Isn't this a much nicer post than trashing Micheal Jackson? See what you can do when you try to be right?

I agree with you, our economic system is old and dying, trying to keep it on permanent live support is not going to make it any better.

But you have to understand that if the economic system fails this will wipe the Democrats out of the white house, and with midterm elections they can not afford that.

Basically what is happening(to the people who do not understand) is take but dont ask where it came from policy.
Think of the fed as a drug dealer...
Think of our govt as the drug warehouse....
Think of the people as the addicts....

The drug dealer supplies the warehouse with their drugs. Then the warehouse stores and distributes the drugs out to the people by truck,van,pigeon,ect to the addicts.
What is happening is that our warehouse is out of drugs, because our addicts are consuming so much, but have no way to pay back these drugs because they never had the money to pay in the first place. So now our warehouses are in trouble, so they order more product with more interest in order to keep the addicts happy for the time being(but in the end all they are doing is bankrupting us even more and the FED is more than happy to do it because thats more money in their books) with that and other players around the world buying our bonds(but no need to get into that in this example). Now the addicts(the people) notice that they are paying out more money for fake goods that mean absolutely nothing, eventhough it gets them the bread, its basically giving them less for their money until it all evens out(which it wont because its too far in).
So now the addicts want to audit the fed to see how bad they are really screwing over the people, but the FED doesnt want that because that would basically let the addicts know how badly they are being screwed over. so Now the dealer is threatening hell on earth if we look at their books.
In a nutshell.

(mods)-please dont delete this post because I used drugs as an example, in no way am I promoting or endorsing drugs, or drug use. Some people just need to have it painted out for them in a way that they can understand. Thank You.

Think of the FED as a crime syndicate tricking the people into debt so it can later take possession of physical assets.
Think of the Government as a bunch of paid off lackeys turning a blind eye.
Think of the people as victims.

Forget about the drug metaphor, legalize everything so that we can end that silly war.

That man just said more in just a few sentences than anyone could in several paragraphs criticizing the FED/financial system.

Really! He JUST TOLD ALL OF US that the Fed has "cooked the books" and auditing it will prove this AND that the government should have no say in how the Fed operates; thereby, admitting to the still ignorant masses that the Fed is NOT A GOVERNMENT ENTITY and should be able to do what ever the heck it wants and not have to answer to anybody.

How many people do you think will still NOT GET IT?

I don't care if we audit the Fed and the economy collapses, just like I didn't care if we didn't allow the bank bailout to be passed and the same thing happened. I don't care if I have to experience hardships and go through turmoil if it means that the ultimate end result is utter pride in my country.

Why? Because we Americans should exchange our comfortable lives built on nothing more than ignorance and lies in return for full knowledge of how our government really works and how they have made a mockery out of American values. And mental comfort is much more valuable than material comfort.

Only when we are willing to give up those comforts will we be able to rebuild America into what she is truly supposed to be and start living lives of economic and social freedom and be revered by the rest of the world and held up again as a shining example of what humanity deserves on this Earth. We don't have that anymore. That is sadder than anything else when it comes to how I live my life in this country.

Edit to add:

These a-wads don't give a crap about our financial security. They only care about theirs. Who do you thing gets it worse if the economy does collapse? Not us, the "quivering" masses. It's the rich fat cats that only got to where they are, not by hard work, but by working hard at taking advantage of us and siphoning our money from our meager pockets.

They are weaker than us. How do I know that? Because they are afraid that if we stand against them and refuse to let them take our economy hostage anymore in exchange for even more money to line their filthy pockets with, they will be FLAT BROKE and have to answer for their crimes. People that are afraid use fear against those that they know are stronger than them. They are using what they know works. And since fear works on them, they know it will work on us. Except, the difference being, that they have way more to lose than we do!

Who do you think is stronger when it comes to overcoming extreme hardships? Really? Us or them?

It's a battle of will right now and the people need to have the will power to sacrifice in the face of corruption. Why do you think they are resorting to trying to scare the crap out of us? Because fear is the ONLY thing that stands in the way of logic. It's the only thing that makes people go against their better judgment.

If they no longer can use fear against us because we are willing to go head strong into inevitable hardships and in turn accept the responsibility we have in this mess by rolling over and going to sleep (which they refuse to do), they have ABSOLUTELY NO AMMO AGAINST US ANYMORE. None. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

It's kind of hard to vote for Ron when he doesn't appear on most ballots and when his candidacy for president isn't actually determined by the people only being a Governor elected by the people is as far as he can go. Why because in a nut shell the people as a whole are only able to vote for a president placed on a ballot who in the end is there because of super delegates whom jobs were never intended for that purpose in the first place. You knock the fed you don't get on the ballot.

We are not a democracy but seem to be a dimocracy, we are dictated in who we are allowed to vote for in the end. Sure you don't want 5 million people on the ballot but why not 2 votes by the people. 1st vote top three individuals with most votes on the ballot the 2nd which of those three become president. The first ballot has every single governor listed.

But concerning the fed the only way out of this is to go back to the Lincoln idea of greenbacks and I'm not talking about a president trying to push it as if that were to happen he would just be shot. I'm talking the people pushing it small towns are already doing it and it appears to be quite successful. I'm sure, in these towns, there's a lot of tax laws being broken if you go by the book but the fed is the tax hence the problem in the first place.

What I don't get is this. It's the friken federal reserve all they have to do is print up a bunch of cash, pay off the auditors and be done with it. 10billion for each one I'm sure would make their books look all legal like so there is way more going on here that no one is seeing because it would be too easy for them to get away with an audit. So much so I'm starting to think they either got a conscious (which I doubt in this case) or they just plain want it to crash in order to re-establish their dominance on a larger scale.

I've never believed in the NWO jargon as most of it is just so insane no one would be stupid enough to go along with most of the accusations being made about it. However if there was an economical only NWO this would be the way to start it. The sad part if they think they can NWO my countries economics they got another thing coming because I have no problem in that case of printing my own money and refusing to accept any other currency. Sound fed like but in all reality there is no way in heck these people are going to mess with my personal well being through economics. I'd just assume live in a hut in the middle of nowhere than let them get even more wealth off of my but. Their lucky I even pay my taxes now much less then.

Here the kicker Jimmy.

If the fed, with the pull of a trigger, can dismantle the entire US (and Global) financial system and economies....

The economy never existed to begin with.

REAL economies cannot be dismantled by one jerk in a suit. Ours can.

I say let the sky fall.
