I think most folks don't pay much attention to it because they have more than enough to worry about as it is and if they ever run short they can just turn on the news and get hundreds of new things to worry about without ever coming into contact with the principle cause of their worries, an economic system that's long, long overdue a revamp. Mention some of the key points, "the central bank is a private company owned by anonymous shareholders", "the money in your pocket comes into existence when someone takes out a loan", etc. and the eyes glaze over, maybe a brief period of shock and amazement but before too long its forgotten in favour of the pre-packaged drama of the week or just how the hell they're going to pay their mortgage/rent this month... with money conjured up out of thin air and backed by a rigged casino and greed, it's either laugh or cry :/
The ESFs mandate probably made a lot of sense 80odd years ago, just like the federal reserves did 100odd years ago and in principle that fund could serve a very useful purpose but in practice its being used to drive the dollar to artificially high values and creating a huge risk of reaching a breaking point where it can't overcome the true strength of global competition and the whole house of cards comes a'tumbling down. The smoking gun... amidst all that the 8 year boom/bust cycle the ESF was primarily intended to prevent continues unabated and guess who makes the most from that cycle... You don't have to look far, billions of dollars worth of stock and real estate swept up with round after round of QE, "our saviours, taking the loss and saving us from ruin, huragh". Lol, not hard to take a loss when you're creating value from thin air and getting real-world value in exchange and even better, you can pass it off to the taxpayer later for a 100% gain! Am I ranting? Yup... best leave it there :/
