Critical Path -|- World Game R. BUCKMINSTER FULLER, Adjuvant: Kiyoshi Kuromiya, p.213-214 “In the reality of physical-resource and knowledge potential we have four billion billionairs on our planet (seven billion today), the probating and delivery of whose legacy, as amassed by the more-with-lessing contributions and loving sacrifices of all humans in all history, has been postponed by the game of making money with money by those who as yet misinformedly operate on the 1810 Malthusian assumption that “humanity is multiplying its population at a geometric rate while increasing its life-support foods, etc., only at an arithmetic rate” -- ergo, the money makers assume that there is nowhere nearly enough life support for all. Malthus said the majority of humans are designed to suffer and die far short of their potential life-span. Darwin’s “survival only of the fittest” dictum has combined with that of Malthus to persuade the “haves” to be intelligently selfish and to legally fortify their “haveness” position against the “have-nots.” With legal planning of their lawyer-advised banking leaders, the “haves” have now succeeded in cornering all the world’s monetary gold as well as the preponderance of the world’s petrolium sources -- along with their refineries and world-around petro-delivery systems together also with acquisitions of all the atomic power-generating plants, originally paid for by the U.S. taxpayers -- and thereafter in severing the monetary system from the wealth system while marking up the negotiable equity value of gold and petroleum tenfold. They also have contrived their own game of international monetary banking of international balances of trade and credit accounting, greatly aided by the priorly established existence of 150 “sovereign” nations around planet Earth.”
