  • Apropos the Japanese economy, watch a 2011 anime called "C; The Money of Soul and Possibility Control". It's a masterpiece and shows that the Japanese are fully aware of the deliberate implosion of the economy.

  • The thing with money is the state own the machines that print it - costs them nothing - money is just to get your labour and oppress

  • If you think freedom from the state will only come on with boredom then it scares me because we havent gotten bored in 6,000 years.

  • @stefbot This happens everywhere throughout history. If this is boring to you, then why bring it up? "Shut the door in his face?" Why don't you show us how to fix the problem.

  • How can you shut the door in their face when it comes to the body scanners and feel-ups? The only thing you can do is to convince the public of it's dangers, so they will refuse to submit to them. The only thing you can do personally is to refuse the scan and pat-down and stop flying. The first is doable but it takes some self respect, the second one is better, but sometimes you have to fly.

  • Nice political-related cartoons Mr. Stefan. Boycott the body scanners, pat-downs at airports by not using their airline companies! Use bus, train, and ship.

  • @doctorofghetto2 The next phase is they will put them on buses, trains and ships!

  • @grumpone

    If they have the body-scanners and pat downs on buses, trains and ships, I will boycott them. It would just be like the Montgomery Bus Boycott back in the 1960's. If that was successful in segregation, it would be sucessful in the U.S.'s 4th Amendment right.

  • Don't underestimate the indoctrinated mind of the average citizen and their ability to live within a distorted reality of delusion and denial. Just as they have been programmed to do. Clarity is absent and the elephant in the room is invisible to most. The TSA debacle is a positive event in the awakening process of the sleeping giant. With each mind that is disconnected from the matrix, the coalescing force of mass social awareness is gaining momentum, gravitating towards truth and understanding

  • @hipbas Beautifully worded, Well done.

  • @hipbas True, it has been hidden up till now. But when someone starts to feel you up or blasts you with radiation to reveal your naked body to strangers, then you might just see the physically and mentally abusive relationship they have toward you.

  • I don't get it why is Stefan condescending towards the TSA outrage? Yeah, it's a delayed reaction, but it's still can be useful. It's better than quietly accepting it. In this case sarcasm doesn't help.

  • There's a huge difference between Iceland and Ireland. The main one being Iceland had a referendum on whether to bail out the bankers or not and voted no! They also kicked the fraudulent bankers out that caused the financial mess and told them if they ever returned they'd be arrested and imprisoned!

    Iceland did what every so called "democratic" nation should of done but didn't because like the USA and UK they aren't governments they're puppets employed by the corporate mafia bankers!

  • This guy is pretty funny. Truth with a dose of fun.

  • I will say...it's not boring in the least bit. It's infuriating. And no matter how many times this may have happened in different countries, it doesn't make it any less concerning. Each generation is faced with worse problems and more debt. So, it's new to my children even if it has happened numerous times. Nonetheless, good information.

  • Neither Ireland nor Iceland is a problem in terms of size, but Spain and France will kill us. Your favorite economist Krugman wrote in his blog that there is a "slowmotion bank run" going on in Ireland right now. That will probably give us the rest. When you turn on the TV here in Germany you hear about 3.6% growth and economic boom on all channels. Not a single word about Ireland or Spain. Thank god we have 16 state tv channels and 56 state radio stations.

  • I guess Charles Trippy caused all of this. He's pure evil, lol.

  • Does anyone think that what happen to Japan will happen to China?

  • @Stefbot: what would you do if you had a lot of euros?

  • Not only is destructive cycle of statism predictable - so are the trolly, conspiratorial, and ridiculous youtube comments :)

  • The blood analogy is a great one for what is happening

  • The Zeitgeist Movement is the only Group out there that has brought up some Real and Tangible Solutions to ACTUALLY SOLVE OUR ECONOMICAL, SOCIAL & ECOLOGICAL CRISIS - to know more about it, watch: "Awakening 1/4" (short video) and "Zeitgeist Addendum". Both of them are on YouTube.The SOLUTIONS presented in both videos are already being applied and they have already been proved to work in the short and long run. It's about time to expand/spread it World Wide.

  • @FactualSolutions All the zeitgeist people ever do is direct you to a video. Are the answers that complicated? Is it not violence that makes them complicated? I challenge you to differentiate zeitgeist(ism?) from communism. Are you or are you not supporting a coercive central government that suppresses the people? What good does taking money out of the system do?

