…it’s a matter of questioning!


This Blog will try to give you background information on our shirt designs, or as we call it:
Stories from behind the scene!

The goal here is to get you into a process of questioning things, a process where you have to get out of the current passive hypnotic “consuming“ mode of your mind. Simply by actively using the brain’s ability to make connections between the various dots of information presented herein.

These stories will not represent our opinion: they will present the facts. Please keep in mind that we try our best to present you well researched material related to all the issues of interest. Some of the stories will have the quality of a scientifically researched article, others will not. The stories are written to make you think, rather than persuade you.

The source of our information can be found under Menu “Sources” at the top or just click here. You can also take this as a recommended reading list if you like.

Do you find the truth in the mass media? We don‘t think so!
Do you find the truth in the wildest conspiracy theories? We don‘t think so either.

Enjoy reading and always remember:
It’s not a question of intelligence, it’s a matter of questioning!

A Standard

Ever thought of blaming the others for your mistakes and failures ?
Ever been angry or depressed and unsuccessfully searched for the reason?

Nobody is perfect but something like “A Standard” might be helpul…

We found one here…

To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To make all your friends see that there is something in them.
To look at the funny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear; and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this face to the world, not in loud words but in great deeds.
To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

So funktionieren Staatsanleihen

Posted: 21st Dezember 2010 by JohnQ in Economy and Banks

Kopiert aus Abgeordnetenwatch.de

Deutsche Bundeswertpapiere als Einmalemissionen werden in einem Auktions- beziehungsweise Tenderverfahren über die Mitglieder der Bietergruppe Bundesemissionen abgesetzt. Jedes Kreditinstitut kann sich um Aufnahme in die Bietergruppe bewerben. Die Bietergruppe umfasste im Jahr 2007 33 Kreditinstitute.

Das sind

Deutsche Bank,
J.P.Morgan Securities Ltd.,
Morgan Stanley&Co. International Limited,
UBS Deutschland AG,
Goldman Sachs International,
The Royal Bank of Scotland Franfurt Branch,
Societe Generale S.A. Zweigniederlassung F.a.M.,
Barclays Bank PLC,
Lehman Brothers International (Europa),
Citigroup Global Markets Limited,
BNP Paribas S.A.,

Kommentar: Eine nette Ansammlung bekannter Namen, oder? Ohne zusätzlich groß zu recherchieren, stelle ich nun die Behauptung auf, daß in unserer globalisierten Welt die selben großen Banken in allen Staaten der sogenannten “freien” westlichen Welt diese Kredite vergeben!

Die Mitglieder der Bietergruppe müssen einen Teil (0,05 Prozent) der jährlichen benötigten Mittel geben. Bei jeder Emisssion können sich diese Banken bewerben. Oft bilden mehrere eine Gemeinschaft. Die niedrigsten Zinsangebote erhalten den Zuschlag. Große Geldinstitute können leichter so große Kredite aufbringen, die der Bund benötigt. Die Banken setzen für das Geld, das sie dem Bund leihen, die Einlagen ihrer Kunden ein.

Kommentar: Das heißt, daß private Banken dem Staat Kredite durch den Erwerb von “Wertpapieren”, die eigentlich Schuldpapiere sind, gewähren. Diese werden dann über den Markt  gehandelt. Dank der wunderbaren Erfindung des “fractional reserve banking” können die Banken aus den Einlagen ihrer Kunden die 10(!!!) fache Kreditmenge vergeben. Wenn also Max Muster €1.000 Einlagen bei einer Bank hat, kann diese €10.000 an Kredit vergeben. Wie schön! Wo kommen denn bloß die €9.000 auf einmal her??? Ach ja, habs vergessen, die Banken dürfen ja Geld aus dem NICHTS erschaffen und dafür Zinsen verlangen…

Die Verschuldung der öffentlichen Haushalte wird so zu einer sicheren (Zins-)Einkommensquelle für private Anlegerinnen und Anleger. Davon profitieren insbesondere die Besitzer von großen Geldvermögen, weil für höhere Beträge höhere Zinsen gezahlt werden.

