John G Root Jr

I am a beneficiary of 13 years of Waldorf Education. My father taught History and my mother taught Eurythmy in the Rudolf Steiner School in NYC. My father had a photocopy of Carroll Quigley's book “Tragedy and Hope” and I learned a lot about the hidden hand of the banking cartel from him. In our senior year in High School we studied the Communist Manifesto, the Wealth of Nations and Rudolf Steiner’s Threefold Social Order. After dropping out of Bowdoin College my wife and I and my best friend and his wife went to Camphill Communities in Germany to learn Anthroposophical social therapy and special education. In England I founded the Talander Medical Service a Threefold alternative to the National Health Service. When we came back to America, I committed my life to creating voluntary, self-governing communities in which it is no handicap to be labelled disabled. I was a founder and leading light of the Cadmus Lifesharing Association, and of Cadmus and Cascades Recycling. I was instrumental in establishing the first Community Supported Agriculture project in America at Indian Line Farm in 1984. I have been a member of the BoD of Berkshares and of Common Good. I founded a monetary reform group in Massachusetts, “Credit to the People”, and conducted an intensive seminar called Just Abundance. This was much more satisfying than battling the Massachusetts Department of Developmental Services. The DDS worked incessantly to turn Cadmus from a community into a service company, in exchange for state funding. We succeeded in not complying with their rules and regulations from 1984 to 2009, because the staff of the DDS considered us the Gold Standard. Clients could be funded, but not members of a non-compliant community. The Commissioner of the DDS said no more coddling Cadmus. When my longtime Cadmus Lifesharing companion died, I left Cadmus and devoted myself to restoring the Republic and Monetary reform. My go to book is Stephen Zarlenga’s The Lost Science of Money. My particular focus is the Nature of Money. I have written a book: Freedom. Justice, Community, (Voluntary Self-Governing Jural Assembly Communities funded with Community-Created Credit give us a Society that Benefits Everyone). I am well read, and a deep thinker. I know how to connect the dots. My focus has been on the research of monetary historians including Stephen Zarlenga, Ellen Brown, Bernard Leitaer, Thomas Greco, David Graber, Paul Grignon, Catherine Austin Fitts, Joseph Farrell, Carroll Quigley, Gabor Boritt, Benjamin Franklin, Lysander Spooner, Alexander del Mar, and Antony Sutton, and many more. The monetary reform movement is the surest path to creating the ideal social future, our birthright and our hearts desire.
