  • I believe you all have listened to a grumpy old man tell you that "ooo shits evil" because his own life isnt too great and that its the governments fault for it. Would you respect that belief? Ofcourse not. All you people care about is yourselves and spreading your anti-governance, disrespectful, conspiracy theorist backed bullshit to people. Hell, its backed by your long life experience growing up as a disrespectful, chocolate cake demanding degenerate child. Just get the fuck out of America.

  • For real. If you think this country is fascist and too controlling for you, just get the fuck out. Its not hard. You can go where ever you want. You have that freedom. Dumbass. Do something for yourselves instead of bitching and moaning "I want iittt baaaaahhaaaa mommmmyyyy!!!" GTFO. The government isnt controlling that. You can go where ever the hell you all want. Do something about your situations, or gtfo. There are still people living their lives just fine here in America without you.

  • Its really not that hard. You have the freedom to. Its not like no one is putting a gun to your head and demand you to stay. "WAAAHHH I WANT CHOCLATE CAKE!!!". If the government was dumping money into your pockets, you people would still complain that the government is wasting money. The government GIVES money. It EXPECTS you to take advantage of the free market. DO something, or stop complaining and just leave. You people will back any conspiracy that comes to build arsenal against governance.

  • Why are they laughing in the beginning,,idiots. R.I.P all people who died that day!!!

  • Why should he? Actually, Russo only claims Rockefeller played pundit in assuming an event would trigger invasion into Afghanistan and Iraq---not a prediction of the 9 11 event specifically--"he never told me what the event was going to be."

  • See "Aaron Russos film suggests neo-cons planned 9/11, and to micro-chip all

    Americans" and Wikipedia > "9/11 conspiracy theories" and "America: Freedom to

    Fascism" > "Inaccuracies."

  • He was told about 9/11 eleven months in advance by his friend Nicholas Rockefeller. Nick Rockefeller still has never denied these claims.

    / \ this is bob. bob will take over youtube. haha bob.

  • That's a pretty nieve statement.

  • Nationalism is just as dangerous as racism and theism. If you ask me destroying national borders would be a good thing, as long as the constitution is similar and the bill of rights remains.

  • One world government is dangerous! Dictatorship is dangerous. This is not good, and the Constitution and Bill of Rights will not happen.

  • One world government isn't necessarily a dictatorship. And no government can survive without the support of the people, it exists only with the strength of the military supporting it.

    The economic implications of making this work would create an effective checks and balances against abuse of power.

  • I respectfully disagree. I don't and will not trust people who meet in secret and use fear and terror manipulate people for their own personal enjoyment and financial gain. They don't respect human life. They are blood thirsty evil people, and there will only be abuse of power with no checks and balances.

  • I just think their thirst for blood is only satisfied as far as their militaries are willing to carry it out, and military personnel have families too.

    Who knows, the fear and terror we see could be signs of a behind the scenes power play between factions of this hypothetical group seeking for global "control".

    I also think that it is inevitable as our speed of communication increases. Once we all have full enhanced reality access to the internet in real time, borders will be meaningless.

  • You're a good world citizen. Sit citizen, sit.

  • You arrogant fool, you think you know everything? You think you have some secret inside information? You're as deluded as a cult member and you need to open your eyes.

  • How does telling you to sit imply any of that? wow?

  • One world government is in direct opposition of individual freedoms. Logically thinking this through is essential; through broad-sweeping "standards" no one has the right to life unmolested by this world entity, there is no more force contrary to it except the quieted dissent of few who are silenced by the only military force which then occupies everything having no enemy but their own people. It puts government's last foe as gvmnt supposed supporters. Representation of soveriegn Will is hated.

  • Comment removed

  • @AmberCorwin So far it hasnt been a "one world government"? HAS it? You know whats hated? Its people that instead of taking advantage of whats given to you, they rather believe in conspiracy backed anti-government belief. The only thing I see that can be mistaken as a "one world" plot is our embassies in that we make sure our people are safe travelling. It IS threw those embassies that the wrong person gets into America. I would respect the fact we have eyes and ears on the worst of people.

  • videos very well done ...the message is pretty scary

  • good video

  • OMFG dude, I do!

    This is serious stuff, man.

    I'm sorry you think it's shit. I wish for you to see it's importance.

  • cptndw-you're shit...america is 9.4 trillion in debt asswipe. YOU better watch "this shit" because your ass is the one who doesn't know what the hell is going on you fucking bozo.

