Darwinian Devolution

[open4]

Unfortunately the parasitic interests of Goldman, Wall Street, central banking and governments, et al, in commanding the substitution of gold money by fiat currency and credit has distorted the natural progression of human development to such an extent that the usual process of Darwinian evolution has temporally reversed into a process best described as Darwinian devolution.

How did such degenerate behaviour, contrary to all aspects of positive human existence and aspiration come about?

Simply because, without a Gold standard, it could.

How can we immediately reverse this disastrous state of affairs and return the financial elites to their proper subservient role in society?

Return to a 100% non fractional Gold standard without delay.

Munger -- what was that again??

It's a weird embed. When I clicked the box, it brought up the link.

Tongue in cheek: 1978 Devo performance. Devo was a fantastic band based around the concept of human "de-evolution". Here's another good one - probably their signature song:

Sorry to break the bad news to you but, nothing is going to change.

The problems are much deeper than the fractional reserve banking and fiat currency system, they go deep into the culture of modern societies.

Not the mention the intentional information asymmetries that are espoused by the elites and the elite owned media.

A decade after scientists first cracked the human genome, researchers announced in the May 7 issue of Science that they have done the same for Neanderthals, the species of hominid that existed from roughly 400,000 to 30,000 years ago, when their closest relatives, early modern humans, may have driven them to extinction.

Led by ancient-DNA expert Svante Pääbo of Germany's Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, scientists reconstructed about 60% of the Neanderthal genome by analyzing tiny chains of ancient DNA extracted from bone fragments of three female Neanderthals excavated in the late 1970s and early '80s from a cave in Croatia. The bones are 38,000 to 44,000 years old.

The genetic information turned up some intriguing findings, indicating, for instance, that at some point after early modern humans migrated out of Africa, they mingled and mated with Neanderthals, possibly in the Middle East or North Africa as much as 80,000 years ago. If that is the case, it occurred significantly earlier than scientists who support the interbreeding hypothesis would have expected.

Comparisons with DNA from modern humans show that some Neanderthal DNA has survived to the present.

And we can guess where

They were and are still fantastic. They tour frequently.

It's the disinformation asymmetry that worries me; but perhaps that's because I sit on the other side of the teeter-totter from the elites ... I'm on the side where all the bovine excrement seems to pile up.

In other words -- you nailed it. Good post.

Re: Darwinian Devolution

The Gold standard limits the extent that the information asymmetry can be exploited by the parasite such that the productive naturally prevail.
