About this event
Our Money System - What's Wrong with it and How to Fix it
A critical look at money & credit, their political and economic implications, and innovations that are making conventional money obsolete.
The May 21 - Session 1 provided an overview of the present system of money and banking, how it has evolved, how and why it is problematic, and where it is trending. It described the global interest-based debt-money system, how it causes the growth imperative and the politicization of finance and exchange, and the political and economic consequences of its continuation. It outlined the fundamental concepts of exchange and finance and the principles upon which sound and sustainable systems are being developed. Here are some recommended resources that reinforce the material that was presented in the May 21 webinar.

June 4 - Session 2 will build upon the previous session. It will go deeper into the myths, mysteries and misconceptions about money and the present money system. It will be somewhat more interactive and will provide ample opportunity for discussion of whatever questions have been evoked by the previous session and the assignments. These might include topics like inflation, depressions, asset bubbles and busts, the savings and investment functions, and government responses to shocks like the 2008 financial crisis and the more recent pandemic. This will lead into a discussion about possible solutions to the problems that the present system causes, and the role of local currencies and other alternatives for the exchange of value.
June 18 - Session 3 will concentrate upon past, present, and future exchange and payment alternatives, like Depression-era scrip, local and private currencies, commercial trade exchanges and LETS systems that apply the “credit clearing” process, and the more recent emergence of crypto-currencies and blockchain ledgers and their potential role. It will include discussion of how these have evolved, their advantages, limitations and future potential and what needs to be done to take them to scale.
