Given that people can see that central banks and govt’s make the rules up as they go along , isn’t there a danger that people will eventually lose all confidence in fiat currencies ?
If that happens doesn’t the currency not only devalue but become totally worthless followed soon after by the breakdown of society ?
Are things in danger of going so far that we can’t find our way back to reality ?
The whole thing feels as pointless as the playing out of a game of monopoly .
Now thanks to financialisation and rinsing and repeating the financiers have appropriated pretty much everything ( including the govt and the legal system ) , there is nothing much left for the man in the street to play for .
