Zachary Moore and the Case of the Missing Truth

What Was Zachary Trying to Teach?

Zachary’s fake rule was all about showing how some systems we trust don’t have real authority. He was talking about something called fiat money, which is the kind of money we use today. Fiat money isn’t backed by anything valuable like gold or silver. It only works because we all agree to trust it.

Here’s the interesting part: Zachary’s fake rule was just like fiat money! Both of them:

Don’t have anything real behind them.

Only work because people believe in them.

Fall apart when people stop trusting them.

But Zachary also wanted people to see how this system was causing so much harm. Debt created from nothing and lent at interest was making life harder for everyone. People who couldn’t repay their debts were losing their homes and their land. Countries were fighting wars over money and resources, and entire communities were suffering from famine because they couldn’t afford basic necessities. Meanwhile, some people were living in unimaginable luxury, while others barely had enough to survive. This imbalance was creating pain, war, famine, decadence, and endless suffering.

By creating a fake rule, Zachary wanted to show how strange it is that we trust fiat money, even though it’s not backed by anything real. He was saying, “If you think my rule doesn’t have authority, why do you think fiat money does?
