Wealth

Chris Martenson, of Peak Prosperity, indicates, as I have also said, that we cannot continually rely upon a consumer based economy that counts on everything always getting bigger--bigger populations, bigger homes, bigger GDP, bigger deficits, more speculation--it is unsustainable. It is not wealth. Wealth is a healthy, robust environment. Wealth is a well educated and healthy population. Money is an allusion. You all know that right. And the captains of the economy manipulate it at our expense.

We need an education and value based economy. Spend money on learning, until the day you die. Spend money on increasing the value of the things you surround yourselves with--your home, your land, your community, your state and your nation.
