to facilitate will continue, but in a different way from before, a way that does not require the use of conventional money or banks.

The ultimate stage in the evolution of money and the exchange process that is now emerging is the direct credit clearing amongst buyers and sellers, i.e., the offset of their purchases against their sales. The widespread application of this process does indeed mean, in a very real sense, the end of money

The important thing now is to get large numbers of people to read the book. I truly believe that it provides information that is essential for people to have as we negotiate what futurist Robert Theobald called, “the rapids of change.” You can help by placing orders through conventional channels, especially your local independent bookstore. If they get enough orders, they will stock it and hopefully display it. It is also important for readers to rate the book and post their reviews on Amazon.com.

This is sooooo important. This is what we're up against, right now.

We need a critical mass of individuals who will refuse to cooperate. We need a (peaceful) revolution.

WWF=World Wildlife Fund, correct?

I believe Alan Watt has stated that this is a front group/organization.

I was thinking 'World Wrestling Federation' (now World Wrestling Entertainment), but Alan Watt is probably right. Maybe the World Wildlife Fund should change their name to 'World Wildlife Entertainment' if they are one of the groups that keep showing pictures of polar bears drowning.

May you post the url of the interview? I can't seem to find it.

I can see so clearly how money is what keeps humanity from being free and living with absolute abundance. I am happy to see this book.