  • yikes...this is the problem w democracy...esp when the majority is lazy and ignorant

  • nice job on the video, like the original but for people with no attention span.

  • Anyone with more firepower than you have can "take away your rights".

    The whole concept of government is a perversion of personal liberty.

    We don't need governments [the illusion of power] or bankers [the true managers of power] or a military [ignorant pawns who think they are defending the people].

    We need to get rid of the banking system and use the internet as the perfect bartering medium.

    The real value of goods and services will find an equilibrium.

    The control freaks will become impotent.

  • That's a heck of a policy.....but with the bullshit failures we've endured, why not!!

    Got your back!!!!

  • great video...most americans are so damn clueless they couldn't see fascism if it was staring them in the face...and it already is.

  • @avoozl07 America is either going in a socialist government or a communist.

  • Blessings

  • Now renegades are the people with their own philosophies

    They change the course of history

    Everyday people like you and me

    We're the renegades we're the people

    With our own philosophies

    We change the course of history

    Everyday people like you and me

  • o yeah I forgot and your family also

  • I also think that more money for your self not paying so many taxes means you can save you money and there would be no more inflation on the dollar so your money will be worth more you know so you can live free and take care of your self.

  • Whats wrong with us merging into one country.

    Exactly thayt would be great. Also taxes aren't that bad. Hell you have scholarships and grants can go to school for free. You also get money(residuals). You can shopping buy a car with those residuals. You can retire when you get old and not work because people pay taxes. You have welfare for poor people, food stamp so people can eat. Section 8.

    Taxes aren't that bad really. We benefit them.

  • Well you do not see the big picture.With the 9 trillion dollar deficit and most of are good jobs over seas it would not be a good idea.If we where to send are troops home and change are four en policy so we do need so many taxes we can fix the economy witch would bring more jobs then I see merging together would be a good idea.Other wise we will just be at each others throats.

  • Just as the consumer wants more stuff: a bigger house, a nicer car, a faster motorcycle—the bankers want larger profits, higher interest rates and greater power. Thus the oppressed subjugate themselves to the oppressor with their desires, and the oligarchs are more than happy to capitulate. Only an substantial aggregate changes in people's attitudes, desires, and views on individual responsibility will bring true change. Otherwise we perpetuate the revolution of tyranny.

  • 911 was just another Reichstag fire. Wasn't Hitler's real name "Schicklgruber" meaning "sump digger"? Do you think people would have taken him more serious using this Catholic name? Didn't the Bush family (Samuel Prescott Bush) give Hitler a lot of money to get the Nazis into power?

  • Don't listen to b9keith...hes just a sad case of waisted oxygen and space. Hes a sad little man...If u don't believe me just go watch his favs.

  • devilbreath = pussy

  • The time of Jacob's trouble is near as told by Isaiah..God will stir the Medes (Iran) who have no regard for silver and do not delight in Gold! Isaiah 13:17

    Cannot be bought off by Israel or the U.S. The righteous or the wicked.

    Isaiah 13 The Day of The Lord! Followers of Christ read all of Matthew 25.

    Use an online Bible like theblueletterbibe :)

  • Shut the fuck up, dumb ass. No one cares what you're poorly written fantasy book says.

  • OH BOTHER, ANOTHER CONSPIRACY THEORY....ELVIS LIVES! rip poor aaron and his silly thoughts.

  • illuniate4u- STFU, the only thing silly is the fact how far you have your head up your ass.

  • R.I.P. Russo. Our country is now in more trouble now that you are gone.

  • But the country is better off because he lived. I think one of his greatest contributions was "America: Freedom to Fascism" because this movie educated people about the Federal Reserve system.

    Furthermore, it put Ron Paul on the map due to his appearance in the movie. I believe this alone has really contributed to the "Ron Paul Revolution" that we're witnessing at this time.

  • run4ny- I definately hear you. I agree. However, I can't help to wonder what else he could have done in the future. Hopefully, someone will fill in his big shoes...

  • SheLovesG - you're a fruit basket. Typical College hippie who knows it all. All of this really reminds me of the hippie invasion in a South Park episode (was that controlled by the feds too?)

    Do all of us a favor, don't reproduce. Kill yourselves the next time a comet comes close to Earth.

    Further, these posts remind me of the future our miss teen carolina offered us on NBC.

  • Aaron Russo( RIP): Freedom Fighter passed away

    Aaron Russo was the Samuel Adams of our day, a stalwart defender of liberty, his passing is greatly mourned but his fiery spirit lives on in all of his great work and in his wife, his children and his film America From Freedom to Fascism.

