Return the power to print money to the Treasury "the people" not The Fed "the banks & and there share holders " Watch the beginning of Zeitgist 2 it's a good place to start .power of purse is for congress Not a Super Congress further away from the people.Obama should have veto this and the NDAA

Lady, you just reinforced the phrase, "Dumb blonde". Reread your Constitution, and you will see who was given the power to "coin money". The Fed Reserve is illegal under the US Constitution anyways. But go ahead, print your own money. There are female Bubba's at Club Fed.
I'm sure most of them don't even know the meaning of democracy....print our own money??? Just when you think you've heard it all someone comes along and redefines an idiot!

If you read history, you'll know that when our country was first established there wasn't a federal reserve and there wasn't one set currency in the country. This meant banks and whoever else could print money. Sure, great idea - until you get out of your area. Because there wasn't a federal currency, banks didn't have to accept the printed money of another. This created many problems. So go ahead, print your own money. Just know it won't be worth shit.
i think its funny how everyone is against corporations, yet everyone buys their starbucks, has their iphones, ipads, gap clothing, ect.....its all a joke if you ask me
You can print anything on a piece of paper, but that doesn't make it worth anymore than the value of the paper. Even my 15-year-old daughter, upon watching this video, said, "These people are crazy!!!"
Here's what I'd say to that little girl. I'd say, "Well, there's a great way to make the US dollar worthless. Everyone being able to print their own money...seriously, are you really that dumb, or just insane?" Honestly, could be either-or.
Even her own people are laughing at hr about printing money. This is exactly why the OWS crowd will continue to be seen as a joke. It's also a very good example of how having an education does NOT always make you intelligent....life experiences do.
to all the OWS supporters, you're message would be taken a lot more seriously if you didn't let the dumbest person in the group have the bull horn....
this is not what the occupy movement is about, this girl and all the idiots who are repeating after her need to not protest anymore.
The occupy movement isn't about us wanting to print money, it is about wanting the government to change how the rich continue stay rich (to lower taxes, to lower wages for high established individuals, etc).
This idiot just makes the occupy movement look ludicrous as news officials will just be taking this and reiterating it as the purpose of this movement.
i do believe the real contention here is between sound economics and Keynesian economics. the issue is with how interest rates are managed... Keynesian manipulation of interest rates strive to "simulate" interests rates that one would find if there was a free market on capital and credit. the government has a monopoly on credit. each dollar in circulation represents an amount (plus interest) of labour / effort / productivity (by civilians / chattel) that must must be realised on a future day
Some serious sycophantic Big Bank lovers here. Consider the source. Debt systems never work for long. SO, Nationalize the big banks.. Go figure, that way the "Federal Reserve" will then actually be subject to the rule of law set forth by Congress and our Constitution. Just because some power elites sneaked some corrupt legislation past Congress 100 years ago doesnt mean its holy or immovable. If they can print money... So should we... Case and Point
I understand her concept. However, I wonder if she has considered just how stupid and immature she looks to people capable of criticle thinking. Or the stupid people parroting this immensly stupid idiot. Like giving a precoscious child a mike!
@worthls2 I understand your concept. However, I wonder if you have considered just how stupid and immature you look to people capable of good spelling. Or the stupid idiot misspelling a stupid diss. Like giving a precocious child a youtube account!
@cmundyypng this is what dumb libtards look like.....she's prolly from Cali, not really her fault as the whole state is full of retarded liberals with ideas like this....
@SquirrelFromGradLife I simply stated a fact and you throw a fit, that doesn't make me a troll. I'll put this in language you might be able to understand. Go to Japan or Russia and start trying to buy things with an American dollar, you won't shit other than them starring at you like the fucking inbred retard you are. You are to fucking stupid to understand you just proved yourself wrong. The whole idea is they have printed to much money to have it backed by gold and causes it to be worth less.
@sciontist Become the 1% backstab, pay your employees nothing while they do most the work, be born into money, become the best at a sport and get overpaid for putting da ball into da basket.. Welcome to the 1% where you can buy your representatives through legalized bribes called contributions while the 99% vote but get no representation.
@judahstarguy2 Yeah because anyone who's more successful than you obviously became that way by backstabbing or because they're overpaid.... because you say so. Enjoy living your life full of rage and envy bro.
The chants of 'This is what Democracy Looks like.' is just silly. The voting in of politicians is based on a democracy but we live in a Republic. In other words, A Democracy is 4 rapists and a woman deciding what's consent. A Republic is an armed woman disagreeing.
Here's a great video describing the spectrum of political ideology....
@SquirrelFromGradLife Someone having a different view than you doesn't make them retarded, your ignoring history. The fact is that gold has had value for thousands of years and cultures. You can go just about anywhere in this world and the people will value gold but place no value in the dollar. Now I guess you can continue with your liberal intolerant ways and not accept that others have a different view that might be right.
@itsdonenow quote, "anywhere in this world and the people will value gold but place no value in the dollar.".. which makes you a lying retarded asshole.. you're nothing more than a troll.. I am not going to waste anymore time on some lying bullshit like that..
You have obviously never sat down to think that whole gold backed currency thing through just for a second.
Just the fact tat to back all 8 trillion M3 money in America the entire world production for 57 years have to be bought!LOL..
