“About TZM: The Zeitgeist Movement is a global sustainability activist group working to bring the world together for the common goal of species sustainability before it is too late. Divisive notions such as nations, governments, races, political parties, religions, creeds or class are non-operational distinctions in the view of The Movement. Rather, we recognize the world as one system and the human species as a singular unit, sharing a common habitat.”

“In this presentation Peter discusses how the Market Economy has not only evolved/simplified into its most core function of blind gain and hence the arbitrary trading of the widget, using the Stock Market / Financialization as a point of focus, he also explains how any social progress that has occurred has happened by proxy – or incidental to the market game.
He describes what all Free-Market proponents ignore: the true, measurable system consequences which are suffocating humanity – with Capitalism now the leading cause of death on Earth today. He also explains how an ethically respected, pure free market (even if it was possible – which it is not, as argued) would generate constant deprivation/ethical imbalance – due to the pressure-building externalities that the Market cannot solve due to its foundational mechanisms. Also, the idea of Crony-Capitalism vs. Free Market Capitalism is proven to be a Continuum Fallacy and a delusion via moral relativism. He finishes with two proposals for future TZM projects to help transition.”
