One Day...

Let us all hope that one day we will wake up and everything will be different like the birth of something new. There is coming a time when the US Dollar will collapse. We will all be effected by this because so much of the world's way of buying and selling is connected with this currency. This unravelling is starting to happen even now, but when the almighty Dollar really does go down the tube, we will have a rare window of opportunity to help change our society.

We will need to resist the demands of our pervading "consumer culture" of which we are all part of, if we are reading this blog. If we are able to be unselfish and compassionate, we will truly help to make a better world. Here are some of the changes that have to happen in a good and healthy world:

• Respect for nature (all life in general)


• Free speech for nutritional supplement manufacturers (the present regulation makes their product promotional statements toothless)


• End all noted unhealthy additives in food (these things are known to contribute to degenerative diseases)


• Banning of all advertising of processed and fast foods (yes, even pizzas)


• Banning of all advertising of pharmaceuticals (including all the remaining places where cigarette advertising happens)


• Banning of all government pharmaceutical subsidies (our governments are being fleeced by the pharmaceutical companies with their over-inflated prices for drugs)


• Banning of all genetically engineered crops (we must save our planet and reduce the amount of poison allowed to be used on some of these crops)


• Banning of all genetic manipulation of life (including stem cell "research" with the fertilised ovum


• Stopping copyright protection on ideas and creations that are now out of copyright but have had a modification of some sort to keep it in copyright (slightly altered sheet music of past great composers is an example)


• Deny corporations the legal status of the individual (this may stop their investment and control of mass media for their own ends)


• Stop allowing corporations donating to political parties


• Stop allowing corporations to lobby governments (in case we missed the previous point)


• Stop allowing corporation executives legal protection behind the company facade while their actions destroy the lives of countless numbers of people the world over (especially the third world)
  
• End patent protection for genes, seeds and medicines, declaring all such patents public property (the useless and dangerous products should then disappear if there is no profit to be made)

The list could go on. What we are up against is greed in the individual human being and this is endemic is our society. To earn the right to speak out we have to master those tendencies in ourselves first by letting go of our fears of being "labelled" and sent to the fringe to join the society "dropouts". Yet we find God in those fringe places because that is where truth and love may be found. The chance is before us to make a difference. Shall we try?
