Your answer does not conform to the common model. Let's make it harder to read instead of having a frank discussion.

My problem with it is not the content, it's the totalizing, evangelical approach. In tone it's about a half-step from the goggle-eyed people who want to talk about "international bankers" and how they control everything. I have never had a good conversation with anybody who starts out like that, because they are in the grip of a strongly self-reinforcing worldview.

People often say "follow the money, look at the incentives..." Yet those same people keep neglecting the system which produces the mother of all incentives. It's easy to see how heavily money-oriented the average person is nowadays. IMO, the way the economy works is that we're just like ants following a trail of breadcrumbs and the reserve banks decide which direction to toss all the new breadcrumbs...