  • @gradiu3rox - to more info about you've just asked - watch:

    - "The Zeitgeist Movement - Common Objections, Observations, Responses" -

    - "Where are we now?" -

    - "Where are we going?" -

    - "Social Pathology " -

    - "Who is Peter Joseph?"

  • @FactualSolutions you see, I want YOU to tell me in your own wards, because I don't think you actually understand what you are preaching.

  • if you don't understand the info presented on those videos I've posted,i can't help you - the SOLUTIONS presented on those videos I've posted are already being applied. (google "Live In Your Own Venus Project City TODAY" to see it for yourself).And by the way,I am not here to convince anyone of anything, I am here to present information,nothing else (check the info, the sources and make up your own mind.Over 450,000 people already did it and this number is growing fast).

    All the best.

  • @FactualSolutions You are a tool.

  • @gradiu3rox

    "You are a tool."...to spread awareness about a Resource Based Economy :)

    again,the SOLUTIONS presented in both videos I've posted are already being applied and they have already been proved to work in the short and long run(google "Live In Your Own Venus Project City TODAY" to see it for yourself).And by the way,I am not here to convince anyone of anything, I am here to present information,nothing else (check the info, the sources and make up your own mind.Over 480,000 already did

  • @FactualSolutions I love the venus project...wish more would support it...I'll check out that sight...I really want to start my garden soon...just need to see what will grow around here in AZ during the winter...;)

  • @santomon07 - good to read that - as you know - stop supporting this corrupt system is also our goal - and sustainability, grow your own and cooperation comes along the way.

    all the best santomon

  • @FactualSolutions @FactualSolutions Well you've shown us those videos, here is an article for you to see: htt p://mises . o r g/daily/4636

  • @masonkiller666 - thanks pal - i took a look on it - the guy that wrote the article was very critic but he is very open minded also

    :)

  • @FactualSolutions the Zeitgeist Movement doesn't believe in money and want a Utopian society. Which can’t work, money work before fiat money in the forum of gold and without government control.. All movements that want to make Utopian societies and get into power have always made hell for the common person living in those Social experiments. Just look up Communism, Fascism and Nazism, all start out with the idea of Utopian paradise that if they can just put their ideas into life people will see.

  • Thanks for the info.But again,the SOLUTIONS presented in both videos I've posted are already being applied and they have already been proved to work in the short and long run(google "Live In Your Own Venus Project City TODAY" to see it for yourself).And by the way,I am not here to convince anyone of anything, I am here to present information,nothing else (check the info, the sources and make up your own mind.Over 450,000 people already did it and this number is growing fast).

  • Haha, he showed Charles Trippy yawning.

  • Great post.

  • so then how do we get out of this damned circle?!?

  • @nickbrass He told you in the final seconds. "Shut the door in his face".

    He pretty much tells us in this whole clip. Eventually, enough people will just get so fed up with it that they'll just not bother. A starter could be to just not vote. But like he says, this "damned circle" will just end with a big yawn. Almost everyone is fed up with it already but they stick with it cause they don't see any other alternative.

  • @MrReedux wouldn't it be more efficient to get a president/prime minister up there that works for the people & destroys the corruption of the government from within? or is that impossible to achieve?

  • @nickbrass raise our children better. It's a war of attrition, but truth will win. Probably not in our lifetimes though :(

  • @gradiu3rox heh..sounds good :P i'll make sure to raise 'em well once i have some :)

    a shame it wont happen soon tho :/

  • Death to Euro haha funny lets see about whois going down first ;)

  • Thank you so much for your thinking :)

  • Great video.  Very well stated.

  • indeed it is the same like injecting imaginary blood into a fast dying person

  • I disagree with the perspective on the TSA issue. Is it possible that this 'outrage' is the first visible response by the American sheeple, that they are in fact beginning to awake??

  • If there is a better opportunity than the TSA scanners and "pat down" for doing outreach to others regarding why government needs to fail and why we are better off without government, I wonder what that opportunity might be. After nearly a decade in Afghanistan, a dissenter is met with a shrug and an "eh" from the average American. Where can a climber gain purchase? I wouldn't be too dismissive or flippant about opportunities to share mutually beneficial ideas.

  • Very good analysis!

  • just because something is apparently obvious to you doesn't mean its obvious to others. Instead of feeling intellectually superior within your little niche perhaps you could show some courage and try speaking to people who've never heard about this stuff. Just a thought.

