How to Rebel

For an act of rebellion to be effective, it has to inflict damage on the intended target. Protesting in the streets is therefore mute and impotent. So is voting at the ballot box. None of this can in any way affect the political elite and their associated bankers and financiers. Riots and looting are equally mute, even if this is targeted towards bank subsidiaries and government workers. Such actions may inflict some superficial wounds, but nothing that cannot easily be fixed.

The recipe for success is not in any of the above actions, and that may be why mainstream media give such out-sized coverage of this. The press follows such events closely, giving everyone the impression that this is where the action is. To achieve changes in the world, we have to go out and vote at the ballot boxes, protest in the streets, even riot and vandalize. That's how we vent our discontent. That's how we force the elite to make changes for the better. But none of this matters.

To hit the political elite where it really hurts, we have to target their core activities of taxation and money printing. We must avoid taxation as much as possible, and we must avoid the currencies issued by central banks. Instead of keeping currency in savings accounts, people should keep their savings in precious metals. A true mass revolt would include massive purchases of gold and silver by ordinary people, and mass emigration from places with high taxation to places with little taxation.

It is not before a country sees a massive exodus of people and their capital that real change will happen. Until then, expect things to continue. Expect the odd "rich" guy leave in disgust. Expect to see people cheering as he leaves. But remember that the door will eventually slam shut, so it is better to quietly head for the exit while there's still time. When the big exodus eventually happens, things may become very messy.