  • "You catch the game last night?" EXACTLY!!! THIS IS THE KIND OF DISTRACTION-ORIENTED POPULACE WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH! Unfuckingbelievable.

  • go to sleep America! go to sleep!

    We are protecting You!!!

  • I just learned about your death Aaron, I want you to know that I am truly saddened by it. The media has yet to mention you, I wonder why? The truth is never told. That is why my media has been the internet. That is where I met you. You changed America with your presence, you have awoken millions to the truth, we will finish the game.

  • It really hurt me when I found out. This is truly a great loss. He was so courageous when he was on Earth, I'm sure he will still help us from beyond. Rest in Peace Aaron.

  • This is what youtube is all about.

  • To watch the entire Aaron Russo video, google "Historic Interview with Aaron Russo"

  • Wake up all!

  • hey you guys should know the only reason a producer is doing this is so he can sell you his future movie (after the free ones). dont fall for it. dont give him your money.

  • Cant say I like the song supporting regulation of the media by the FCC. "...controlled by a few corporations, thanks to deregulation by the FCC". When will people see that free speech doesn't mean speech that you like?

  • VOTE RON PAUL and dethrone the bankers!

  • "If the Bush administration wants to continue its wars in the Middle East and to entrench the "unitary executive" at home, it will have to conduct some false flag operations that will both frighten and anger the American people and make them accept Bush's declaration of "national emergency" and the return of the draft. Alternatively, the administration could simply allow any real terrorist plot to proceed without hindrance." Paul Craig Roberts

  • Right at the end....  the sheep... BAAA... hahahaa

    Aaron Russo is a legend!!

  • My favorite bit too. Baaaaa

    RP 08 FTW

  • I love the bit about democracy.. so true.. the word doesn't even exist by example..

  • so fuckin true, I love this video.

  • Watch American Freedom Agenda Part 1 right now! You'll WAKE up fast! Then America Freedom to Fascism, Iron Mountain,Secret Space,The Signs of the Last Days and 9/11 Press for the truth. Watch these and you'll know whats going on. Some bits may be boring to some but its worth it. Tried to post, 'Reinstate our Constitution' on hillary's campain site. It wasn't approved! Another neo-con.

    Ron Paul mind your back man. You know how evil they are.

  • Thanks - I'll watch them ALL! Ron Paul will help save this country...911 was DEFINATELY an inside job. You'd have to be dumber than dirt to not know that!

  • Or too scared to think straight, which I think is a far more common barrier.

  • Heros:

    Aaron Russo

    Ron Paul

    Ed and Elaine Brown

    Alex Jones

    Lou Dobbs

  • I fear the IRS, FEMA, and the CIA more than any terrorist, nuclear bomb, or disease on earth. research it and you'll know why.

  • Again 'WE ARE WAKING UP'. This is quite easy to counteract, stop using your credit cards and banks, leave the banking system, barter, don't buy into the 'we need crap' society. Food, Shelter and love are all you NEED to live happily. Get rid of your cars and TVs. Stick your finger up to the elite and start living again. Good luck and may your SOUL go with you.

  • Aaron Russo ROCKS!!

  • There are related videos to this subject entitled "Money Masters" and "Zeitgeist". Don't mark this as spam, search for them and learn more about the 9/11 cartoon information.

  • Also search for Money Masters here or on video.google

  • Search for ZEITGEIST, The Movie - Part 3 here or on video.google

  • i ask myself sometimes what it was like to live in germany in 1935, what people were like during the first socilogical fruits of this wicked game and then i hit the heavy bag for an hour to calm down.

  • YOUR THE MAN! I love this man, you should burn this on to DVD and jam this!

  • how many people does it take to screw in a light bulb --- well let you no right after a commmercial ---- ok we are now live with our emmbedded reporter at the light bulb screwing ---- it take noone to screw in a light bulb theres no spin here

  • Americans are the biggest puppets and mind controlled whites on the planet.

    Canadians, Europeans and Australians are more free thinking and freedom enjoying people.

  • not rly we just like to pretend that we are ;)

  • Well Done!

  • Vote Ron Paul '08'

  • wake up america!!!!

  • pro conspiracy ppl should just drop the 9/11 shit, its so obvious, but even not taking 9/11 into consideration there are so many factors pointing to the fact that the world is becoming a one world government. George Bush senior said it on NATIONAL TELEVISION and still people dont believe it. Its like Dr. Stanley Monteith said, there are way too many clues here, so people just cover in corners and discards facts as ridiculous lies.

