Zeitgeist: Addendum




The second Zeitgeist movie... I predict this one isn't going to be as popular as the first. Why? Because I think that this film focuses too much on the socialistic futurists contained in this film, as opposed to explaining (more than one) solution to being controlled by the private banking elite. I don't think that making (money, or currency) disappear completely is a feasible plan. Nor do I think that machines (or technology) is the save all which will make this world into a modernized utopia. Maybe I'm just a pessimist, or maybe I like to base my thoughts in reality. Watch the film and come up with your own opinion, but mine is that this is an overly optimistic notion which would inevitably have the same problems as our current system. No currency? For whom?


Well, probably us - the worker-bee peasant class. The rich will remain rich, as they would hold tightly onto their assets and material wealth. For one to say that (gold) for example would cease to have value in this world would be absurd for example. It's been used as a form of currency on this planet for thousands of years.
