    I came here to express my joy over the Discipline buffs but instead I came across a deeply misinformed political discussion about the Red Cross and the USA's economic situation. Please wait just a moment while I put on my surprised face.

    Anyway, 200% on Rapture and a 20% buff to baseline DA procs should make disc much more viable in heroic. Thank you chaud!

    If people want to argue politics, there's already other forums for that on MMO-Champion. Feel free to even create your own thread there. Just not here, ok? =/

    And you know what?

    In current "high tech" society and civilization money is based on the basic principle of existence itself! On the exactly the same law/rule as all living beings!

    "I am that I am and I am the 'law' "

    Money is nothing else than a state's (national/country) law that declares "money" as the only legal tender in the economy of the corresponding area/territory.

    But their is one big, prime problem which such a thing, "fiat" money. Its value is based on pure speculation and hazard of "high banking", which operate beyond the scope of goods exchange and on "vampire" principle of usury.

    IT IS THAT THING WHICH NEEDS TO CHANGE, NOT SAVING AND HIGHER TAXES!

    With higher taxes and saving we are only prolonging "status quo" (current state of only increasing debt but at slower pace) to the total collapse and destruction of human civilization. Unless those who "run the show" decide to trigger another world war for total economy reset.

    My 2 (euro)cents of completely out of topic and almost hijacked tread.