  • It's like Adams' "S.E.P. field" idea: something in plain sight gets ignored, because it must be Somebody Else's Problem. If it were exactly what it appeared to be, we'd all be in an uproar!!!

    RP 08 FTW

  • WAKE UP AMERICA!

  • Usurper84, time to wake up. Time to take the challenge and do a little research. Time to try to actually come up with a believable theory as to why Building 7 collapsed in 6.5 seconds, symetrically, into its own footprint.

  • This video comes off a little fuzzy. Hold on... Let me adjust my tin foil hat... Ah, crystal clear. Now let me relax and take a sip of my Kool-Aid and LSduh... Kool-Aid.

  • if this rockeller group, the council on foreign relations really were the ones that executed 9/11 and killed 1000's of people that day, then it would be easy for them to kill one more. they would have already killed aaron russo for revealing their secret plans. get it? lets face it, this man is lying. and i think he is losing his mind. i am wondering if he took some bad drugs at some point in his life and is dealing with the consequenses of it now.

  • Russo isn't lying. This all makes sense. See his film AMERICA: FREEDOM TO FASCISM. Also see TERRORSTORM and 911 MYSTERIES.

  • Killing aaron russo would only make more glaringly obvious that America is run by a shadow government. Letz face it, your in denial.

  • darn I made the same point and then fond out you made that point as well. Stay vigilant truther.

  • He only reaches like 5 percent of America right now. He's not a big threat to them. If he becomes, they'll not kill him because then his documentary and its supporters can't go by unnoticed and large numbers of people will inevitably find out what these thugs are doing to the country and the world. You can also ask the question: why don't the Rockefellers challenge Aaron with facts? Watch America Freedom to Fascism, you cannot possibly debunk it.

  • The fact is that the law saying you have to pay income tax is easy to find with a 30 second google search. Type "tax law title 26" and hit I´m feeling lucky. Tada! You´ve debunked this ridiculous movie. Google "tax protester faq" for more information.

  • care to elaborate on your stupid post?

  • a google post about tax means nuthing fool...you are so had by the cartels

  • "The fact is that the law saying you have to pay income tax is easy to find with a 30 second google search."

    So why did the feds just lost yet another case (vs. Tom Cryer) over this exact point? Maybe you should pass your helpful hints along to them. ;-)

    RP 08 FTW

  • killing aaron russo wouldn't do anything. they new world order is going to move on us, whether we're aware of their tyranny or not. awake or asleep, they're moving on us, killing our patriots don't mean anything. these people admit their intentions in their own documents, that's how most informers get informed. haha, lets face it, you have a low iq, and don't research.

  • You said it brother. But they have killed a lot of other people for a lot less..lot's of very suspicious 'suicides' and 'plane crashs'. Know what I mean? I hope Aaron continues to SPEAK OUT!

  • Because Aaron Russo is public he is untouchable. think about it, if he dies mysteriously people would know he was saying the truth so not only will our government NOT kill him. They more than likely would make sure that he would live just so he wouldn't be a martyr

  • too bad he just recently passed away with cancer :(

  • sadness

  • Vote Ron Paul 08 if you want the constitution restored and care about this country

  • the answer to 1984 is 1776

  • there are telltale signs of lying in AAron Russo. If you cant see them then you WANT to believe lies. The Bible speaks of people who 'love and believe lies'

  • iinstead of saying " you want to believe lies" , why not just point out the signs for everyone to see and judge for themselves? cause I look at everything with scepticizm before I past judgement, so wheres your proof?

  • That account has been closed, so I guess we'll never know what the "telltale signs" were. What a shame.

  • Support S. 687 [109th]: Software Principles Yielding Better Levels of Consumer Knowledge Act

    A bill to regulate the unauthorized installation of computer software, to require clear disclosure to computer users of certain computer software features that may pose a threat to user privacy, and for other purposes.

    Call your senator NOW!!!

  • Hmmm... might be a good thing, but I think I'd rather see this arise within the market than descend from legislative fiat. Congress and software mix badly, IMO.

    RP 08 FTW

  • Still don't like rosie much though.

  • i agree but shut down the fed

  • These are shown with the facts in hand, to dissolve the lies. Pride needs to lie, to feel and have the illusion of Power. People with the knowledge and facts do not need to lie, because they care about people. That

    is True Power. Love God and Man. Not Oil Dynasty's/Big business/Absolute wealth/Government. The Human Life is

    much more important and Valuable than Big Business and

    Government.

  • Very well said!

