We want our money back-Lets call out corruption


transparency is the killer application. I am tired of the small  % of gangsters on the planet stealing the people’s money. I think it is time we get our money back. This means that we stop being victims and co conspirators  by looking the other way and further more celebrating their schemes and stolen billions while we ignore this massive global corruption going on. It is easier to live in denial and go along pretending while governments and peoples lives are being destroyed by this very few. Many of these criminals hide behind socialism, Communism or crony capitalism but it really is gangsterism. I say we get our money back. Lets create a "Global Corruption Act" in which government officials and their teams of money laundering cohorts can run but they can’t hide. This means having them stripped of their assets  put them in jail and punish those who have assisted them including the banks. I propose we create a global movement called “I want my money back” These characters are already starting to feel the pressure via the Internet as  people get wider access to information. This access to the truth is starting to create a slow but drastic shift in consciousness, intolerance and anger. This is compounded by a global paradigm shift taking place on the planet away from theses dark and destructive dealings and moving  to  openness, fairness, transparency, creativity and human enhancing ventures. Individuality is transparency and personal empowerment, the collective ideology is about squashing people  and making the individual dependent , that is exactly what corruptions does to humanity. Do not put up with corruption, do not associate with it and if you see it happening bring it to the open/call it out. Lets chase it down and get our money back.

Make the planet a nourishing and loving place to live. The heart is the real source of our actions and ideas. Let's really make quality of life and human nourishment the priority.

Respect nature. We are nature; it is our duty to respect, protect and learn from nature rather than conquer her.

The Inner Journey. The real revolution is our inner growth. As long as we do not reinvent our inner landscape, our outer reality will continue to be limited, stale and violent.

Live a holistic lifestyle. The mind, the heart, the spirit and the body are one interrelated organism.

Business to transform the world. Business is a very powerful force that must be used to transform the earth. Compassion, entrepreneurship, innovation and the Spirit are the core elements of this transformation. Business based on innovative chaos, taking risk, intuition, heart, synthesis, non-linear skills, a holistic approach, conservation, quality, cooperation and partnership are the focal points of a new business paradigm.

Use technology to unite people. Let's create technologies that bring us together and help us develop lives of greater quality. The Internet is a manifestation of our desire to be connected. We aspire to connect to each other and become whole.

The Media. Media must inform, uplift, educate, inspire and unite. Not manipulate, instill fear, and keep people from developing their inner greatness.

Individual versus the collective. The individual must become responsible for his or her well-being, inner journey and self-improvement. The government cannot do it. Let's empower our selves, hearts, and thoughts.

Government small and non-intrusive. The government is simply a traffic cop. The responsible individual is the engine of growth, order and prosperity.

High self-esteem is the most effective weapon against corruption. As human beings we must understand that we are all capable of creating the life we want. We do not have to take from others. The universe is an abundant system. Scarcity is an illusion.

We are what we eat/eating is a political act. If we eat junk, we become junk, we think junky ideas and we end up creating a world of junk. Let's eat quality food and become quality people.

Quality of life over superficial growth. Our economic growth must be based on the growth of the human spirit and the improvement of our lives. We need to change the measurement of our economic life and the meaning of the word "profits." Profits must include quality of life, personal growth and enjoyment.

Learning is a human right. Teaching people is a global duty; not having education available is a violation of human rights.

Role models are extraordinary people. We must admire real people that have created extraordinary lives, not people created by the media. Role models are essential for the development of our human potential.

Abundance and prosperity. The universe is abundant. We are abundant and limitless. We need to turn our minds and hearts toward our greatness, abundance and possibilities.

Consumption vs. quality of life. We cannot fill our emptiness by consuming. Consumption must have meaning and its consequences measured. We need nourishment, creativity, encouragement, playfulness and community - not more consumption.

Individual creativity, imagination and self-expression are sacred. Individual creativity must be respected, encouraged and protected. It is the only way out of our current broken paradigm.
