Four Horsemen of Central Banking

The four horsemen of the apocalypse represents the four stages of any social arrangement based on an unnatural hierarchy among men. As such, they have a tendency to appear repeatedly through history. First, there is some great idea that is pushed as a solution to some social ill. This idea is then pushed by force onto others. Once established, the idea causes the sort of imbalances that can be expected when some men have an unnatural advantage over others, and finally there's collapse and death.

At present, the great overarching idea of our time is that of central banking. It started out as a proposed solution to bank failures. The idea was to establish a bank of last resort, with the power to print limitless amounts of money in order to save troubled and distressed banks, thereby saving people from the misery that comes with bank failures. The introduction of a central bank can therefore be seen as the first horseman of central banking. The idea was pushed tirelessly until it became reality.

World War I started immediately after the establishment of the central bank in the US, soon followed by World War II, and an endless array of wars thereafter, all with the purpose of expansion and domination. Central banking was to be implemented everywhere, and in strict hierarchy under the central bank in the US. This is the second horseman of central banking, namely strife and expansion.

The result of all this has been an increasing gap in wealth between the ones that have access to the central bank, and those who don't. The privilege of money printing makes some men richer than others, not due to some natural ability, but purely due to their position in society. This fosters corruption and greed, with further accumulation and centralization of wealth. Some become immensely rich at the expense of almost everybody else. This is the third horseman of central banking, and where we are currently in the great social super-cycle of our times.

What comes next is collapse. Anyone directly or indirectly dependent on central banks will suffer greatly. Social security and government hand-outs will not cover the cost of living. Only those with proper life skills and savings in gold and silver will get through this stage relatively unscathed. This is the final horseman of any social super-cycle based on a belief in unnatural hierarchies. He's the only horseman with a name, and his name is Death.
