On the Edge with Max Keiser - 20 February 2010 - (2/3)

[Tasadaru]

The problem with Reagan is that he dropped taxes but increased spending. Robert Kiyosaki said that he tripled the national debt. Now, that is not conservative but instead neoconservative; borrowing money on the credit card to fund undeclared wars. Anyone who is tired of the liberals and neoconservatives should youtube Tom Woods. He will get you squared away.

Common Law guys get back to reality fuck govt and stock markets, banks, bullshit. Research, freeman on the land, be free and have plenty for all like it was planned, long before these cock head so-called wanker elite thought they were god. Common Law - Freeman on the land...

[DeathNeedsTime]

Why are people coming unglued in their comments? The professor is simply giving a recount of history and he's absolutely right. It was only after man settled in villages and started farming the land that the idea of "MY OX," "MY LAND," MY GRAIN," "MY HOUSE," "MY WIFE," etc. came into being. Patriarchy, territoriality, war, and other negative, ego-based behavior of civ came into being with the onset of agrarian society. That's a simple fact, and it's not a terribly difficult concept to grasp.

Big fan of Max's show, but he's letting his politics show a little bit too much lately. stick to facts Max. otherwise... awesome show.

none of these economoSHITS will address teh zero interest bonds that were floated by the colonies : COLONIAL SCRIP and temperory chartered companies ..

in the information age the currency that is IP should be held in collective and scrip flaoted to companies that want to take advantage of the need of the collective ..

this economoSHIT head has apparently gone through history but has not addressed the colonial scrip and the tally system...

"Tax the rich, feed the poor. Till there are no rich no more." Ten Years After

Then what? Who will feed the poor? The all knowing socialist power structure? Central planners? That has worked out so well in the past (see China, USSR, etc...)

[bluetickrunner]

howabot tarrif the shit ot of american companies that have sent there factories offshore with the blessing of our govt take that money and feed the unemployed which are poor stop giving special interest money to suit our govt for bullshit and we will wait for the companies to come back if not let people start there own buisnesses without all the bullshit regulation and paracidic behavior of the beurocrats and get the people back to work, free of govt bullshit!!

[prescottbill]

America (through the reserve currency status of our fiat money, "the dollar") is conning the rest of the world to give us their goods and labor for "free". The con will end when the reserve status of the dollar ends. Then America will have to go to work again (since it will end in a World War, you may be making drones or bombs). After a nice profitable WW, the banksters will set up some world government scam to "insure the peace" and line their pockets some more.

Source of the decline in living standards? It started with the Tax cuts for the richest Americans begun under RONALD REAGAN. Thank the great lying fraudster Ronald Reagan for starting this downward slope. And all the while Reagan masqueraded as a fighter for the average American. It was one big con job and too many people swallowed the Reagan BS hook, line and sinker.

That was the biggest piece of garbage I have heard in a long time. Come on Keiser... I know you are a lefty but I still like you... just keep the propaganda out. I hear enough of that on major news organizations.
