Selected 600-word Prose after Reading Currency War (1)
I didn't realize the one-sidedness of my knowledge until I finished watching the two trilogy of Currency War. Let's just say that Currency Wars is a copy of the American documentary The money monsters in 1995, but it is certain that no one has systematically shown us the causal relationship before. More importantly, the two films "Currency War" bring people more thoughts. Everyone has his own limitations. In the process of understanding the world, all this comes from his basic understanding of the world, that is, our world outlook and values. However, due to the limitation of his own life experience, if we do not establish a comprehensive and systematic knowledge-based value system through systematic study, I am afraid that we will only live in the world we know and be blinded by the superficial phenomena of reality. My biggest personal feeling after reading these two books is that my personal knowledge is limited, poor and misunderstood.
Who is the main driving force of history, the masses who are relatively ignorant and lack creativity, or the elites who play a leading role in the development and progress of human civilization? As far as I know the history of the world, or the history of our country, there is no doubt that the masses have promoted the progress of history, but after reading these two books, I began to doubt whether this is true. Personally, I think that a few elites are undoubtedly promoting the development of the world, because there is a greater force behind these elites leading the progress of the world, that is, interests, which are expressed through money. I think people are linked by interests, and society and the country are the combination of these interests. As long as people have established this society and country, they can manipulate or even change the world, which is driven by unimaginable money. The two books Currency War show us the historical development of the West. The article holds that the basic motive force of historical development is the interest game between people, and the highest expression of interest is money, especially in the historical process of the rise of western capitalism since the industrial revolution. The word "money" represents the main contradiction in the history of the west for nearly 200 years.
Some people may think that the two novels are similar in nature, but it doesn't matter. What is important is that they bring us a new thinking, a thinking about the world and the relationship between money and the world. The development of the world is very complicated, and our cognition is very one-sided. How should we adapt to the development of this world and society? Otherwise, if the "shearing" action really happens to us one day, maybe we really can't do anything.
Selected 800-word Prose after Reading Currency War (2)
Recently, I read the once-popular financial book Currency War, and combined with the current international financial situation, I gained a lot. Let's first express some basic knowledge of this book.
Let's start with the Rothschild family! This is the largest financial empire in human history, and it is invincible in the cruel whirlpool of finance, politics and war in the world for more than 200 years. The book Currency War makes a conservative estimate of its wealth, 50 trillion dollars, dear! What a number is this! In the previous article, I applauded China's 4 trillion RMB, which is only nearly 1% of Rothschild family fortune's. However, such a large family is rarely known (except for insiders in the financial industry). Why is this?
Next, let's talk about who owns the Federal Reserve. I can only quote the conclusions in the book here, so I won't explain them in detail here. The Federal Reserve is actually a replica of the Bank of England, but the image of bankers is too bad in the eyes of the American people. It has all the functions of a central bank to hide its eyes and ears, but it has no government shares and has become a completely private central bank. Its behind-the-scenes shareholders are the so-called Wall Street giants.
Dollars are issued by the Federal Reserve. I wonder if this can explain the huge wealth mentioned just now and why most people only know Gates and Buffett. They do not want people to know the truth and continue to monopolize wealth. For every dollar of currency issued, the US government owes the Federal Reserve a dollar of debt, so they use all means to control politics, create wars and even induce inflation, and then further create wealth and control wealth through deflation.
The above are basically financial stories revealed or disclosed in the book Currency War. Of course, I can only make a brief introduction based on my understanding here. As for the gold standard and Bretton Woods system, I won't introduce them here. If readers are interested, please read the book.
With this basic understanding, I asked myself questions.
This financial crisis is very different from the financial crisis in Southeast Asia ten years ago. This time, something went wrong with the locomotive of the world economy. The loss of subprime loans may not lead to the current financial crisis, but why did it suddenly deepen and spread rapidly around the world? Why didn't the U.S. government save Lehman Brothers at a critical time, and put off the tens of billions of dollars to the present, which can't be solved by the U.S. government alone, not to mention the fact that countries around the world have been affected by it for more than one trillion dollars?
Selected essays on currency war (1000 words).
With the rise of domestic housing prices, we are also moving towards inflation. What dominates this process? The Currency War I read two days ago has given me a clear answer, that is, the excessive issuance of RMB. Why is the RMB over-issued? The reason is very simple, that is, ordinary people will spend their money on buying a house in the next 10 or even 20 years. For the immediate vested interests, banks will constantly transfer hundreds of thousands or even millions of banknotes to real estate developers, governments and first-hand landlords in the name of individuals buying houses, and these vested interests will be desperate to scatter these banknotes to the society in order to achieve higher returns tomorrow. The temporary prosperity led to a sharp increase in the amount of RMB in China. Just look at the material world around us and you will know that it is still that house or that catty of pork. Things that used to cost 1 copper coins now need a gold coin to buy. This is inflation.
