Moneyless Business: Barter Transactions Increase Worldwide (Valentin Katasonov, Strategic Culture Foundation)

As part of human history, money will not last forever. True, with global supply on the rise, money is increasingly in demand today. The reason is simple: instead of real economy the printing press production goes to financial markets, where risky financial transactions are widely practiced. Even if one has the money in a bank, it’s becoming hard to use it as it turns into an instrument of speculation to benefit the owners of printing presses.

This is no longer seen as shocking. The central banks in developed countries began backing into the negative zone for passive operations several years ago.
