"It's not that much different on Earth," said Wendy. "Ever I can see that."
"Another destructive tool that we applied on Quian, was debt management," said Zy. "The game was designed in such a manner that the weaker people who where less enthusiastic in the game of global stealing, were strangled to death by the stealing. They were forced into debt just to stay alive. They were drive into debt so deep that they had to sell their products at rock bottom prices in order to pay on the debt, so that they had nothing left to survive on. It became so bad that the most severely beaten, rebelled. But they were crushed. Our debt management scheme unleashed the worst fascist looting and repression you can imagine, because in a dying economy there are no buyers, even for the cheap products. The game that we created became a time bomb that killed the stronger economies when they were forced to absorb the cheap imports; and it killed the suppliers too. The once productive economies had become so focused on the cheap that they let their own industries collapse, and the suppliers of the cheap products let their people collapse."
"This had a worse effects on the global society than slavery," said Olaf.
Zy told us that this two pronged game became so successful that it inadvertently helped him with the third phase of their project to collapse the capacity to fight wars. He told us that as the economies collapsed, the food industries lost ground and simply disintegrated for lack of funding, the lack of revenue, and the lack of infrastructures in the terms of fertilizers, fuel, and transportation, which also collapsed. "We though that was good, because under semi-starvation conditions people become weak and develop diseases and die. It's physically impossible to fight wars with a sick and dying population."
"We really thought at one point that this would prevent them from fighting wars," said Olaf. "We celebrated. This was to be the final clincher according to the most advanced liberal doctrine that we could find on the Earth. Everything we read, everyone we talked to, assured us that this painful reversion towards depopulation would bring the society back to the kind of primitive ages in which nuclear weapons have no place because they are too difficult to maintain."
"The cultural reversion should have rendered all of their nuclear weapons systems impotent by neglect. That is what we were told by all of the think-tank-people that we spoke to," said Zy. "But it didn't work on Quian. It worked on Gribbork where seven percent of the people survived."
"Not only were the sick unable to work," said Olaf, "but the necessary care for them had added such a huge load on the dying economies that the very notion of care was simply abandoned. Depopulation was said to be good for the planet, and the people believed that. We believed this crap ourselves."
"Everything went according to plan," said Zy. "Except we hadn't realized that the plan itself was a conspiracy. It was a plan designed to fail. We, like all simple-minded people, fell for. The plan was quietly pushed into our arena like a Trojan Horse. We didn't see it. It was standard stuff in imperial textbooks. It was designed to produce this end and it did. However, on Quian the process didn't stop at the desired end. When the ejaculation of madness begins it cannot be stopped at will."
"Every oligarchic doctrine is a conspiracy," said Olaf.
"We realized this too late," said Zy. "We began to notice the stench behind this trap when the nuclear weapons systems on Quian were not shut down by the wave of collapse that we set in motion, as we had been assured them would happen," added Zy. "The nuclear weapons were not neglected, but were protected to the very end by the oligarchic society that we had created on Quian. Oligarchism is just another term for fascism. This means that nuclear bomb fits the game. On Earth it was the great 'humanitarian' Russell who had lobbied for the nuclear bomb, and Russell had his roots in the oligarchy. So the two go together hand in hand."