If this is the same chick from Berkley that I saw on livestream she knows what she's talking about ,but using the peoples mic make anybody sound like a zombie.
Are people deliberately trying to Vote down this video with the Like and Dislike button because of its message to end the Federal Reserve? Grow up people and get educated.
I am perfectly fine with the protesters printing their own money. It is called counterfeiting and is a crime punishable by up to 12 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. That should keep the idiots off the street for awhile. I am not opposed to all government handouts. I am perfectly happy paying for these people and giving them "3 hots and a cot" behind bars.
"The People have the right to print money."? Lenin said that the way he will destroy capitalist society is to debauch the currency. Both Obama and these Kabuki dancers for the old New Leftists (the OWS type groups) are doing just that.
p.s. America is supposed to be a republic, not a democracy, too.
Yup, there you go, these people do NOT want to WORK, they just want a new Mommy and daddy to take care of them for the rest of their life. "print money"? what are they smoking? oh wait everything.. These people are the social lint of the fabric of America
What you just said has got to be the most idiotic thing I have ever heard, at no time did you make any sense, nor where you coherent. We are all now dumber having heard it. I award you No points!
I believe the word that best describes the girl with the megaphone is: "stupid" -- No other word in the English language is quite as succinct and to the point; given the example.
I find it bizarre how much animosity she gets for suggesting that created currency goes directly to the consumers; instead of the current system where it goes directly to the banks in terms of lowered interest.
Money is going to be printed regardless, but most people leaving comments must love the security that Big Brother provides. If the newly minted money went directly to the consumer, the rich would be, relatively, less rich. The rich must quell this idea. Why are you working for them?
Why not? Any money is just a mutually-agreed-upon medium of exchange, be it backed up by gold (whose own intrinsic worth is questionable) or by the (tee-hee) "full faith and credit of the yada-yada-yada." When US dollars become Zimbabwe dollars, if you wanna trade in Chuck E. Cheese tokens, or bottlecaps, or Lucky Strikes, or shiny pebbles or whatever, why not?
She'd be right, though, to say that printing coins (not counterfeiting) is illegal (as was owning gold bullion under FDR).
@Aeschylus She is absolutely NOT right in any way shape or form. In fact she in contradicting her self but to stupid to realize it.
You do know that the only thing backing any currency is trust? Right. You do know that. The only thing backing money is trust. I trust people will take my money as legal tender. I trust my money have value. I trust the government will protect my interest against market forces out to destroy the value of my money in order to make money.
@Aeschylus Since I know from experience that I can barely trust my government, and history tells my that you and everyone else is not to be trusted with my money or for that matter any other peoples money, then the trust supporting money is actually paper thin! Right. As long as we have The Constitution and America is a sovereign state then the trust of the American people will be behind our currency.
If you would just have people print money, what would support those money? anything..?
@Aeschylus She is in fact saying, in order to create financial stability we have to create the most unstable financial system ever where there is no control by the people and for the people and we have nothing to trust.Do you think she will back and guarantee 8 trillion dollars in "Little Miss Blondy Bills" is that really it. Is that the golden solution to financial stability? huh.What is the plan exactly because all I see is people saying stupid and dangerous stuff the makes absolutely no sense
dear cmundyy....... please stop turning youtube into fox news. great job taking a snippet of a talk and putting it out of context. There's a FULL VERSION of this video where this chick clearly explains her aversion to private entities such as the FED printing money. But of course that has like 35 views. And great job all you lobotomized morons, for taking her literally. Oooohhh....she said PRINT MONEY...BLeeeuughhh (drOOooL)
I like how you Alabama geniuses learned in 7th grade about the difference between a Republic and a Democracy. Unfortunately, when you dropped out two years later you missed the part about PACs and lobbyists. We have neither a Republic nor a Democracy. We have a system where the rich and the rich corporations have all the power to protect and preserve their ways.
@bradyapplication wager=gamble...and no there's not competing currencies in a single market..
I can tell you what happens in a market with competing currencies. It will go towards a natural monopoly where the holders of one currency will do all in their power to destroy any other currency. It really do not make any sense at all creating that kind of volatile market in order to have financial stability. The financial crisis were in did NOT happen because of monetary policy but rather deregulation
!END THE FED! Her message is clear and and purely Constitutional... Democracy exists in a true Republic but is prevented from dominating policy or law making. Rule of Law has been ignored and now there is finally a unified call by the people for Liberty
@vexre Actually your understanding of The Constitution is a fucking joke and what she is saying is as fucking unconstitutional as can be. Article One,section 8 of The Constitution clearly state that only Congress shall have the power to coin money!meaning that only Congress shall have the power to legislate on money and how the American monetary system is constructed.
Congress made The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 which legislates The Federal Reserve Banks to be under the control of the Treasury
God this is embarrassing. These people want to set up a government? In no time they would be ruled by a despot. Just shows that the universities are not teaching but instead indoctrinating young people. They probably wonder why we don't just use water in our cars instead of gas.
Zombies. No one has a mind of their own. No one seems to be able to think for themselves. That's what makes this scary. The right to print money??????? Do they understand how disasterous that would be to the economy. OH WAIT, here's an idea!!!!! Let's replace all of our currency with Monopoly money. I can't wait. Our new Constitution can be the rules to the game.
