Scientists discover tipping point for the spread of ideas
Scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have found that when just 10 percent of the population holds an unshakable belief, their belief will always be adopted by the majority of the society. The scientists, who are members of the Social Cognitive Networks Academic Research Center (SCNARC) at Rensselaer, used computational and analytical methods to discover the tipping point where a minority belief becomes the majority opinion. The finding has implications for the study and influence of societal interactions ranging from the spread of innovations to the movement of political ideals.

What this means is we only need 10% of the population to understand how these few individuals are robbing us and enslaving us to transform the narrative society believes in, to stop them.

FOUR HORSEMEN describes the debacle the financial Cabal has caught the whole world into, while offering solutions and optimism for the transition to a new paradigm. It suggests a return to doing "business as usual" is unlikely because the faults are systemic demanding a new approach to build a complete new paradigm with more emphasis on human value, not so much as the current material accumulation aims of the system we have now.
The Perpetual Growth policy inherent in today's economic system is unsustainable.
Some of the scholars offer the old formula to back money with gold or silver, which I find useless with its own problems. What we need is a formula to limit the amount of currency according to the size of the economy in order to avoid inflation and deflation, or as suggested by Thomas Greco and others, to dump the idea of Money altogether and trade using Credit Exchange Clearance systems where the value exists only in the actual products and services we consume, not in the "money" as unfortunately too many confused people do today.
John Perkins who wrote "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man" offers insights as to how the US has achieved the most powerful empire in history based in financial speculation, more than military conquest.
One other important issue I like to express the film didn't address, is the fact real capital can only be produced from the manufacture and service of consumers goods. Any "profits" that are the result of financial speculation, as it's dealing with any financial activity not manufacturing actual products, is in fact a drag in the Real Economy and false.
Therefore the financialization of the US economy means that capital is being channeled towards quick, easy profits from financial speculation, and less from investing, producing, developing and manufacturing consumer goods, compounding the lack of investment in the infrastructure the economy needs to function efficiently. This is why the Real Economy is lagging, together with job creation. Financialization is the reason why GE had to be bailed out as other banks, because they realized the amount of profits banks were accumulating, and decided to also start speculating as well getting into the same trouble.

The following video shows the film director and others, debating the issues of the film above and researching the idea of "The American Dream" and what it means for an individual.
