It is overt that we have been living for almost a century within a financial structure that rests on nothing and which in turn supports and feeds an economic system that has long been highly unsustainable. Fiat money - with no underlying - is an absurdity, a lie that we have decided to make into truth, but which is bound to collapse in the long run. The central banks' maneuvers on interest rates have now become a clumsy way of covering up this mise-en-scene, but by now the blanket is getting shorter and shorter. To make matters worse, the world population is growing rapidly: eight billion people at present. All in a capitalist-consumerist system that induces us to buy, consume rapidly and then repeat a cycle that aims at the continuous growth of nations' turnover and GDP...but to get where? It is clear that the endpoint can only be the implosion of the system itself.