    Hope, not fear.

    RP 08 FTW

  • Without Truth and facts, there is wide open space for lies and propaganda!!!! The Truth/facts is the only thing Reliable. Ex. An uncut video tape of a person beating someone. Through that out and Now make way for lies and Distractions. Let's smarten up people. We can do better. A lot better. No New World. Restore America.

    Vote Ron Paul in 08' Please if you have ears to hear, understand. Facts and answers, get the good Grades.

  • The USA war of independance was for nothing.

    The USA is conrolled and ruled by by British owned banks. The main owners of which is British Royalty!

    These private banks print American money, charges the goverment interest, and thus tax the US citizen.

    Most Americans are too ignorant to even look into this. Thus they have been setting the stage for the USA's big fall for nearly 100 years.

    Welcome back to the Commonwealth.

  • The United States is a privately-held corporation with controlling interest owned by The Crown. See: Stephen Ames, Jordan Maxwell, Johnny Liberty.

  • Key words here: "high ranking individuals". High ranking individuals does not guarantee getting the truth, moron!

  • Most Russo fans seem to be holding a shibboleth:

    A shibboleth is a belief that serves the purpose of identifying the believer as one of the good guys, prominently planted on the side of the angels. They transform questions about facts and causation into questions about personal identity and moral worth: They make people feel good and keep offthe agenda painful questions of how dangerous itis to have policies which impact millions without knowledge of hard fact needed to understand actual impact

  • I was never claiming to be an expert I am claiming that the very basics of mainstream economics (the things people have been trying to disprove for 50 years and not succeeded yet) are better than yours and that you have little if any OBJECTIVE evidence which overturns the BALANCE OF PROBAILITY (i.e. taking into account all the data not just the anecdotes which support Russo's assumptions about the fed).

  • Why the hell do you even care about the Fed in the first place? You should be worried about the fricking Bank of England!

  • Read about Cecil Rhodes & The Round Table, The Fabian Socialists who founded the London School of Economics, The Tavistock Institute for Human Relations. The more you read about these subjects and others the more you'll realise your reality has been shaped for you, without your consent & not in your best interest.

  • Whatever, amara..you think what you like; I haven't heard you give any hard cold facts of your own, that are even pertinent. Russo has done his research, as I said before. No one's making a messiah out of him; he knows what he's talking about plain and simple. You say you live in the UK and so how does that make you qualified to make assessments on our country and what it takes to make it run correctly, or what our Constitution is about?

  • 1 last try, Ama is pretty smart for a 19 yr old. He? just needs to go back a little further. All the major central banks, of which the Fed is one, were set up with very specific goals in mind. I'll make it local for Him?

  • Go back further is a good way to put it. Using 50 years of artificial pseudoreality to argue against 5000 years of history is daffy, yet is precisely what you get when you pay the big bux for a "good" education from a "top notch" skool these days.

    Such rubbish. Watch Ron Paul vs. Greenspan and/or Bernanke, right here on YT. Game over.

    RP 08 FTW

  • SheloveG, a lot of what your saying is just empirically wrong, including your definition of inflation. You have offered absolutely no evidence for your hypotheses but have just uncritically repeating Russo's unfounded assumptions and half truths. I suggest you stop being attracted to charismatic con men and go do some proper research.

  • And what research have you done? Reading mainstream publications by bought out journalists and newspapers?? Aaron Russo has DONE HIS HOMEWORK, and has had personal experience WITH high ranking individuals who have informed him! His material is well researched and thorough! I doubt you can say the same!

  • Besides, Cuba really owns the fed anyway. What? Can't prove it false? Therefore it must be true!

    (sarcasm)

  • Not being able to fund a budget deficit means no investment spending which means no public schools, no injecting investment to create jobs, terrible roads and the general lack of any of the normal social serices ect. The same thing happened during the collapse of the former soviet union. Both experienced hyperinflation as a result of their central bank loosing it's power.

  • As far as the flexibilty of the dollar and all the other funtions of the Fed you described, those could all be executed just as well if not better under the authority of the U.S. Treasury instead of a cartel. BTW the standard of living in the U.S. was much higher when there was no debt to speak of.

  • Now I don't mean there should be no such thing as private credit, but the gov't would no longer have to (be able to) borrow from a private entity, at interest to operate.

  • You can't deny any a central banking system exerts a stabilizing influence. Case in point; small business loans in Mali and Ghana. Mali's government had a free trade approach and Ghana's decided to connect peg their currency to the dollar. Mali's currency was washed up and down, and so you have crazy inflation. Ghana meanwhile has a stable currency. Business prospers because business people can afford to pay their loans and get steady business rather than a decrease because, unlike in Mali.

