Exchange

We all need things to live, and we also want things. Some of which we can provide for ourselves, whereas others we cannot. Hence, our need to engage in exchange.

These exchanges are typically done either through monetary means via commercial enterprises or through charitable means via non-profit organizations. And when neither are available, many choose to seek government assistance.

In recent years it has become abundantly clear that:

• Our monetary system is failing.
• Most non-profits are under government control.
• Government assistance is usually more harmful than good.

Therefore, in order to continue to get what we need &/or want without the unwanted control or harm of governing agencies; we must engage in alternative practices.

And given the destructive behavior of those who create & control the money supply and those who govern commerce and public entities & affairs, I believe a shift is in order.

We need to shift from operating primarily in the public & commercial realms to functioning mostly in the private peer-to-peer realm.

This means we need to:

• Find & use alternate mediums of exchange.
• Switch to alternate ways of exchange.
• Be more charitable on an individual level.
• Become more private & personal in our exchanges.

Furthermore, while most of us have become accustomed to engaging in exchanges online, it has become increasingly apparent as to how vulnerable we are in that environment and how fragile that technology is.

Therefore, we believe in addition to changing our online behavior, we must also direct more of our attention to conducting these exchanges offline and within our local area. Hence, we are doing both.
