The biggest Hoax ever?...

Making modern beings believe that "life is better than it has ever been" in this dark age! - Glorified slaves of a "man made economy" rather than Masters of "personal creativity" - ones knowledge is power...money is nothing more than self masterbation!

The biggest, most widespread, verifiable hoax that I've ever experienced in my life is called a "Federal Reserve Note", created by a private bank that people still believe is part of the federal government. Fooled me to my core.



And wwhat has happened that you now believe it to be a hoax?
The Fed certainly has not admitted to perpetrating, so why do you now have this belief


Of course they did. It is advertised on all current US paper money-- "This Note is Legal Tender For All Debts, Public and Private". Look up the word, "Note" in a legal dictionary.

I read the legal definition of "Note" and realized that I was participating in the hoax by continuing to use paper money. So I stopped using paper money (including credit, banks, and all other instruments associated with Federal Reserve Notes), and I've never been wealthier. My quality of life has improved greatly.

I don't use much of anything now. I took a course in "Private Business" and have never been the same since. I grow and raise our own food, and have little desire for the latest gadgets. An easy way to remove the need for FRNs is to go back to what is actually needed to be happy, and cut everything else. For the few bills I do have, I use a physical gold & silver broker--he's about as close to a "bank" as I get, I guess you could call him a "frontman". I trade for "must have" items with neighbors and local businesses when I can't get things for free. You'd be surprised how many free things are available in your local town. People can't wait to give things away. Yard sales are great-- by the end of the day, people pile their stuff up and tell you to take it. My method isn't anything special. I just ask myself about priorities. FRNs are not a priority for me. Being happy and content in life is a priority.

The deception enginereed and perpetuated by the media to convince the American people that Sarah Palin isn't completely oblivious to the needs of the average person while still doing everything she can to appeal to them.
Trying to pass her off as intelligent has taken so much time and resources. She will give a very serious run.

Vote Paul.

I know alot of people that would vehemently disagree with that statement. Most people believe that she is nothing more than a propped up talking head, but when it comes down to it, she does not have what it takes to be successful at a national level.

The greatest HOAX of all, is the illusion that has been Bestowed upon everyone. That Is Money and Material objects. The world, Family and friends and those who you do not know, are the most important things anyone can have. So I guess this would be the greatest Hoax of man kind. S&F

EDIT: I will change that to just a star, as it will not let me flag

the greatest hoax ever in my opinion was the "moon landing"... the whole thing appears to have been set up in a studio. the lighting is the biggest give away followed by the american flag which, i believe should be flapping about in the wind. FAIL!

Flapping in the wind, in the vacuum of space?
There are good arguments for the moon landing being faed, but Ive never heard that one.
