Universal Serfdom with G. Edward Griffin 1/2

[1977Melville]

Central Planning has worked so well : (

[EYEMHEMPSTER]

monopoly capitalist or corporate capitalist , sorry still capitalism , still sucks , ,Its had its time, there might even was a time when it made some sense , we need new idea,s that incorporate 2100 technology which none of the ISM,S out there seem to take in to account ..



[daemonnice]

@EYEMHEMPSTER

This is a point I have been making. There is a need for a federation to unite people but it needs to be controlled by the people for the people. Direct democracy utilizing 2100 tech while fraught with problems is the only way to go.Without some form of regulation markets will always be ruled by greed. Greed is not the best emotion to build a society on. See modern consumerism and black friday hysteria as proof. Going back is not going forward.

[Aurinkohirvi]

Err...no, Michael Moore didn't say that you shouldn't quit FED. At least not in that interview where he said "capitalism is the problem."

What USA has today, is FASCIST CORPORATISM where the monopolymen own the politicians and run the government.

Even "true capitalism" still would accumulate wealth to hands of few. So it doesn't solve the small rich elite big poor masses issue. Socialism is what answers to that question.

[katydig]

Capital is material that is owned by any individual. Capitalism is ownership in the hands of individuals as opposed to the state. It's not the same as "dog eat dog", it actually is "opportunity for everyone". State ownership of everything ends up in arbitrary decision of who wins and who looses.

Don't dis Occupy Wall Street - these people are waking up. Most are not asking for more government, most just want to reclaim government from the corporations. Check out Garret LoPorto at Occupy Boston.

[VerseInfinitum]

Before 1913, free market capitalism flourished. Many Mom and Pop shops clustered all over Main Street. Competition was tough but everyone had a real opportunity to prosper. Today corporate oligarchies superseded the free market and they answer only to investors. We now live in a land of opportunists, not opportunity. Capitalism isn't the suspect, it became the victim.

[summondadrummin]

Gentleman with all due respect. I find your collectivist reasoning hopelessly convoluted. If we can stick to the absurdity of private corporations issuing the publics currency as interest bearing debts we might actually get something done.Thanks

[calico2229]

And, USA Politicians determined to destroy their own nation to form the NAU-SPP (as part of the GLOBAL GOVERNMENT of Abolishing Sovereign nations and setting them up in blocs instead) -and betray their own citizens and force us to pay for ILLEGAL ALIENS.

It is the LEGAL Citizens of the USA who are "IN THE SHADOWS!" I just wish the American Citizens hadn't been so Apathetic...Look where we are now...It's disgusting!

And also don't ever forget the devious and evil MSM's role in all this!

[calico2229]

These ILLEGAL ALIEN Mothers knew precisely what they were doing when they came over here to deposit their babies. They knew that between themselves and their babies, they would be getting FREE births, WIC, food stamps, housing, Legal-Language services, FREE school (including Free Breakfasts-lunches) and now the DREAM ACT...These politicians refuse to end BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP, they Refuse to secure our borders, they refuse to enforce our immigration laws and ...con

[calico2229]

They're right & because our politicians have been bought out by the businesses (who also support ILLEGAL ALIENS) in California, Gov Brown recently signed the DREAM Act and Brown also just recently passed a bill, allowing ILLEGAL ALIENS and their students, Financial Aide.

I frequently hear, it's NOT the childrens' faults of ILLEAL ALIENS...This is FRAUD! The ILLEGAL ALIEN Mothers knew full well what they were doing when they DELIBERATELY came across the borders to drop their babies. cont..

[metareal1]

this should have 10 million hits really....this guy is saying that occupy.wall street has been circumvented by corrupt insiders ...these innocent demos are not aware that their efforts are to no avail...because their anger is being hi jacked & used by the sinister elite that have taken control of the Occupy Wall street effort ...without these brave people knowing it ...they are falling into a trap by getting the left hand to occupy the right ...each are gov.t and banksters to in the end enslave!

[StratusBlue]

So Griffin's solution to regulators being corrupt in service to corrupt politicians is getting rid of all regulators.

The cure for corruption is not to get rid of law.

[therunningmanlives]

its true, the people have much more awakening to do. HOWEVER, END THE FED, 9/11 Truth and the BIRTH CERTIFICATE is a GREAT START!

if you're just starting to realize that something is REALLY ROTTEN, you need to

1. get armed!