@SquirrelFromGradLife With the Fed having a monopoly on monetary policy, it has power over all of us and we don't have any recourse. They allow the big banks like Bofa move derivatives from Merrill Lynch to its FDIC portion. They have no oversight by the US government and are in bed with Goldman Sachs and big banks who are too big too fail.
@lekrivo First of all you're WRONG in saying the Fed has monopoly on monetary policy. That utter bullshit and you have obviously never read The Federal Reserve Act nor read anything with actual facts on The Federal Reserve Banks. You just can't make up your own facts, that's called fucking LYING.
Congress have all power to make monetary policy and ONLY Congress. It's in the fucking Constitution, Article One sec. 8 is you retards bothered reading it.
@lekrivo Next Congress have delegated The Treasury to carry out the monetary policy decided on in committee and The Federal Reserve Banks belong under the supervision on The Treasury. That's why 3/4 of the profits made by The Federal Reserve Banks are funneled back into The Treasury. Because you're probably semi literate and most likely a functional retard like Bush you come up with that shit.
You mentioned derivatives and there's the problem!Deregulation of derivatives!
@lekrivo I really do not begin to comprehend how you can begin to blame the Fed for the financial disaster.
Everyone should know that the huge losses that killed of Lehman, Bear Sterns etc and made AIG go belly up com directly from DERIVATIVES! Nothing else. Excessive trading in credit default swaps etc with absolutely no collateral. The stock market are purely gambling and derivatives are gambling on crack. Deregulation, abolishment of Glass-Steagall Act, allowed banks to gamble with your money
@lekrivo Dont fucking tell me lies and expect I will buy your bullshit about the Fed when I bloody well know what made the mess in the first place. Are you really that stupid that you believe people can't see through your regurgitated bullshit you hear on republican talk radio?
Yeah Goldman Sachs are fucking crooks but they fucking also payed for the deregulation to happen in the first place by throwing money after politicians like republican Phil Gramm. You do know that right?
@lekrivo What fucking happens when you remove all firewalls between you money and the banks money to gamble with? They will fucking gamble with all your money, taking all the profits and you being stuck with all the losses. You even have to bail them out for doing something extremely stupid and dangerous and they come up with the blame somebody else strategy because admitting they gambled with all your money and lost means they're admitting to being criminals and you bought them blaming the fed!
@lekrivo You do know about the deregulation of the Glass-Steagal Act in 1999 which was set in place after the crash in 1929 in the realization that banks can't be trusted to gamble with other peoples money because it makes them take extreme risks that pose systemic risks to the entire economy letting banks gamble with all your money!
And you do know about the deregulation of the derivatives market in CFMA of 2000 completely removed what little regulation there existed regulating derivatives?
@SquirrelFromGradLife Did it ever occur to you that the volatility of gold may have more to do with the volatility of the Dollar? You can't inflate gold, nor invest it into the stock market, nor lend it with interest. Hence, an ounce of gold is worth an ounce of gold. Whereas a dollar could be worth 1/500 a stock of Google or .75 a British pound. Which is the stable one?
@bradyapplication It's an economic fact that the only reason of gold prices so wildly fluctuating is SPECULATION. Only 10% of the annual world production of gold goes to industry! Gold like any other commodity such as oil has become the place to go for SPECULATORS when stocks are being hit hard.
You just constantly LIE, because you can actually lend GOLD with interest if you go to an investment bank.
Since the gold price is so inflated risk of investment becomes DANGEROUSLY HIGH for speculators.
@SquirrelFromGradLife "..you can acually lend GOLD with interest if you go to an investment bank." -- That is great news. I'm going to gather up all my bullions and go over to my neighborhood Goldman Sachs right now.
@bradyapplication You lending any gold to Goldman Sachs would make absolutely no sense at all in the current economic climate with the situation in the Euro, the debt situation in Greece etc. which have and will result in investors moving into commodities like gold. It's called being long and only makes sense if you expect the price to go up less than pari plus interest. Holding any gold at this point would be the smart thing to do, but you're obviously not that smart..
@SquirrelFromGradLife You couldn't be more incorrect. The FED does not work for the Treasury. They are ran for and by its member banks. The banks OWN the FED like a stock holder owns a corporation. The Fed is for these members: 1) the lender of last resort, 2) a regulator. They work for the Treasury by buying their debt, thus gaining influence on them.
P.S. The derivative market provides market liquidity, the Fed takes it away.
@bradyapplication Absolutely BULLSHIT! You have claerly never ever read The Federal Reserve Act of 1913that defines the Fed as we have it today. Just to clarify your complete and utter BULLSHIT let me just illustrate that more than 3/4 of the yearly profit made by The Federal Reserve is funneled directly back to The Treasury. It's a matter of public fucking record and stop your fucking moronic attempts to rewrite history to fit your retarded views.
@SquirrelFromGradLife I claerly have read The Federal Reserve Act of 1913, and I agree not much has changed in the last 98 years since its charter, except: two World Wars, a Great Depression, and the invention of the computer. The FED may kick back its profits to the Gov, but not after pilfering more Treasury Assets in the process (about $200Bil. per year). Please see their balance sheet at federalreserve.gov --PS your tax dollars pay for that website and balance sheet.
@bradyapplication It was a trick question and you failed miserably. Actually the FRA-1913 have been regulated and modernized several times and anyone that have read anything about it would know that. You portray the FRA-1913 as unchanged with your retarded "two World Wars, a Great Depression.." comment, reality is that legislation like Federal Reserve Reform Act of 1977 have regulated The Federal Reserve System since 1913.Every deregulation of the banking system have created a financial disaster