  • @TheRealNickBravo

    Pointing out the obvious isn't 'intellectually superior'

  • @TheRealNickBravo I'm with you on this, that's why I handed out flyer's at the airport. Not to disrupt people's holiday plans, but to inform them. I agree with Stefan in that people should not be surprised, and of course, those in the liberty movement were not. But, being part informed minority, I personally feel I have to inform others who have not educated themselves in such matters. I take pity on the state loving masses and desire to help them so they in turn help themselves and others

  • :38 CTFxC FTW!!

  • So spain had hyperinflation while on a gold standard? Their economy must of had no growth while mining the gold.

  • Comment removed

  • lol, charles trippy at 0:38

  • some of the video images were distracting and detracted form your usually good content....

  • Suicide as a solution ? I wouldn't go that far, but almost though, cause I'm just waiting for the biological solution. Even the rich have to die one day, don't they ?

  • 5 stars

  • its all a game, only a few understand it - the exit is only suicide!

  • @proderivat Intereseting comment. Are you still there ? bwaha.

    The problem with suicide is the how to. If you believe the materialist propaganda, it should be wasy enough. But serious consideration and eveidence points the other way. The true art of suicide seems to be more in the lines of self-transcendence a la Buddha or Luke 9:23-24 .

  • I abhor violence but the biggest problem I have with Agorism/Voluntaryism is that, in many ways, I see it as a p*ssy's way out. Ignoring the problem by "dropping out" and making your own little community doesn't make it go away. Look at what happened in the 60's with the communes and such. Did anything ultimately change? No, it didn't. Prepare yourself on many levels, including for the probable eventuality of violent revolution. You can't justify quitting as being "revolutionary."

  • @jetlrn

    What about forming your own community and arresting/prosecuting anyone that tries to enforce a government statute within the communities borders?

    Directly attacking the government in a revolution has proven to be a piss-poor way of achieving social change. Google the 'Ipperwash Crisis' for a potentially better way of securing land.

  • many people have been brainwashed by entertainment

    they have never seen the world around them

  • We should just nuke the world and get it over with.

  • Having body scanners is just another way of getting people more and more used to the personal intrusion that will be the norm in the "brave new world" that we're heading towards

  • @hachiman2012 Nope. There is no "master plan" for introducing a "new world order" through habituation. This is just Rapiscan using the coercive power of government to make a sh*t load of money (PS: You are paying).

    Just Google Michal Chertoff.

  • @Alhoshka yes, on one level it's about corporations using corrupt governments to profit from our ignorance and apathy but if you think it ends there then ur mistaken...the rabbit hole goes much deeper

  • your vids are gold , i love them

  • i disagree that we shouldnt protest the tsa just because they have been doing it for some years now.

    why the cynicism towards the protesters? why would you discourage or belittle people who are trying to push back against the state? i could make the same pretentious characterization of your attempts to get the word out on youtube, couldn't i?

  • @jalexander3 because protesting against the TSA is analogous to losing your shit over someone administering a lethal injection without giving the victim an alcohol swab. The state is doing FATAL harm to it's citizenry, and we're worried about being poked and prodded in the airport? Come on, there are far worse things we need to combat against.

  • @qedwins

    Thank you for saying that. As a libertarian sometimes I am left scratching my head with what people decide is conversation worthy.

    I always end up repeating, "You are arguing a moot point, the principle is what I am stressing here..."

  • @qedwins But this seems to be what the sheeple might band together over. Sure there are millions of worse reasons to be mad, but with the help of the MSM this is what is important. I don't fly and won't fly now, but what Im saying is that if we the people win the elite will see we do care. if we lose the elite will know still that they can get away with even touching our kids privates in front of us. That will not stand man , this aggression will not stand. The dude DOES NOT abide man!

  • @qedwins But yes it is very dumb that after all the crap the elite have done to us, scanning and touching us have put us over the edge. The resistance to the TSA may be being hyped, because I trully think they want a revolution so they can mow us down along with the population numbers. All for the coming Utopia. HAHA

  • @jalexander3 people have tried to push back the state since its very existence. they are either doing it wrong, or its impossible. now for example protesting, that is something that has been around for years. doesent work.

  • @jalexander3 I agree...we should never become cynical sheep just waiting for the slaughter. We all need to fight the system in our own way...even if the fight we see appears to be impossible or overwhelming. Without hope we might as well be dead. Great vid again stefbot!

  • It isn't shock that the "government is doing it again"... as you say, they are boringly predictable. I just don't relish the idea of some 500 lb gorilla with the intelligence of a banana slug sticking his hands down my pants and playing with the family jewels. Then again, considering the amount of people willing to put up with government goons fondling the fun stuff, perhaps it is a secret fantasy for many! LOL!