2. look up JORDAN MAXWELL

3. watch RING OF POWER -- her on youtube - for a really in depth START at what is really going on, and HOW LONG this has been going on

GOD BLESS ALL GOOD PEOPLE!

[Baldwynmayhem]

Why don't we just all wake up and treat other right baseline, just a thought. Everyone can argue about Capitalism, Communism or any other ideology, but really let's face it, it's humanity, as Alex And G Edward have basically admitted "it ain't perfect but it's better than collectivism", bottom line is all this will be repeated some point in the future, even if we do remove the Banking Cartel. There needs to be a total change in human thinking or condition i'm afraid, before we truly move forward

[dizzybenny]

sometimes you need to go backwards to go forward.

[alpidistra]

How can people say that they are against "government regulation" and at the same time bemoan the repeal of the Glass-Steagal Act? This seems to be a contradiction. Can anybody care to clarify this? Is anybody really against government health and hygiene regulations on consumable goods? Upton Sinclair's book "The Jungle" showed us what was involved in the meet packing industry.

[graceexplosion]

Seriously, I have questions on Amway. Is Amway part of the NWO and getting wealthy through fascism?? Seriously, would someone do a show on that??

[graceexplosion]

Would you please link later tapes to newer tapes?? I get subscriptions, then there's no link to the earlier tapes -- nd it's a hassle. Sometimes I can't find the first tapes. Found this one only cuz you liked it on the channel page. I couldn't even find this tape doing a search for it. (Most subscriptions are last in the series -- then I can't find the earlier ones sometimes. I want to watch the whole series in sequential order. Thanks.)

Ahaha, I found Talltommy's comment.

[TonyUnplugged]

The government regulators have been captued. DeepCapture com explains how the stock market is a rigged game.

[jtom94]

if Alex were alive in during the revolution he would say things like..."these 'founding fathers' are all British agents" or "these are all masons, don't trust them." Alex gets off on dismissing things and then saying I'm above these occupy wall street protests. They're all dumb and I know the truth. Get over yourself Alex.

[g2000m]

@jtom94 It's all about Alex's bank account...and his over inflated ego.

[takforalt]

Guys, help me out here: yes, to what alex and GF said about capitalism but is it not same with socialism? In capitalism we have keep businesses from controlling government "too much" (fascism) and in socialism we have to keep the government from controlling businesses "too much" (communism). In the middle both systems seem to mirror images of each other. Either extreme is no good for the populace. It begs the question: Is the answer in the middle? Unbridled capitalism=carpet baggers,

[econogate]

Capitalism works. It works for reasons that don't appear in the

analyses of Marx or in the statistics of economists. It works clumsily,

awkwardly, sometimes brilliantly, and sometimes savagely.

[econogate]

Our civilization is under attack. But many of us don't want to

defend it. Why? There's a void in our sense of meaning. We've been

told that the "Western system" is one in which the rich stoke artificial

needs to suck money, blood, and spirit from the rest of us.

[yuppyguitar1]

Griffin is the man. Of all the conspiracy exposers this guy is the best. Nothing but pointed facts stated calmly and intelligently. Alex should learn a lesson from this guy. I still listen to Alex but he loses a lot of credibility with his poor delivery and constant exaggeration.

[TroySmithforD]

all alllll so true..and it takes time to really get into the nuances of the economic problem, WHICH is America's problem..not enough time and effort is put into researching the facts and details from all angles and coming to a coherent conclusion.and it's easy for the press to dismiss the protestors because it cannot be articulated into a soundbite for the report they need to make on the nightly news in a two minute clip. so sad..so little patience most have...

[pCriistopher]

Didn't Marx start socialism because he was afraid that the emerging middle class who overtook the elites would gain power and exploit the working class?

[christalbum]

@pCriistopher

No.

[StefanJohanssonX]

Alex wants to lead the "revolution" because it will create views to his "media empire". He should be happy that people is on the streets! But no, instead he makes up storys about communists etc because he knows that word scares Americans.

[augustandjune]

A thought has occurred to me: Yes, most of the people at these protests understand part of the problem, but remember Mark Penn's comment on "Hardball" about President Obama needing something big to win back the people? Well, I have read articles today on Obama supporting the anti-Wall Street rallies. If he truly were for reform, why wouldn't be for auditing the Federal Reserve? It certainly looks like he's using this movement to boost his popularity, deflecting his own poor decisions.

