[ourearthhome]

The housing bubble was a land speculation bubble since buildings and other improvements do not go up in value. Land speculation which is the entire reason and motivation for all real estate investment for profit has been a feature of American economic history from the beginning. Land speculation is a game of getting something for nothing since land value is created by the community of all people, by society and not by individual owners of particular pieces of land or natural resources.

2:55 Actually that's when you sell, moron.

[PissedFechtmeister]

Nice music choice! Our politicians need to be put in a zoo.

[8peregrint8]

[adrastea99]

Job loss after Bush was 5.2 million, and it's at 8.2 million now according to world bank

It is obvious that the economy is only going to get worse

National debt is up by four trillion dollars since Bush administration stepped down, enough to buy a small country

[hilololomoa]

[woutvsas]

[butaicho]

You're an idiot. you dont see the big picture. BOTH SIDES are in on the scam. Do your research. Dont be so blind like the rest of the sheeple out there. Are you kidding me? Ask anyone that's not asleep. They've been planning this since 1913. Y'know what?Go back to sleep.

[flangelet]

LOL

0:04 - "Our banks are strong"... wtf?

Today (2009Jul02) Bl**mberg news reports FDIC closing down & absorbing the finances of COLLAPSING american 2nd tier banks, small local banks, is ACCELERATING!

G**gle it!

How many banks in the usa have suffered runs, 'electronic runs' & deposit failures due to the growing failures of COMMERICAL REAL-ESTATE & CONSTRUCTION LOANS. lol

Hilarious! usa is circling the pan AGAIN!

"So soon? Oh, just throw another $4trillion on the fire!"

[flangelet]

LOL

The usa is collapsing AGAIN!

Who next? An industry bailout? Airlines? Port Authorities?

Noope... California is worth a lot of electoral college VOTES (55) ... erm, I mean "is strategically IMPORTANT to the state of the union and to america's economic wellbeing"... so Osbama will ride to the rescue!

LOL usa cuts off nose to spite face, shoves nose where sun don't shine & asks China for new nose while tapping Saudis for loose change for beer!

This global comedy gets better by the day!

[sugarpuddin88]

Bernanke, Geithner, Rubens, Summers, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan & the Federal Reserve Bank know exactly what they are doing by collapsing the US Dollar:

The purpose of this financial crisis is to take down the U.S. dollar as the stable datum of planetary finance and, in the midst of the resulting confusion, put in its place a Global Monetary Authority [GMA - run directly by international bankers freed of any government control] -a planetary financial control organization" - Bruce Wiseman

[sugarpuddin88]

The FED & Treasury are the purveyors of US T Bonds. But for many years, big banks like JP Morgan & Goldman Sachs have sold T Bonds that they had no authority to sell; which is essentially counterfeiting those bonds: Selling short Bonds that dont even exist

The FCC had all records on criminals like Paulson, Geithner, Ruben, Summers & others engaging in that illegal activity. But all the records of those illegal trades were destroyed when WTC 7 was brought down by thermite on 9/11!

[alkelliher]

It's all been lies and deception all along and speedreading bills into law , it makes me so sick and it makes many Americans sick

[sugarpuddin88]

Currently, the world is forming ad-hoc currency baskets for trade in order to get away from the contamination, which is the US dollar, (google: Shanghai Organizational Coop); & setting up for a new World Order Currency

Meanwhile, the USA has Stockholm Syndrome, where the terrorized population through Obama actually supports their terrorist: Last week Obama is actually giving more power to their captors, the Federal Reserve Bank, rather than prosecuting them

[mikevid3124]

Why did you ruin this with the music???? Repost without the music.

[norfair18]

might do you some good to check my profile.

[gitterfritter]

Not only did that administration murder over 100,000 Iraqis, torture an unknown number of innocent people, spy on millions of citizens ... but they also sunk the fucking economy. Why the fuck aren't any of these people being prosecuted and sent to fucking jail?!

[sugarpuddin88]

Just face it: Americans love to bend over & take it like a little yatch!

Meanwhile, my Norwegian Kroners are going ballistic - Thank god I rolled all my IRAs, 401s & annuities into foreign currency IRAs

Now I'm making a killing!

The worse America does, the more money I make!

Go America Go!

[flangelet]

I agree...

I was telling dirty yanks to dump their dollars into foreign currencies last year (2008) &the ars*holes just threw pro-usa bs.

Now the Euro is rising, even the Asian currencies & ruble (FFS!) is rising against the dollar & "where she stops, nobody knows"... but it'll be lower than here, I'm guessing!

Yanks are just so parochial! It's endemic.

"What? The american american peasants have no bread? Let them eat one another!"

My clients' monies are pointed at China.

What do I care!

[diah4]

WOW.

[OneManAndHisFiction]

The Fundamentals of our Economy are strong - the fundamental physics of it! ...and according to the fundamental physics, the UNITED STATES Corp. economy is screwed.

