The late Dominican Paul Hynes once commented that the banks were all-powerful not becasue they had people's money but rather becasue they knew how much people had and what they did with their money. He went on to say that power was always linked with knowledge. It was a remark he made in the 1970s.
It's an analysis that makes sense.
These days one of the buzz words is 'transparency'. Citizens seem to clamour for transparency, especially from their politicians. Does it happen?
What about the church, dioceses, religious congregations?
If transparency doesn't happen is it due to crass inefficiency or is it part of a plan to keep people in the dark?
Whatever the reasons, it becomes terribly tedious and annoying.

Henry Ford said once:
"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning."
The reason why he said it was the fact that money is created from thin air. You really have to understand this because i think it's the cause of all the wars and hunger etc. There are lots of very good made videos which explain it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx0vrR2BFp8&list=RDZx0vrR2BFp8#t=72