The book reveals the root causes of inflation: first, mortgage loans issued in the form of debt rather than in kind give some institutions the opportunity to do some irresponsible and indiscriminate monetary behavior; Second, part of the bank's reserve mechanism. Because the dollar is the advantage of the world currency, the Fed is suspected of issuing money indiscriminately. In the past, the United States used treasury bonds to issue dollars, which led to its own inflation. Now many countries have US Treasury bonds, which is equivalent to the US transferring inflation to other countries through treasury bonds. China is also a country with a large amount of US Treasury bonds. Therefore, China's inflation is also closely related to its trade surplus with the United States (the increase in holding US Treasury bonds).
Inflation will lead to two contradictory phenomena: the increase in the value of assets (such as houses) and the decrease in the value of other commodities (due to the increase in productivity). The increase in asset value just reflects people's insecurity about owning wealth.
In order to control inflation, the government can only find ways to keep the money in the hands of ordinary people in place. What shall we do? The answer is simple. Let these currencies nest in the stock market. As long as they don't leave the stock market, these surplus currencies can't raise the price of commodity currencies at will. So, at the beginning of this year, we saw the stock market rise as scheduled, and saw the scene of state-owned assets entering the rescue market after the withdrawal of foreign capital as scheduled. But how long can state-owned assets last? As an ordinary person, how to get through this difficulty?
The first thing is to do everything possible to keep the value of your currency. For example, exchange money for real estate or gold bars. Of course, if you buy a house in debt, you have to bear certain risks, because in the process of inflation, banks will soon raise the loan interest rate by a large proportion. Maybe you have to pay 5K today, and when you wake up the next day, you have to pay 1W every month.
Secondly, it is time for mankind to re-recognize money. People can't be slaves to money. Man should be the master of money, and money should serve people, not the incarnation of the devil. Mankind needs brand-new system, brand-new politics and brand-new culture. Turn money into a bird in a cage and serve mankind. People and money, people and power, power and money live in harmony, people-oriented society. A society that values righteousness over profit, justice and affection.
Facing the current economic situation, how do modern people survive in the ever-changing monetary policy and industrial environment? It is a question worthy of people's thinking.

Selected 2000-word Prose after Reading Currency War (V)
On the recommendation of the Youth League Committee of our bureau, I read the book Currency War. This book has recently attracted the attention of readers and financial media. It is a popular financial reading that reveals the flow of world wealth and financial fraud from the perspective of currency game. Based on the modern western history and the financial development history of the Bank of England for 300 years, it reveals a lot of unknown historical truths and reproduces the ups and downs of international financial groups and their spokespersons in the world financial history. By analyzing how elite clubs ruling the world control the flow and distribution of world wealth by inciting political events and even wars, this paper expounds the necessity of China's defense of national financial security and stability under the all-round opening to the outside world, which has important reference significance for how to ensure the smooth operation of China's economic aircraft carrier at the present stage of the new century. This book is very readable, especially helpful for us to understand financial knowledge. After reading it, it was shocking and inspiring.
Who is the real richest man in the world? Who owns the Federal Reserve? Who is "demonizing" gold?
Why don't you know that the Federal Reserve is a private central bank? Why did Wall Street Venture Capital choose Hitler as the "investment" object? Why is the assassination rate of the president of the United States higher than the casualty rate of the frontline troops landing in Normandy?
This is a summary of the article at the beginning of the recent best-selling book Currency War. Of course, many things are beyond my expectation. What worries me most is whether China will fall into the trap of international financiers and become the "orange revolution" of Eastern Europe and Central Asian countries such as the Soviet Union and the former Soviet Union.
First of all, I want to ask my friends a few questions: 1. Do you know who is the richest family in the world? If so, do you know how much wealth he has? Do you know whether the Federal Reserve is state-owned or private? If so, do you know who is the largest shareholder? 3. Do you know in which country Soros Quantum Fund, which shocked the Southeast Asian economic crisis 1997, was registered? Who is the biggest supporter behind him or behind the scenes?
First of all, the first question, the richest man in the world, Bill Gates of Microsoft, the Wal-Mart family of retail giants, or the world arms dealer hidden from people's vision, is actually not. It seems strange that the richest family is the Rothschild family of bankers and financiers? Yes, I didn't know until I saw Currency War. It is conservatively estimated that its family fortune exceeds $50 trillion. Note: it is 50, and the unit is trillions! And it is dollars! For example, someone has calculated, Bill? Gates' wealth is about $56 billion! You can buy a 3 1.57 space shuttle, or a 344 Boeing 747, a 268 Titanic, and a156,000 Rolls-Royce Bentley continental luxury car. The wealth of the Rothschild family is 1000 times that of Gates! According to China's economic growth rate this year, it is about 8%, and China's GDP is about 20 trillion RMB, or about 3 trillion US dollars, which is nearly 20 times of China's annual GDP. This is not as rich as an enemy, and it can be said that it is the richest in the world! Of course, with the cunning and wisdom of financiers, these figures will not be made public. We can only imagine!