  • Remember, selling your soul is easy, getting it back, now that is tough.

  • thank you for the vid! i absolutely agree...

  • europe is like falout 2

  • I dislike the state. I am anti state. I hate the state. But when people en masse get fed up with the state and start bitching about their various agencies... well... I hate that too. So I compare them to other idiots.

  • I cherish your videos sir. But I would be remiss if I didn't raise one simple query: If "freedom breeds collapse", if the smaller the government at the initial stages, the larger the totality of rule that results, considering that each generation is born ignorant into the care of their imperfect parents: wouldn't one grain of fear & dependence, in anarchy, in the best sense we can conceive it, result in the worst totalitarianism, just as the propaganda predicts, based on what you yourself claim?

  • I believe the TSA thing can be used to open the eyes of some of those who have been unwilling to open them before.

  • Nice video but I totally disagree with the conclusion.

    We SHOULD keep getting 'shocked' at these new measures and alerting others to them. Regimes don't end with a yawn, they end with a war.

  • @LibertyDownUnder The US already has more wars than it can handle, it's morally and fiscally bankrupted the country, and the majority of the people yawn, only to waken grumpily when it hits personally in the pocketbook, loss of jobs, perks, or a crotch grope. But you're right, only it's a slow-motion collapse.

  • @leafwatch, true but the US did actually get itself out of a worse mess twice already.

    In 1920 and in 1946.

    Just a shame it takes a world war to bring this around.

  • @LibertyDownUnder Things are definitely worse now than in 1920 and 1946. Our debt was much less back then and we were a trade surplus nation. Also the income tax didn't apply to 95% of the population in 1920 and was very small in 1946 so today there is not a pot of disposable income out there for the government to take. They have to print or borrow to get the money they need.

  • @bunsh1ch1, because there's so much than can be improved and so many burdens that can be lifted off the private sector - this may actually mean it would be easier to recover now, compared to 1946.

    If all you do is cut corporate taxes and cancel minimum wage, you will see unemployment fall to 2% in less than a year.

    But this is all in theory. I don't know what it would take to get these reforms.

  • @LibertyDownUnder Cutting corporate taxes and canceling minimum wage would not change the fact the america is still more expensive than china to do business in. America's unemployment problem will not go away until business can make a case that operating in america is more cost effective than china. America and china wages need to equal at some point before we can see single digit unemployment again.

  • @bunsh1ch1

    Both would drastically help make doing business in the US more affordable.

    You're also assuming that productivity levels per employee hour are the same here as in China. The US/man hr is by far and away the most productive country in the world. Many businesses are realizing that after looking at the results of their outsourcing. Add in low or in the case of Fair Tax, no corporate taxes and you'll have jobs flooding into the US and entrepreneurship soaring.

  • @bunsh1ch1, Why do you think that cutting taxes and min wage would NOT make the US more competitive?

  • @LibertyDownUnder @KaelinSaint I'm saying cutting corporate tax isn't enough. A business largest expenses is employees the average wage in Beijing is $4/hr in the US it is $22/hr this is what make China so attractive. You can make the corporate tax rate 0% in the US and China is still cheaper because a chinese employee is 1/5 the price. FYI, $4/hr is a good middle class wage in china one can live just as well as the $22/hr american.

  • @bunsh1ch1, corporate tax cuts and lower min wage are not a silver bullet, but they are a big step in the right direction.

  • @LibertyDownUnder

    civil war is not a solution to a violent regime.

    if you start a violent revolution, i assure you it will be lead by men who are good at violence. and i assure you when they win the revolution, they will be the ones in power, and they will build the new governmental system on the one thing they know most about. the one thing they're good at.

  • @1schwererziehbar1, I'm not suggesting it's a good idea to start a war, I'm just saying that historically this is the only thing that led to an eventual cure.

  • @LibertyDownUnder

    what's your historical example of violence leading to "an eventual cure"?

  • @1schwererziehbar1, after WW2 the US slashed it's federal budget by half. The economy boomed and unemployment fell.

    Dito after WW1, unemployment fell from 12% to 2% when they cut the budget in half.

    You can see the detailed explanation here by Thomas Woods, if you have the time: /watch?v=czcUmnsprQI

  • @LibertyDownUnder Glad you're not a practictioner since it was never a cure. Just perceived as so from "history".

