Winter Storm Walda continued to be a major problem for the Plains on Wednesday, dropping temperatures dramatically and then dumping more than a foot of snow across parts of several states.

More than two feet of snow have fallen in parts of South Dakota, and areas in Minnesota could see an additional foot of snow on Wednesday, while ice has become a problem in the southern Plains. Severe weather continues to be a concern, but the threat has shifted eastward into the South and Ohio Valley.

We wish to spend some time today discussing your money and economies.  It is rather unique to your world to do things in the manner you have chosen.  On other worlds, everyone contributes to the society, of course.  Without that there really would not be a society, would there?  However, you have chosen to make the basic necessities of life, the food, shelter, clothing, and education needed to live in your societies, those things which are essential to each and every individual, into salable goods.  There really is no compassion there, is there?

 

Then you have allowed the control of the supply of that one item, money, to be placed, or rather taken, by truly a handful of individuals.  You have literally given it away, rather than maintain it, once you had wrested it free from the grasp of a king.  And then the system they invented to take control spread like a virus.
