ALLIANCE FO§ DEMOCRACY

Fit for a Museum

As we reported in “Bundesbank Closes Money Museum”, as the crash looms, the money in circulation today is fit only for a museum. Because it has no value anymore. And our monetary policy is as worn out as the currency. Behind this are the politicians with their flawed partisan political decisions. They also belong in a museum. Because the world must learn from them and because they must serve as a warning to future generations.
Chancellors Schmidt and Kohl should be prominently displayed in the museum. Each of them was either responsible for or allowed public debt to set new records during their respective terms. Schmidt even came to conclude that “democracy encourages debt.”
Schmidt had already favoured a common currency in Europe, even though this was not mathematically feasible. Kohl, in any case, was fully addicted to the idea of a united Europe, and unearthed the euro with his colleagues on the European trading floor, thus burying Europe. A Europe that had long ago concluded all of the agreements to establish an economic alliance. What must absolutely be on exhibit is the futility of these actions, and the advantages that each European country saw in the euro, i.e. currency reform that could be kept secret or hushed up. The result of these political lies and misdeeds is that the European people are still being deceived to this day and have been stripped of an economic future. Politicians have taken away their right to participate in important political decisions and have ensured that their responsibility for the machinations used to rescue the currency would grow at the same rate that the latter is devalued. This has eliminated democracy altogether. All democratic values have been rendered worthless.
The total loss in value of our emerging European euro community, which is felt in every sector and is due to its foundation of lies and misconduct, belongs in the museum along with the names of several German chancellors. Schröder, because he did not put an end to the debacle around the euro, and Merkel because she fought even more enthusiastically than Kohl for the euro, even though she must have known that the cause had long been lost. And neither was able to do anything about the public debt; Merkel is responsible for the fact that the debt run up during her term exceeded the level reached by her predecessors.
It is therefore no wonder that Kohl chose a location close to the museum district for the new Chancellery in Berlin. Reforms were impossible for him and all of his successors. So, the Chancellery became a museum which, like the Money Museum, shows how politics works, and the Money Museum also shows how money is king; that politicians serve this king, banks profit from it and the people pay for it. This trend must be stopped once and for all and placed on exhibit as an historic blunder. And then – then a direct democracy must be created, because that is what will restrict the power of money and ensure responsibility in politics, the economy, and all institutions that are close to government, so they are managed efficiently.
