Free market capitalism is best anti-poverty program ever devised by man.
Things are changing, people are waking up and no, capitalism is outdated. The majority of humans will not agree to that statement for another 100 years if we survive that long.
The trickle down theory does not work.
I am not advocating socialism either but rather a mixture of the two or even something else entirely.
Read three books by Ervin Laszlo
** The Sytems View of the World
** The Chaos Point The World At The Crossroads
** Chaos Point 2012 And Beyond Our Choices Between Global Disaster and a Sustainable Planet
These three books give viable solutions for most of the problems we now face as a species.

That's taking the easy way out.
We need to start thinking outside the box..............things aren't working well right now.
Read the three books than decide.
Not taking in all the data you possibly can is, in my humble and respectful opinion, being closed minded.
Capitalism in and of itself is outdated.
There has got to be a better way of doing business. The way we are headed thus far isn't good.

Last time I checked, the Constitution doesn't allow the US govt to keep secrets from
it's citizens.

Best system ever? I had almost destroyed are planet, the gap between rich and poor is hugeeeee.. 1% takes it all, the rest just lives in a prison state without rights.. What happens when you lose your job? No house, no social welfare.. Its capitalism that has made the world what it is today.. Watch the shock doctrine, inside job, capitalism a love story and come back and tell me you still think the same.. This system creates poverty, just look at Africa..

I agree.. 2 moderators trying to debunk everything that is said... not much of a conspiracy forum if the moderators are going to spoil the fun! lol
...they must be trying to put us off the scent!
America is magic because we have a financially strong middle class.

Go check again. It's called national security.
Stop portraying the USA as a bunch of monsters.

For reasons of national security we cannot give public tours of Area 51.
The technology is dual use technology.
If it got into the wrong hands, it could be used against Israel.

What for? What are you looking for?
Fort Knox? There's a lot of gold there. So what?

Audit the Fed? Sounds good to me.
I don't know if you have heard but the Federal Reserve has become the new - honey pot -
for the liberals. The Dodd Frank bill created the CFPB.
Funding for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau comes from the Federal Reserve.
Why not have it come from the US congress?
We need to know what else is going on at the Federal Reserve.