[hablerz]

G Edward Griffin is the dogs bollocks , he is the man. Kudos to him in large amounts.

[olga2415]

TALK IS CHEAP! WHAT'S THE SOLUTION? NO ONE IS TELLING YOU WHAT THE SOLUTION IS! THE SOLUTION IS: It's going to take ALL OF US ACTING TOGETHER to end the fed. QUIT FEEDING THE BEAST with voluntary income tax payments! They are using all this money against us all. !!! Wake the hell up!!!!! SOLUTION: QUIT FEEDING THE BEAST!

[olga2415]

Millions of Americans KNOW what the problem is. The fed. reserve. What the people at occupy wall street should be yelling for the whole world to hear is NOT "end the fed" BUT QUIT PAYING IT MONEY YOU DON'T OWE IT! It uses the unlawful income tax YOU VOLUNTEER to pay it, AGAINST YOU! QUIT FEEDING THE BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jnixongo00]

lol is alex high he kills me with the annalogies

[JFAINTER88]

@jnixongo00 lol that was the shittiest analogy ive heard in a while but it made me laugh.

[jnixongo00]

@JFAINTER88 it really was but thats alex you gotta lov em... hes gotta be on weed..lmao im on weed and I understood him..lol

[jbyeats]

The coalition of Corporatism & Government is COLLECTIVISM ??? Get Real --- CORPORATISM joining with GOVERNMENT is FASCISM .

So America is a COMMUNIST SOCIETY - Griffin says --- Jesus - I give up.

Webster Dictionary Definition :

CAPITALIST : IS A PERSON WITH EXTENSIVE CAPITAL ESPECIALLY

EMPLOYED IN BUSINESS .

CAPITALISM : SYSTEM WHERE THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION ARE IN

LARGE MEASURE PRIVATELY OWNED & DIRECTED.

Where is this revisionist crap going ??? jb

in 1776, USA did not killed the British Empire, in War of 1812 USA did not killed the British Empire. The British Empire is still Alive.

Don't forget about British Empire Bankers, they gonna monopolize your "Free Market".

[paleopeneyes]

someone should tell alex that we never actually went to the moon.

[rovingdesertfox]

@paleopeneyes where's your proof? We went there, but then goofed around and tried to embelish the experience and made a fake movie product that made it look as if we didn't actually go.

[alphabeets]

The fed was supposed to preserve the value of the dollar. Instead, the dollar has lost about 98% of it's value. Hmmmm. The fed has obviously failed to do the job.

[ngonea]

@alphabeets = CON-GRESS is the one that FAILED to do the job, they swore and OATH to uphold the Constitution, and it is CON-GRESS that sold out their responsibility in 1913 to the PRIVATE FEDERAL RESERVE, who did not swear an oath to uphole the Constitution. So who are the real traitors?

[pretorious700]

@alphabeets more like 99%, but yeah, you are 100% correct.

[TEEWEE01]

if you go back in time resume what was taking place what about the decisions that lead to this point? so is that ideology going to buy sixty seventy years before the same crap happens again? greed corruption? we are change needs tro start with being satisfied with the basic nessesities and not a yaht and mansion and five or six vacation homes over the globe. The american dream was to own your own home and live in it when did that change?

[TEEWEE01]

@TEEWEE01 add to previous:: Being satisfied with that concept and helping others in your community and country to obtain that goal. We are a greedy self absorbed nation and until those things change no matter what is purposed for the well being of this country all is doomed to fail.

[Stralorv]

Open your eyes Alex. capitalism and Communism are just a faze to this situation. Rockefeller is become rich in capitalism and then with that money he bought politicians. This systems are obsolete. I sincerely hope that we will manage to beat the scum. but this is just a repetition of history and it will be repeated again, they will return. we must stop this repetition. peter Joseph is right, we need a new system. moneyless.

[JG1635]

Alex scores a point for finally shutting his yapper some to let his guest speak.. but loses a point for his terrible analogy. LOL

I think near the end of his attempt at a fitting analogy even alex was thinking to himself.. "goddamn i lost track of what the fuck i was saying, this isnt coming out right" while Griffin is thinking to himself, what the hell is he babbling on about??

