No, it is what is done with the store of value... The debt and the
nature of the effort which is related to that debt and how any
resultant conflict is directed in a way is turned into business which
helps those who generally are charged with managing investments and
large scale business holdings.

I have lived abroad for a few years and seen some ugly things. In
that regard I am no different than a lot of people. Here then I will
keep it short...

I am trying to keep this very short because of my back and it is
eaarly in the AM here where I am at. I think the best way to sum it
up is from the International. What's interesting is how so on point
they made it in this movie.... so I'll just focus on what the actor
said to the lady who was inquiring of him right before he was
assassinated. Interestingly, the assassin was himself supposed to be
assassinated, by a police officer. In The International, all the
lower level players were intended to be disposable ~ there was
supposed to be some sort of sick, disposable system, which actually
was more or less true to how it usually works out....

Anyway, here is how the line was described in the movie:

" [In explaining the "true" nature of banking in the world]
The IBBC is a bank. Their objective isn't to control the conflict,
it's to control the debt that the conflict produces.

You see, the real value of a conflict, the true value, is in the
debt that it creates. You control the debt, you control everything.
You find this upsetting, yes? But this is the very essence of the
banking industry, to make us all, whether we be nations or
individuals, slaves to debt.
~ Umberto Calvini"

It struck me after watching that film some while back, that either a
long-term mercenary or a very experienced politician (and perhaps a
banker) may have been given a few moments with the pen for those
lines. But who can say such things, really?

On the other hand, this line, as it was written, from the perspective
of the character Umberto Calvini, was quite true in 2009 when The
International was made. Today, with hundreds of d-cent currency-ish
systems in use around the world today, and with 2015 marking the
inflection point of the release (and further development of) anonymity
tech the likes of which we have not yet seen, it is safe to say that
the notion of "slaves to debt" as a line in a film must be
reinterpreted. Indeed, what that means, and what is a store of value,
and whether we wish to be a slave to it at all, need not be
ceaselessly in someone else's hands, but should be much more in our
own and further, we should be closer to being each able to enabling
others to snap their own shackles. The notion of slavery need not
merely be tied to "isms," but we may as one example conclude that the
old and traditional notion of slavery is the result of a lack of
compassion, and sharing. and that it is more pervasive than we'd like
to admit ~ while at the same time examining that the new and multiple
meanings of slavery also imply that we have the ability to break them all.

Today, the debt is in our minds.
