Is the End of the Monetary System Near?

"The End of the Monetary System is Near"

Have you noticed that when you watch a movie set in the future, you always see one of two scenarios?:

1. One scenario is set in a primitive society where there is extreme human suffering.
2. The other scenario is set in a technology advanced society where machines benefit humanity.

We are standing on a ridge where one of these two reality's are to become our existence.

"You will someday be able to mark August 1st, 2011 as a major shift in the worldwide labor force where the balance between man and machine collide. One of the most prominent electronics manufacturers in China, Foxconn, has announced that they would be increasing their robotic labor force to 1 million. Foxconn is famous for manufacturing Apple’s iPhone and iPad line of products. In just three years the entire manufacturing labor force in China will be able to be replaced with the total of 1,000,000 machines doing human assembly line tasks.

Today will be the shot that every manufacturing worker heard around the world. Human manual labor tasks are now a setting sun on the horizon as the future rises with speed that was predicted to happen much later.

There won’t be health care to pay, there won’t be 401k’s to contribute to, no overtime, no workers compensation, no unemployment to pay, no vacations to deal with and no sick days.Robots will work every single hour of the day, 24 hours a day, no complaints and for years on end." (read article...)

“When the robots start arriving in massive numbers to take half the jobs in America, the effects will be profound. At this moment in history, we are standing right on the edge of the transformation to a robotic nation.” ~Marshall Brain

The problem is that these systems will also eliminate jobs in massive numbers. In fact, we are about to see a seismic shift in the workforce around the world. As a society, we have no way to understand or handle the level of unemployment that we will see in our collective economy. Technology will eventually do away with jobs that enable people to buy the goods turned out.

As unemployment rises; people will turn to their governments but there will be no answers. Unfortunately, it may take an economic breakdown and people becoming disillusioned with their leaders before they will seek an alternative social direction and solution.

The solution is very feasible and can happen literally overnight if enough people support it. It is set-up in every detail and ready to go, right now. All that is needed is for enough people to be aware of it and want it, hence this website.
