Last time in this brief series on the concept of sovereignism, we explored in depth how every political system thus far devised involves individuals giving up some of their sovereignty to a collective government in the hopes of getting increased security in return. While that works at least for a while, eventually the government tends to grow and take more and more control for itself until some sort of despotism takes hold. That despotism can take many forms but the important part is that it means individuals no longer have control over much of their own lives. 

That control takes a lot of energy. For a state to maintain control over a population the amount of energy that gets expended is nuts. And that isn’t to grow, to expand, or to increase prosperity, it’s just to control and keep things where they are at. That’s why the state keeps trying to control more. It and the people who run it believe that controlling more will mean there is more energy to direct towards growth. The problem is that it works in the short term. The state pulls in more and for a while can do more work with that infusion of energy. Yet, before long, that energy again gets sucked up in maintaining control. So it tries to get more energy until the people who make up the state’s population aren’t giving any more. Either because they have no more to give or because they just aren’t having it. When that point is reached, the state begins to crumble, breaking down under the strain of maintaining control.

So, what is energy? In this reading, you could say energy is control. It is used to maintain control, either by the state over people or by people over themselves. It is also power. Power over others, over things. Power to accomplish goals, whatever they might be. All that might be small thinking though. Why? Because energy is at the root of everything. The computer I’m writing this on obviously requires electricity, which most likely comes from a fossil fuel plant. Those fossil fuels were once plants and animals that pulled nutrients from the ground with the help of the sun. 

The energy from the sun is therefore at the base of everything that happens here on earth. Yet, that is not the real base, you can keep going back all the way to the big bang, which was all the energy still in the universe contained in an infinitesimal point. We get to study that energy in the Cosmic Background Radiation, microwaves that carry a record of the first moments of the universe. It’s the energy signature of the creation of the universe. Do you want to know the truth about what happened in those first moments? Study the energy. So perhaps, ultimately energy is a signpost to the truth. Not only is this true when it comes to understanding the truths of the universe, it works to a degree with people too. What to know about what a person really wants? What a person thinks is important? Look at what they do, where they spend their energy. Especially their energy when the necessities are met. What do people do with their energy after they have food and shelter? No matter what they say then, that is a big indicator of what they really find important. That’s the truth. 

Why then would we give any of that up? Why give up truth, power or control to a centralized entity that will likely use it against you? Whether it be a business or a government, chances are anything you give them can and will be used against you. That’s why people should be moving to systems like TARTLE and cryptocurrency. Take back control of your data, the record of how you spend your energy. Get away from the systems of the centralized entities that don’t have your interests at heart. Why do you think they want your data so much? It isn’t for your benefit, it’s for theirs.
