Government is the collective manifestation of our individual fears. Government is a belief system that is dependent upon fear. Fear of people and cultures that we have never visited. Fear of taking responsibility for our own actions.
In order for government to grow, the level of fear in the society that it controls must also grow. Government has incentive to promote fear (either real or conjured) in order to justify its own existence. This is why the nightly news is so bleak and difficult to stomach.
Bill Hicks had it right when he told us that life is a simple choice between fear and love. Remember, its just a ride.

A Ponzi Crash Course
We will let the videos do all of the explaining. The key thing to note about a ponzi is that money comes in the front door under the guise that it will be invested some place, but in reality the money goes out the back door to satisfy the requirements of a person who is leaving the ponzi. Ponzi schemes always end suddenly without warning, with the end being triggered by a flood of sellers that outweighs the number of incoming buyers. The ponzi ends when there are no fools left to fool.
