An individual, company, government or planet that lives beyond its means will sooner or later get into very real serious trouble. We, on planet Earth, are in this situation. Nobody has any real idea of the extent of the problem, because nobody knows who owes what to whom, it is a secret. We do not have a credit problem; we have a living beyond our means problem.
Chief Executive Officers and politicians are elected, and the more they borrow, the more they can spend, and the better they appear, and so the more likely they are to be re-elected, but often appearances are deceptive. Although it is irresponsible, they are encouraged by irresponsible banks to do so, as they earn billions upon billions in the process. This irresponsibility has little or nothing to do with the ordinary people of the world, except that we are being told that we have to pay for their irresponsibility.
The problem we are faced with is not a credit problem; it is a living beyond our means problem – a borrowing problem. And a problem caused by borrowing cannot be solved by borrowing; it just heaps irresponsibility upon irresponsibility.
The majority of the people on planet Earth have been living for many years on less than $2 a day, because the rich and powerful people of the world have a system to serve their own greed, and not the Common Good. It is grossly unjust as it institutionalises an inequality of opportunity to a degree that is appalling. It has never been fair, it still isn’t, and it will never be fair, just, honest, transparent or inclusive; indeed it has never, nor will ever cause anything but hardship and hassle for us, the ordinary people of the world.
PPP suggests that you and I, and the majority, have a moral responsibility to replace this corrupt system, with one that is honest, this divisive system with one that unites, this unfair system, with one that is just, a system that causes war, with a system that causes peace. This is our responsibility, this is our planet, this is our home, in the name of common sense, let’s change it democratically for our own sake, and for the sake of our children and future generations.