There is a fable about the future of China in the book: Mahathir, a resident, found Greenspan, a community policeman, and reported that things were stolen from his home. The thief may be Soros, a recidivist. Alan greenspan, a movie policeman, said with a smile, "You can't blame the thief. You should find the reason from yourself. Who let the lock of your house be broken? " Resident Mahathir said discontentedly, "Why don't thieves steal China and India?" Film policeman Greenspan sighed and said, "The walls in China and India are so high that it is inconvenient for Soros to climb in and out. If he falls and dies again, isn't it still my business? " The thief Soros sneered after listening: "Isn't it a problem to dig a few holes in their courtyard wall?" Film policeman Greenspan quickly looked around and whispered, "Paulson has been sent to China. I heard that several big holes can be dug by the end of 2008. " The thief Soros was overjoyed, took out his mobile phone and began to send text messages to his companions. "People are stupid and have a lot of money. Go to China quickly."
While fully opening up the financial sector, China should recognize the advantages and disadvantages of the western financial system, adopt an open mind and an attitude of sublation, and have the courage and boldness to innovate in an all-round way. A rising power in history will surely make pioneering contributions to the development of human society. China is at this special "strategic turning point". China's status as the world reserve currency for economic development is the highest level of currency issued by all sovereign countries, which represents unparalleled authority and enjoys the trust of the whole world. People often wonder why China lacks pricing power in the international market. Wal-Mart can squeeze the profit margin of China products to heartbreaking levels. Economists explain that because it is the largest consumer and represents the largest consumer market in the United States, consumers have pricing power. It has also been explained that Wal-Mart controls the sales channels in the American market, and the channel right determines the pricing power. What about iron ore? What about oil? What about the medicine? What about the passenger plane? What about Windows software? China is almost one of the largest markets in the world, and it also completely controls the sales channels in China market. As the biggest consumer, how can others say that they will go up if they go up? How much should China honestly pay for this?
In 2007, the consumer price index in China reached the highest level in the last decade. There is a popular saying: You can't outrun Liu Xiang in 2007, but you must outrun CPI! Therefore, in 2007, the China stock market continued to be hot, and the speed and quantity of new share issuance reached its peak within one year. Don't you see how similar China's stock market is to Japanese stock market for more than ten years? How to control the madness of the real estate market through state regulation? The central bank has raised interest rates several times in a year, but it still can't restrain the continuous growth of loans, which is strikingly similar to the situation in Japan for more than ten years. Let's see how the Empire State Building in Japan can't collapse!
From 1985 to 1990, Japan's domestic economy and export trade were unprecedentedly prosperous, the stock market and real estate soared year after year, and a large number of overseas assets were acquired. The self-confidence of the Japanese people has reached an unprecedented level, and it seems that it is only ten years away from surpassing the United States. From the signing of the Plaza Agreement on 1985, the exchange rate of 1 US dollar to 250 yen, in three months, the depreciation of the US dollar was as high as 20%, from 1987 to 1 20 yen, and the yen doubled in just three years. American financial tycoons have long understood that forcing the yen to appreciate sharply in a short period of time is similar to forcing Japan to swallow a large dose of hormones, and the consequence is bound to be a serious disorder of the "endocrine system" of the Japanese economy. 1990 65438+ 10/2. The United States launched a "long-distance non-contact" strategic attack on the Tokyo stock market in Japan by using the Nikkei put warrants, a new financial "nuclear weapon". The heart disease and coronary heart disease in Japan's financial system could not stand such strong stimulation, and finally suffered a stroke, which led to Japan's economic hemiplegia 17 years.
At present, in China, the price index remains high, the real estate market is booming, and the huge energy consumption will make the 9.6 million square kilometers of land in China unbearable ... During the period of gradual opening-up to full opening-up of China's financial industry, foreign financial institutions, including banks, funds, securities, futures and other financial derivatives, will gradually penetrate into every corner of China's economy and everyone's life. These foreign financial institutions will make use of their huge capital and experience to make China's economy hotter and hotter, and the continuous appreciation of RMB will further increase the scope and speed. International hot money will continue to flow into China, and China's economy will prosper, which is also in line with the dream of "the rise of China", but all this is likely to turn from inflation to deflation. At that time, enterprises and individuals seemed to have a flat tire in a high-speed car. However, due to the inexperience and careful planning of foreign financial predators, China will slam on the brakes, and a big truck full of China people's dreams will collapse, so there is no possibility of "soft landing" and slow stop. At this time, foreign banks will come to China with their hot money. At this time, our excellent enterprises and assets will be sold to them at the usual price of one tenth. From now on, China's economy will be completely controlled by foreign capital, as the article said at the end: as long as I can control a country's currency. Then I'll add another sentence for him: as long as I can control a country's financial industry, I don't care which country it is.
Currency War combs the history of the formation and development of the world financial oligarchy from a historical perspective, traces the role of the world financial oligarchy in major economic, political and social movements and its damage to the social economy, proves the profit-seeking nature of financial capital, and analyzes the ways in which financial capital uses the right to issue money to create inflation and deprive ordinary people of wealth. It is shocking and has a deep understanding of the history of world financial development. China is now in a period of frequent contradictions in social development and upgrading. If there is financial fluctuation, the consequences are unimaginable. This requires people to reflect and find out relevant countermeasures, hoping that their worries will become "alarmist".