Anyway.. great interview, Griffin is a smart man and a class act.

Wow what a silly comment. G Edward Griffen is a fantastic researcher and author, a true gentleman, and excellent well-educated person sharing his knowledge.

Many of us aspire to be the type of person this man is.

[pancholordofthecouch]

Wall Street IS the Fed. The same people work in both places. STOP trying to muddy the waters!

[mhaneline]

@pancholordofthecouch Dude, there are something like 30,000 corporations represented on wall street.

The issue is the federal reserve. Concentrate your efforts on what's important please.

[lulu8332]

@pancholordofthecouch we all know that but i think it`s way smarter to identify the FED and the big 6 banks ass the enemy in ppl mind i do support ocopy wall street atleast they do something.i live in a country were we have alot of the things some of the ppl on wall street are calling for we( low income part in our country) pay over 85%tax too the state but the rich get ALOT of tax benefits our oil gets handed out to a shipping compani and we get nothing for it..our healtcare sucks u want that?

[satvistayou]

@thealexjoneschannel

Right NOW WEARECHANGE has validated the MOVEMENT on OCCUPY WALL ST.

IF ALEX JONES comes he'll drop a huge turd in the punch bowl, and detract from the real MEAT AND POTATOES of the issue.

DON'T LET ALEX COOPT OCCUPY WALL ST.

[mikespulligan]

@pulseblixx - Don't worry, he already knows, as most of us do, that the OWS protest is a sham. Calling for Communism and the end of Capitalism is an obvious mistake often made by the young and idealistic, who have no real life experience and have not even spent any time working a real job or paying any taxes. I, or Alex Jones, or anyone else with half a brain, understands that the issues are far more complex than the average college graduate is equipped to understand.

[Alexia8099]

Watch,"The Grand Design". G.Edward Griffin.

[mrscambuster1001]

G Edward Griffen makes an excellent point. It does not stop with End the Fed and return endless coinage back to the Treasury (which are mega bankers too - like tiny Tim Geithner).

It also means re-establishing a gold standard FIXED proportional to the population to provide a stable currency that CANNOT be printing into oblivion. This will stop the govt from operating with fiat money,

Look up Bill Still -he discusses this idea of fixed proportional relation to currency volume and population

[TheEmericanDream]

@mrscambuster1001 You mention Bill Still, yet he has come out against Ron Paul and anyone else who supports the gold standard by saying that they've correctly identified the problem but have the wrong idea about solution, He says that money must be valuless and the government must never borrow money. I've been trying to figure this out for a while now, in theory it works to limit the currency proportional to the population, but I think that's easier said than done and gold is just as corruptable

[mrscambuster1001]

@TheEmericanDream

Still has been on Alex Jones to explain his position. Have a look at them. Full or partial or mixed gold and silver or yet another valuable entity (not valueless -- even the Kings sticks were the official currency to pay taxes) is suitable as long as NO one, Not even the US Treasury can manipulate the value.

That seems to be G Edwards point in this two part series.

Whatever the fixed rate its better than endless paper supply that we all have now for a "currency"

[WARisPEACE30]

@mrscambuster1001

totally agree love bill still, hes absolutely correct and has a great historical understanding of currency

[vanfanel150]

@mrscambuster1001 Who has the gold?

[mrscambuster1001]

@vanfanel150

Probably the global elite have already cornered much of the gold market, so it makes sense to consider an alternative standard for the USD...something that cant be manipulated to create booms and busts a la the business cycle -- which again is artificial

[MustacheVerra]

@mrscambuster1001 But Bill doesn't believe going back to the gold standard is a good idea.

[mrscambuster1001]

@MustacheVerra

Not likely that Dr. Ron Paul would institute a 100% gold backed currency off the bat, or a system to allow for its manipulation. First things first, get Dr. Ron Paul elected and many exper ts who are not corrupt and part of the global elite can propose various programs for implementation.

There is room to work out the fine print. The main thing is to End the Fed and not let the value of the dollar be manipulated by the Treasury either.

[mrscambuster1001]

@pulseblixx

Stupid troll who knows nothing about Alex Jones or ANY of his extremely qualified guests. Please STFU propaganda troll.

People watch this information the system does NOT want you to know!