  • @nocturnalc, I never suggested the war is the cure. Please read the previous comments.

    I suggested IT LEAD to the cure. The cure being reducing spending and taxes.

  • @stefbot A plain english solution might be in order..... Do you have a suggestion other than shutting the door in his face???

  • i agree steph but what can we do about the ever increasing police state?

  • @badjer1785 Sit back, relax, and watch it all destroy itself and maybe cheer it on from time to time. lol

  • Your best work yet! Loved it!!!

  • great video!

  • Sometimes I simply do not agree with all that you say and it is so frustrating when you come up with a pearler like this.

    IMHO, this is one of your most finest pieces.

    Kudos!

  • great video backgrounds and great info!

  • years ago, during my generation's hayday, the "WHO" sang "We Won't Be Fooled Again". Is there going to be a redux? We were.

  • @piecarbob I think you'll find the line "we dont get fooled again", followed the line "and I'll get on my knees and pray" unfortunately even roger daltrey can pray off the inevitable. which is that the rich, ruling elite are psycopathic power addicts obsessed with their own immortality.

  • Rapiscan received 325,000,000 dollars near the same time as the boxer bomber incident. You remember, the guy who was escorted around the security measures directly on to the plane. Rapiscan is an India Company. And, the guy who was escorting was a sharpley dressed india man. Your right, its all about the money. Including what happened with the supposed UPS plane from yemen. Brits report, it was not a bomb. Yemen officials said, there was no ups plane that took off from yemen to britain or the us

  • "SLAM"

  • I home darling...

  • :( is there any hope for the future?

  • So true !

  • You may minimize the reaction to the scanners, but I'm sure it's waking up some people who otherwise would still be asleep. Anything that works.

  • its a little scary how true and accurate all of stef's predictions and past statements are becoming...

    I remember 2 years ago him saying to make note of all Obama's promises for change and how absolutely nothing will actually change...and voila in a few months we will be at the 2 year anniversary of him being sworn into office

  • I feel comfort from your videos they are so predictable..like the predicability of the politics you describe. I understand also why you choose to ignore Television fakery (planes passing intact through steel walls 911 TV footage) as you make a nice living out of 'media' and dont want to bite the hand that feeds you.

    Just know this. you are on the side of the people you protest about. Methinks you dost protest too much.

  • @skyarcher What?

    This guy podcasts and Youtubes out of his house and makes a living from listener donations.

  • We need to have freedom without growing the government. Hey, that sounds like our original Republic.

  • *Yawn* Excellent video Stef.

  • 4:25-4:55 Try not to be so smug and sarcastic with your kid when she makes her inevitable mistakes. Making her feel ridiculous will hurt more than if you'd smacked her.

  • thx a lot, great vid stef!

  • *sigh*

    Stupid state...

  • wtf is a sexaholic?

  • @pretorious700 Someone addicted to sexahol, DUH!

  • for fukks sake i hope toob fix their video player soon i have to hit refresh 3 times before videos even play. good vlog once again

  • I don't think it's fair to say the TSA protests are pathetic... This newest upset has personified Statism in a way that people now intimately realize. Maybe this can be used to roll back the state in some meaningful way?

  • @MumboJumboDaily rollback?

    Abolish!

  • The truth really ?

  • Spot on! Trying to change things with politics is like fighting an enemy with weapons he gives you.

  • Stefan, could you please speak a little slower. This went by so fast I had to listen to it multiple times to get all the details :(...

  • The Fed is a wife beater and we're scared to leave.

  • @JizzonTheDark yes. more specifically it is an abusive relationship. take the government, military and society. To those that know, the military is an abusive relationship; which is controlled by the government. If the government had its way society would be run the same way; and it slowly is if you consider how abusive cops are becooming. As I've said; "greed and violence are the tools by which we rule the world."

  • glad to see you know that protesting is pretty much pointless. i thought i was alone on that matter

  • @TheAmazeingAnarchist .. although pointless it is better than just watching tv.. i am not one to protest but i am with those that do in spirit.

  • I won't only shut the door, I will chase him with a stick!

  • lol Stef-4:40, every Thai man I've ever met!!! F'ing hilarious.

  • Yep, state "capitalizm" sucks. Free markets are great. The state loots from the producers to give to the moochers. And very often, the "moochers" are kept dependent by the state.

  • so growth and freedom is the enemy?

  • @zeusvalentine no, growth and freedom under a governmental system like those we have to today.

  • God job - interesting bump up on the speed - I like that.