Kommentar: Somit sind meist die privaten Banken die größten Gläubiger der Staaten. Eigentlich unfassbar oder? Nun bekommt der Begriff EURO Schutzschirm eine ganz andere Bedeutung:. In Wahrheit heißt das nichts anderes als daß sämtliche Staaten der Eurozone gemeinsam haften, wenn ein Staat pleite gehen sollte. Somit wird wiederum dafür gesorgt, daß die privaten Banken ohne Risiko weiterhin Kedite vergeben, dann am Ende zahlt eh wieder der dumme Steuerzahler, der aber dafür WIEDER zu den Banken gehen muß, um diese Haftungen aufzubringen. Welch absurder Teufelskreislauf!!! Dabei könnten die Staaten ihr eigenes Geld drucken….. aber das ist eine andere Geschichte.

Here we present a shocking documentary, broadcasted on a German TV station, explaining how the food industry, especially Monsanto and their partners in government manage to get certificates through fraudulent tests and fake case studies.
But what they sell and plant in reality is extremely questionable and actually poisoning earth, animals and us humans. All 5 parts online here, language German, no subtitels.

The handling of Resources

This is another contribution by a student of Karl Franzens University Graz / Austria, Institute for Educational Science. This article by Julia Haimburger talks about how the individual person can help to reduce the ongoing massive waste of our world’s resources.

She explains in detail how we can actively contribute by becoming aware of the impact we have on the different fields of our every day life. She lists five areas: living and heating, electricity, nutrition, mobility and our consumption behaviour. In each of these areas she gives various suggestions and emphasizes the actual power we as individuals have if we would only make the right decisions. There is no real excuse, as we are all part of the current situation, we do also have the ability to change it! It only depends upon us and how we decide!

The majority of those decisions do not have a big impact upon us but the do have a great impact upon our planet, if we all act together. For instance she points to our every day problems of mobility and transportation. Why are statistically only 1,4 persons seated in a car when it can fit 5? Or start being more aware of what you wear! Start demanding organic cotton with established standards and think about where they were produced…

Well my dear readers, what do you know about MONEY???

I asked myself that same question a few years ago and found out: I knew NOTHING! What..? Come on, how could that be possible??? All our life in the western world focuses on that “thing”. Almost all our decisions are based upon it. We kill people to get it, we destroy our wonderful blue planet to increase profits of various kinds.

But what is it? Where does it come from? Who generates it? And how does the “who” gernerates it? Does anybody know?

Well then, if you do know, that’s fine, no need to watch that movie but everybody who does not know, PLEASE watch this! But listen carefully and watch it closely! This is like taking the red pill in the Matrix movie.
One thing I can assure you: THIS IS NO CONSPIRACY THEORY! If you don’t believe this, go out and do your own research, just like I did…However, isn’t it amazing how less or almost absolutely nothing is taught in schools about this “phenomenon”. You won’t see any of this in the mass media of course also. Think about who owns them and the question of why will be answered immediately. We have to keep looking in the internet and many books to find at least a few answeres.

Enjoy this movie called FIAT EMPIRE. Watch it over and over again…
There will be a lot more to come on that topic!

This documentary with RON PAUL, G. EDWARD GRIFFIN, EDWIN VIEIRA and TED BAEHR is an excellent primer for the citizen who wants to get an understanding of how money is created and why the U.S. government is in partnership with the elite Banksters.

On Sustainability

One of our goals was to present scientifically researched articles. After talking to Karl Franzens University of Graz / Austria, Institute for Educational Science we could reach students who were willing to present their projects and allow us to publish them here.

The following article was written by Miriam Sehn and talks about an idea of establishing a 3 column model that would allow us a holistic view upon the concept of sustainability. Meaning that sustainability must focus on ecological, social as well as economical aspects. We should start retreating from mass production and implement the idea of eco-efficiency. That at the same time would boost a long needed productivity in regard to resources. But the problem, she writes is that people still don’t care about tomorrow as long as they have a good living today. People also think that it would not matter much if they would change their attitude as long as “all the others” don’t. But this is a big mistake. It would make a huge difference if everybody would make her/his world a little “greener” and act more consciously…
