New World Order rescheduled

A popular subject for conspiracy theorists concerns the Latin declaration on the backside of the American dollar bill (and originally, also the backside of the national seal)- the Novus Ordo Seclorum. This translates as New Order of the Ages, or more popularly- New World Order. The speculation is that this NWO means to be the perpetually soon to pass ending of governments and religion as we know it (or as they knew it in 1776). A dastardly plot is American history, with aims for nothing less than world domination. Conservative conspiracy loons blame Democratic leaders every bit as often as Liberal conspiracy loons blame Republican leaders, all of trying their darnedest to bring the whole thing about.
Well. What if the world domination inferred is not something akin to any presumed manner of world domination?
And- what if this proposed New World Order is not a thing waiting in the wings? What if we are already living in it, and have for years?
What about that curious In God We Trust to be found on all American currencies? What if the currency itself IS the god envisioned? What if Capitalism IS the intended New World Order?
Because of course, the almighty dollar does- in modern decades- hold far more weight than either Church or State. Not all citizens of the Western world regularly attend any church, and not all citizens of the Western world even vote (by choice or otherwise). Yet each and every one of us is bred to obsess over money. Indeed, survival itself rests entirely on our finances, and upon the economy maintained in faith by our chosen leaders. More than ever before, we find ourselves living in a time where everything has a price- especially life and death, and the pursuit of happiness. What else is there for us?
And why are things like this? How could we allow our lives to be backed into a corner to such an insane degree? More importantly- who is benefiting from the arrangement? Those who control the cash control the Order of our New World. We have been doing the dance for so long we have ground our tracks well beneath the sod. We were waiting for alien conspiracies, not the bitterness of reality, but that's what we got.

The saddest Tragedy is that most folks will never see the Comedy of any of this.