They're all liars. They are proven liars working for the US Federal Government that are just distracting its subjects - the citizens of the United States - from the great transfer of wealth that is taking place right now.

The mainstream media are just accomplices to this through corporate ownership.

[rjlawera]

We're fucking ourselves in the ass?

[dmix09]

we are being ass raped!! ..hope you fags enjoy

[arville2020]

With the US currently owing China close to $800 billion dollars and growing, I would like to say to Americans :

GET READY TO GREET YOUR NEW CHINESE MASTERS BITCHESSSS!!!!!!!

U.S.A.P.C. - United States of America Property of China

[frEbase1]

this is a great video. forward it to everyone you know to spread the word!

[joe80dman]

You can't remain a world superpower with a 3rd World economy. That's what a "service based economy" is. A nations' wealth is determined by it's industrial output, which Congress allowed Wall Street to outsource for cheap labor. What will we do? Sell each other insurance policies?

[diehard200]

perfecto.

[AgentMikeScott]

Sick video. The Fed needs to start letting the market determine rates; central planning has never worked. Obama, Bernanke, and Geitner continually undermine the market. Btw I know this song is by The Scorpions, but what's the name of the song?

[56gig]

the government has a lot to show for all of this.

they now own the housing industry

they now own the insurance industry

they now own the car industry

they now own the banking industry

they now own YOU.

[honestlycorrect]

The financial market has evolved into a very complex and difficult to predict beast.

We have to go back to basics:

* Bank should only lend for production, not for speculation.

* Investors should stop speculating and start producing.

* Households should stop borrowing and start saving for the future.

We cannot continue on the same path.

[dazzagazza6969]

These government officials and the Federal Reserve are either;

1) corrupt liars who knew and aided the economic collapse for their own gains or;

2) Stupid and not fit for their roles.

My guess is because many of them have not been sacked/fired they are number 1.

The US government and banking, military, and oil sectors are so closely linked that democracy and freedom do not exist anymore in the USA.

[grrgto]

Interst rates are still low now... same old shit or not applicable?

[therealcaptobvious]

Obama's financial regulation overhaul is going to be more of the same. He's just using it as an excuse for a bigger government.

[joeymackaroni]

0:18 ***THUGS***

that's all I got to say

[Dkouts57]

[nailerfx]

They're all a bunch of TOOLS that need to be delt with.

[hdtwoodsman]

We were on an unsustainable path and destined for destruction. I guess we both agree that these regulations need to be simple and strong. Fine print got us into this mess.

[hdtwoodsman]

Also, if the Ds had any sense they would have called the 1st bailout: Bush's Bailout. People seem to forget this fact.

[hdtwoodsman]

The difference with Frank is his intentions were good: more home ownership. These others just touted a deregulated economy that enabled the rich to get richer.

[Mechanized0]

Sigh.

It is unfortuante that many individuals have accepted the nonsense that the economy was "deregulated," as if this suggests a "laissez-faire" environment. The reality is quite different.

A quick view at the size of the "2008 SEC Guidelines; Rules and Regulations" shows just how over-regulated the financial industry is. It consists of 4116 pages of rules and regulations. How this enormous plethora of regulations can be viewed as "deregulated" is beyond one's ability to grasp.

[kevinz1985]

Great work !

[bdburck]

keep up the great work.

[bdburck]

i don't think you need the music...kinda distracting. but good clips very interesting and kinda annoying

[jahan07]

Agree, music is distracting in this video.

[johnnythrust55]

maybe the music is distracting if you have the attention span of a nat.

[jahan07]

No. It is distracting b/c it takes away the attention from the speackers, speeches and statements being made.

[snslion]

That is one badass video bro. Continue the great job!

[buzzboygt]

nice.

[oryxx]

Keep it up. Well done.

[badonkadonk34]

Excellent - great work!

[schellaa]

Great video! It did take extremely long to load. How do we allow the same people to stay behind the wheel of the US economy? Can't wait for the next round of elections!

[norfair18]

I meant to press reply but I hit remove accidentally on someone's comment. He said perhaps put some schiff and paul clips in. In fact, I DID make a few minute clip of schiff and paul's best that i was planning on including in this, but I couldn't find a way to incorporate them because I didn't want this to be another tribute to them, and thought maybe this vid would reach more ppl if I left it out. Thanks for reply, sorry for deleting.

[JohnWMArxak47]

You might have to post this without the music, because they will probably mute it if it gets popular.

[shanklinmike]

Ready norfair? I am about to post it! Let's get this one 5000 views on my account! I will spread this video like crazy! Thank you so much my fellow Partiot! Expect some more of my subscribers to be heading your way in the next day or two. Peace

[jwinter228]

Pretty cool - hopefully people will start to wake up

[weggingt]

Very well done.

[pepziboy]