@bradyapplication Dervatives provide liquidity..LOL.. how fucking retarded are you? people like you should not have the freedom of speech nor the right to vote because you have completely disqualifies yourself from sanity with that retarded statement.
Derivatives do not provide any liquidity at all in any way shape or form and if they do anything they drain companies of liquidity because they're are essentially just insurance in the case of credit default swaps. You're a lying piece of shit!
@SquirrelFromGradLife Let's claerify, a Credit Default Swap is 'a derivative' - not an event. If a company wants to pay for something but doesn't have the money to do so, they can trade risk for capital. The credit default swap is the trade vehicle. It provides the capital, it creates market liquidity.
@bradyapplication You actually do not get the construction of a credit default swap and why it's pure financial insurance. You do know that financial insurance is highly regulated right and why that is, and why financial insurance like CDS are in fact illegal. Let's hope so.
A credit default swap is by definition financial insurance where the risk of losing liquidity from the original security is traded to the buyer resulting in LESS liquidity for the seller including the default premium.
I (I) think (think) you (you) are (are) a (a) Hottie (hottie) but (but) you (you) are (are) dumber (dumber) than (than) a (a) sack (sack) of (of) hammers (hammers)
She is fucking retarded, she is talking about the need to educate yourself and obviously she has not even began to do so nor has she ever read any books on economics, philosophy or democracy because she would not begin to say that bullshit about "where the people have the right to print money". What a bunch of bullshit. The only thing supporting the value of money is trust and I do not have any reason to trust "the people" to act responsibly. There is nothing wrong with having a central bank!
You idiots are missing her point. The Federal Reserve has a monopoly on cash, how well is that working right now? She speaks the truth, and you guys are too stupid to understand that she doesn't mean to literally print new money. No, end the feds monopoly on currency and allow for other currencies (i.e. gold). This would hold the FED accountable.
She is one of the few smart people out there saying anything right now.
@bradyapplication No the US government through the Treasury have monopoly on monetary policy which includes "printing money". That right have been delegated to The Federal Reserve Bank. There's nothing wrong with that and in fact it is the exact same structure as having a central bank. Although I am for a central bank instead of having the Federal Reserve it is essentially the same structure and process.Your bullshit about other currencies like gold are crazy because gold price is speculative!
@bradyapplication please stop calling others idiots just because we do not agree with some crazy ideas that's actually contradicting what you postulating. Like that crap you wrote about a gold currency. You have an illusion about financial stability right? Well the price of gold is highly elastic and purely driven by speculation and a gold currency would inflate the gold price even more. What happens to anything commodity that's over inflated like the dot com stocks or house prices? They crash!
@bradyapplication So in your head a gold currency makes sense but in reality it's an economic nightmare just waiting to happen unlike anything we have ever seen. What happened to the over inflated stock prices in 1929? The dot com stock in 1999/2000? or housing prices recently? They crash! The gold price is already over inflated and what happens if you inflate it even more? It will crash making your "currency" worthless. See you really have not thought that one through at all... right..
Fucking STUPID! People printing money? Really? Just how fucking stupid is this girl? A democracy? Do you even understand what a democracy is you nit wit?
Wait? I have a great printer! I'm gonna print up 2000 units and go buy a new TV. Tomorrow I'll print up some more and buy a car.
I thought the repeating was because there was no bullhorns allowed? What is it now? It's called indoctrination technique. CLONES AND DRONES!
Somehow this scholar has conflated "we need a democracy...where the people have the right to print money" with public accountability of the Federal Reserve. Our democracy put in place the leaders which established and regulate this institution. Although her intent seems laudable, the expression of that desire is at best bewildering and at a baselne incoherent.
She is calling for the overhaul of a private secretive organization, The Fededral Reserve, from having unlimited power to print money without any oversight behind closed doors. .
@lekrivo Actually The Federal Reserve is NOT a secretive organization nor does it have an unlimited power to print money without any oversight. You couldn't actually be more wrong. Th Federal Reserve acts on behalf of the US Treasury and nothing else, and they do in fact have full oversight and all the power. Because you can't sit in on the meeting doesn't mean it's a secretive organisation because you can't do that in any central bank at all.
What should be overhauled is the derivatives market!
OK, so i hope that [people that watch this video realize that if we all could print our own money at home that the dollar (weak already), would become even weaker, the world economy would crash even farther, leading to possible anarchy and the fall of civilization!
Sadly, those in the crowd who disagree with her probably do so not because her idea is absurd, but because she still wants to be a slave to money. I have no doubt that many in that audience want to abolish currency, period. They feel that education, food, housing, Louis Vuitton purses, all of it, should be free and a right. We should all just contribute to the betterment of all and share all.
What lunatics. And what is with this parroting of the person with a bullhorn or microphone? Creepy.
Wow...this is so genius... That will solve ALL of our problems...if we the people can print our own money, then nobody will be poor anymore, it will end world hunger, and everyone will be able to afford a mansion, and nobody will ever have to work again!
What a dumb shit! Wow, does she even know what happens when people are given free reign to print money? The whole freaking country would fall apart within a span of a day!! What is more disturbing is that there are people actually chanting along.

