Blogging The New Free Press, 21st Century Pamphleteers.

Blogging as a free press has a wonderful double meaning . One it doesn’t cost anything other than the infrastructure of a computer and web connection ( we should none of us take that for granted ) ; Two the full connotations of free speech and freedom of choice.

By reading Blogs and participating in comments discussions there is almost an 18th century Cafe society of Artists, Artisans, Activists all actors in a spreading of views regarding the Human condition.  This exchange of ideas and reading can inform us and help us to grow awareness across the spectrum of so many subjects.

I read a number of blogs and often visit the blogs of participants in discussions in the comments sections . I highly recommend in Wikipedia always taking time to read the discussion pages which show where editing is negotiated for the main article , the little icons of BIAS or Controversy are usually clues to a wonderful discussion in the most part regarding unsettled knowledge.

Always there are Pedants for Grammar, Punctuation or the Orthodox view seeking Dead Tree Author confirmation of the views expressed. But what is a Publishers editor and commissioning director other than an establishment censor by another name, just enough to keep the best stuff under wraps and then theres the constant battle of Gagging orders, an example where one can ruin it for all , I.E the News of The World or other main stream practices gagging what should really be said

Anyway as a reader of the Human Condition as represented in cyberspace one Blog that I always look forward to is Guido’s Temple of the Absurd. I have read widely on the subject on which Guido is a master
Debt Based Fiat Money. Take a Look and decide for yourself we should listen to the modern day Thomas Paines they are the 21st Century Pamphleteers and as Blake said of Thomas Paine, The Author of Common  Sense.

Blake believed that Paine’s “Energetic Genius” led him to perform miracles: “Is it a greater miracle to feed five thousand men with five loaves than to overthrow all the armies of Europe with a small pamphlet?”

There is more to money than just the bits of paper in your pocket. Money and the monetary system are upstream of all and any human dynamics bar none. The choice of monetary system is a choice between liberty and enslavement and indoctrination.

A bon entendeur, salut!

* If the American people (or any other people) ever allow the banks to control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation, and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property, until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power of money should be taken from banks and restored to Congress and the people to whom it belongs. I sincerely believe that the banking institutions having the issuing power of money are more dangerous to liberty than standing armies.
(Thomas Jefferson)
