The economy is a general term describing various exchanges of money, goods, and services between individuals, groups, and nations. The Deep State employ elaborate methods to manipulate the economy for the purpose of controlling human life, specifically by making it difficult to access goods and services that improve quality of life. The preceding information reveals news or research related to the economy at some level. This information is important to understand because it is one facet of the global control system. Truly free people have the ability to exchange their creative works (goods and services), which allows them to gain increased abundance over time due to innovation, technological advancement, and frugality. Thus, but understanding the economy and how money works, which is something most people do not understand, social systems of freedom can be developed. An individual’s freedom is only as effective as the environment within which they express their rights. As such, the individual is encouraged to gain deep knowledge of the law, and the expression of rights, which in a grand sense, is the economy at all levels—the exchange of ideas, energy, and resources. Once a group of individuals learns how to unite to protect their rights and resources (e.g. a nation or country) they can defend themselves from Deep State manipulation if they can guard against divide and conquer tactics and forme a truly lawful body politic.
