Book excerpt: Money Hoax brings awareness and deep thought to the fact that money, whether paper currency, electronic or both, easily exceeds world's population of 7 billion people countless times over. However, all countries especially those labelled third world, spares no efforts to bemoan shortages of money or currency, which according to their narrative, is required to better lives or to do good, while said countries counts and owes money in the trillions. People are denied health care, food, water, houses, education, acquiring a skill, in fact, the narrative is one needs money to survive, and it takes cash to care, the craziest lie even been told and lived. It begs the question If people not just precedes money but money cannot exist or come into being without people, why do people need money to survive. This book has taken the bold step not to make excuses or agree there is a lack of money in my island Jamaica and rest of world to use for common good, but rather to bring an awareness that the lack of money narrative is nothing but a deliberate act to create scarcities which ensures a few profit while the majority are marginalized. With this gap in the haves and have not, divisions are easily created; divide and rule, manipulate, control resources, control work, and by extension control people. To give honor and allegiance to God, to love neighbor as self over the love and hoarding of money, is a key lesson to be learnt from this book, and convert same to action, because one day very soon, money will be thrown away in the streets and no one to pick it up.
