Summary: Today we are going to talk about one of the primary support planks that need to be in place for real modern survival living. It won’t be about storing food, the right guns, getting defense training or securing your property. All of those are incredibly important and there is a ton more that is important as well. That said, what is the primary leverage we use to get these things and many others done? The answer is money. Money is a symbol for energy, that is what it really represents, whether human labor, natural energetic systems or man made automation, it is all about energy. In a sense real monetary economics is “thermo-economics”. Simply put you do work, you get paid in “money” for that work. Your energy was used to charge an economic battery, now you can store that energy, apply it so that you get more energy back (investing) or spend it (convert it into something you want or need). This is a simplified view but sometimes a simplified view is the most practical for how it effects our lives. With this view of economics we begin to understand the purpose money serves for the systems of control and then using economic martial arts we can redirect that to our own purposes. The truth is money is both the single biggest liberating force ever created, it is also the single most powerful tool of enslavement at the same time.