Decide for yourself!

[timmit59]

@bvonmoss I thinks it's more likely the bankers had the text of the bible changed!

[bvonmoss]

What people are longing for is the kingdom of God. Political systems cannot bring back paradise. The only way is through the knowledge of salvation through the blood of Jesus. God will judge all the systems against the truth of God in the end. Even Christian fellowship is not easy. In Jesus' day there were many kinds of sinners. Some were tax collectors, but that was only one kind of sinner. Jesus loved Zacchaeus. Ironic that Jesus said, "put my money on deposit with the bankers" (Mt 25:27)

[201nathan]

@bvonmoss People are people, back when so called christianity ruled the world, the catholic Church, was torturing anfkilling anyone who opposed them. They also took over most of the countries, and kings ended up doing what ever the Pope said. Today its evolution, bankers, corporations and global warming/green planet thats going to inslave the people. This is satans kingdom, and he will rule until god has removed him. Good will never prosper in the is world. Jesus said " don't be of this world"

[pulseblixx]

@thealexjoneschannel is there no end to alex's shamelessness. FIRST,TRYING HIJACK OcCUPY WALL STREET TO THE FED SO HE CAN GET ON HIS BULLHORN AND GET EXPOSURE(no different than VAN JONES ON THE progressive side) but then has on one of GLENN BECK's guests and continues to blame beck for copying him when in fact it's just the opposite. LMAO SHAME ON YOU

[qncsc]

GAME OVER!

the global labor markets were established to enable poor developing world labor to compete with labor that is expensive in high-cost, developed economies. this advent will continue (at an escalating rate) erode the 100-200 year development and progress made in the developed world.

undoing that market will never happen. it should but it won't. it should but it cannot.

the profits to be made from wage-arbitrage were too enticing, enabled by crony capitalism, as mentioned in the video

You will get gid of The Fed, and 50 years later it will be back. The problem here is the FedGov and the Monopoly power of government. You need to end the FedGov, not just the Fed. get rid of the monolithic nation state.

[hablerz]

@anwas777 Thats a good point , people have been fighting central banking for 400 years. It has to be outlawed in crystal clarity in the constitution.

[stuart2311]

How can you talk about moving forward without discussing Peak Oil and Post Oil living ? Its what all the Austerity measures and the economic slowdown is conditioning us for . Reduction of Consumption . Acceptable sustainability . OCCUPY is the revolution . Its not a right or left issue . Its a 'People and the Planet' issue and its still in its infancy .

OCCUPY will grow and grow and it will usher in a new economic dawn with values greater than the system we now have .

OCCUPY is for everyone .

[valhala56]

@stuart2311 Agree,however most people on AJ channel think that Peak Oil is NWO lies. They don't believe it. AJ doesn't believe it. We have a tough nut to crack trying to explain to people the fundamental cause of collapse-Peak Oil. and trust me you and I will get all kinds of replies denying Peak Oil.

[DamnationBattalion]

[individualnliberty]

@talltommy46 Elaborate. How is he aligned with socialists?

[valhala56]

@talltommy46 it's obvious, AJ is a secret Communist.

[MarkQuinn2k7]

@talltommy46 I haven't heard anything in this video which even remotely suggests Alex is aligning with the socialists. Quite the opposite, in fact. Maybe the lines have been so blurred that the message is unclear. I don't know.

[talltommy46]

@MarkQuinn2k7 I have invested significant effort into Alex Jones in my Area.. He better EXPLAIN HIMSELF!

Because I do have a character fault, I am ONE SERIOUSLY VINDICTIVE MOTHERFUCKER!

Understand???

[MarkQuinn2k7]

@talltommy46 >>>Understand???<<<

No, not really. I still don't see where Alex has aligned himself with the socialists here. Maybe you're seeing something I'm not.

[talltommy46]

@MarkQuinn2k7 I've been sitting here gettin my stuff ready fro deer hunting, and watching the whole flow of this! I haven't seen anything from Ron Paul supporters in it.. Not even from AJ's own reporter, right here on AJ's own channel.. As a point of fact, I have seen LIES, like "No communists here" when there is a whole LINE OF VIDEOS, interviewing communist activists.. But, "No communists" huh?? Looking to me like AJ is being Absorbed by the Lefties.. This make him my enemy, not by my choice!
