July 22—In her weekly column for the newspaper of Germany’s Bueso party, Neue Solidarität, Helga Zepp-LaRouche sounds the alarm over the onrushing destruction of Germany due to its adherence to the policy insanity of the trans-Atlantic financial Establishment. What she describes for Germany applies equally to the United States and, in fact, the entire so-called West.
“Deindustrialization is in full swing,” Zepp-LaRouche states, “and with it, not only our prosperity, but also all of our social system—health, education, pensions, etc.—are being demolished. We face a future with the standard of living of a failed state. We will be fully entangled in a ‘rules-based’ foreign policy designed to perpetuate hostility to Russia and ruin relations with China. In the process, all policies are being streamlined to suit the interests of the US military-industrial complex, which is ruining us economically and threatening an escalation into World War III.”
She warns that “all of this will worsen dramatically as central banks are unable to find a way out between the Scylla of inflation triggered by liquidity injection to bail out bankruptcies and energy increases, and the Charybdis of raising interest rates. The neoliberal financial system is hopelessly indebted with quadrillions of outstanding derivative contracts. Conclusion: a massive screw-up, across the board! Anyone who, in view of this overall situation, counts on the ‘self-healing powers of the market’,” Zepp-LaRouche writes, is ignorant, or evil or both.
“We need a fundamental change in the direction of policy,” she states. "To do this, we have to put behind us the entire neoliberal, green paradigm, into which we have been maneuvered step by step since the early 1970s, along with the false Malthusian dogma of the alleged ‘limits to growth’ from the Club of Rome. We must remember our identity as the people of poets, thinkers, and inventors, and our capacity to increase our efficiency in the universe through scientific discoveries of universal physical principles. Growth does not mean quantitative increase, as the Greens want us to believe, but it means the systematic qualitative advancement of mankind, the increasing dominance of the noösphere over the biosphere in the sense of Cusanus, Kepler, Leibniz, Einstein and Vernadsky.
“It is also in our sovereign interest,” Zepp-LaRouche concluded, “to work together with the global majority of humanity, i.e. the nations of the Non-Aligned Movement, who are now in the process of building a new economic system together with the BRICS-plus countries, where the common good of all is the basis of cooperation.”