If you read history, you'll know that when our country was first established there wasn't a federal reserve and there wasn't one set currency in the country. This meant banks and whoever else could print money. Sure, great idea - until you get out of your area. Because there wasn't a federal currency, banks didn't have to accept the printed money of another. This created many problems. So go ahead, print your own money. Just know it won't be worth shit.

This idiot just makes the occupy movement look ludicrous as news officials will just be taking this and reiterating it as the purpose of this movement.

i do believe the real contention here is between sound economics and Keynesian economics. the issue is with how interest rates are managed... Keynesian manipulation of interest rates strive to "simulate" interests rates that one would find if there was a free market on capital and credit. the government has a monopoly on credit. each dollar in circulation represents an amount (plus interest) of labour / effort / productivity (by civilians / chattel) that must must be realised on a future day

@SquirrelFromGradLife Let's claerify, a Credit Default Swap is 'a derivative' - not an event.

It provides the capital, it creates market liquidity.

A credit default swap is by definition financial insurance where the risk of losing liquidity from the original security is traded to the buyer resulting in LESS liquidity for the seller including the default premium.

Sadly, those in the crowd who disagree with her probably do so not because her idea is absurd, but because she still wants to be a slave to money. I have no doubt that many in that audience want to abolish currency, period. They feel that education, food, housing, Louis Vuitton purses, all of it, should be free and a right. We should all just contribute to the betterment of all and share all.
What lunatics. And what is with this parroting of the person with a bullhorn or microphone? Creepy.
