Feb. 1, 2025 (EIRNS)—“You have to think in terms of the development laws of the universe at large," Helga Zepp-LaRouche told a gathering of the International Peace Coalition on Jan. 31.”The issue of good or bad is defined by whether a particular action, statement, activity, topic or whatever, contributes to the long-term development of the universe, of the human species. Is it increasing the well-being and relative potential population density of the planet? Is it furthering the laws of the universe, or is it in opposition to them? Because if you don’t have such a guideline as your measurement, you will always end up in conflicts which are exploitable by empires."
Were the United States to learn this lesson, a method of thinking about the strategic situation developed by Lyndon LaRouche, we could free ourselves, along with the rest of the human family, from the troglodytic system of geopolitics and empire which has taken us “even to the edge of doom.”
Take the Trump administration’s historic moves to clean the criminal “Deep State” elements out of the U.S. intelligence agencies, a very public phase of which played out in the Senate this week during the confirmation hearings of Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel. This effort must be supported by every patriotic citizen of the U.S. and must succeed. Take also Trump’s stated intention to meet with Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, and to end the war in Ukraine. These actions all point to a U.S. which is freeing itself from the grip of the imperial war system.
On the other hand, consider the fantasy that the “mighty U.S. dollar” could be stabilized by cryptocurrencies. Anyone who knows anything about the science of physical economy, as opposed to the criminal fraud of Wall Street monetarism, realizes that the global financial system is utterly bankrupt and is now host to the largest speculative bubble in human history—cryptocurrency being just the latest flavor of private speculative fraud. This is a bubble that the Federal Reserve has been propping up as the productive economy has collapsed at an accelerating rate.
Only a revaluation of the currency on a physical economic basis, as proposed by Lyndon LaRouche in his “Four New Laws To Save the U.S.A Now!” facilitated by a collaboration between great powers like the United States and China to enable the physical economic development of all nations, can give value to any currency.
The ultimate direction of the world strategic situation is still very much in flux. Now is a time when voices of leadership with a clarion call for solutions that contribute to the long-term development of the human species can make the difference between war and peace, collapse and a new era of perpetual progress of mankind.