  • (In place of the f__dup one from earlier) The plain fact is the Fed has been in violation of the constitution since it was created December, Friday before Christmas in 1913. The Fed could be seized and federalised at any time by executive order. Such order would have to be upheld by the supreme court because it would be constitutionally sound.

  • 1. The Constitution gives the authority to issue currency to the Department of the Treasury, only. Check out the story of president Andrew Jackson. 2. America is a constitutional republic, not a democracy. Also, gold is relatively stable.

  • The fact that you do not make a distinction between direct democracy and representative democracy and the 'it is or it isn't ' tone suggests a lack of understanding of the political concept. It's never that black or white. You should be asking 'to what EXTENT is America a democracy'. Complete cynicism is the most common form of naiveté.

  • The plain fact is the Fed has bee Now I don't mean there be no such thing as private credit, but the gov't would no longer have to (be able to) borrow from a private entity, at interest to operate.n in violation of the constitution since it was created December, Friday before Christmas in 1913. The Fed could be seized and federalised at any time by executive order. Such order would have to be upheld by the supreme court because it would be constitutionally sound.

  • Please suggest and alternative to the government borrowing from the private sector to finance investment that resultis in economic growth. and most of what it pays isn't interest to the fed, it pays to those who buy bonds via the fed and much of that is nominal and not real interest.

  • Again, the question I'm concerned with is 'TO WHAT EXTENT is the rule of law upheld in America' I have no problem with a long standing broadly utilitarian ( Read a macroeconomics text book for confirmation) constitutional convention being taken as comparable to a constitutional amendment. Why? Take the economic and political ramifications of getting rid of the 'unconstitutional' Fed and you get an American version of the economic and social problems facing failed states like Somalia.

  • Also, Ama, your Somalia scenario would be laughable if weren't so pathetic. Who do you think put & keeps(funds & controls) all these warlords & despots? It's the same people behind Fed & all the central banks of Europe, and others.

  • Somalia is not a false analogy, it is a very good example of what happens when there is no income tax system and no working indipendent central bank.

    The collapse of taxes collected by the government creates a vaccum for taxes collected by the mafia. In Somalia the government stopped collecting taxes and ceased to exist so you started having local thugs do the same, but did not give the community any services.

  • This is pointless, I've made my attemp and I am correct about the Fed, Somalia, and the rest. And stabilizing? every boom & bust cycle for the past, almost 100 years has been engineered by the Fed. You are either a victim of willful ignorance or some disinfo bot. And I very much care if it's constitutional or not. You're not an American citizen, are you.

  • shelovesG You offer no convincing evidence yet you just 'feel' you are right. truely, you are a sheep. And no I am not American, my parents are Somali living in the UK and you are arguing from a woeful state of ignorence. Go read a macroeconomics textbook, live in a refugee camp for a while, then come back to me.

  • Yup, you're 100% correct, sheLovesG, but unfortunately it's fruitless to argue with some who prefer to remain in ignorance!

  • The relationships are mathematically provable.

  • However, Ama, 'cynical' & 'naive' are relative terms. Actually a 1 oz. gold coin has the same buying power today as it did in the Roman Empire, and I mean actually purchasing with gold, not converting it to currency. A 1oz. gold coin get you a quality suit, pair of shoes & a belt. As it did in ancient Rome.(toga, sandals & belt) Maybe not Hermes, but good quality not Kmart. And I have a huge problem with taking a constitutoinal convention in place of an amendment.

  • As for gold the key words there are 'relatively' and the lack of a time frame reference. Look to the relevant time frames and trend data.

  • Mathematically Provable? O.K. Prove it! Of Course you'll need the actual figures to do that. The Fed hasn't opened it's books for auditing in a long time. And maybe I was trying not to be to blunt before but I shouldn't have used the word "relatively' as golds' value is constant, it's price fluxuations merely reflect the buying power of the dollar at any given point. inflation is not really prices going up (costs) but the value of the dollar declining. (buying power)

  • The flexibility of the dollar is generally a good thing. It affects everything from the amount imported and exported to the availability of bank loans and aggregate demand. It needs to adjust to changing market conditions. It's a balancing act between different interests, the most important of which is the trade off between economic growth and the unemployment rate and inflation. Inflation must be kept slightly positive if the economy is to grow at a decent rate.

  • Bankers often end up owning all, & people get mad once they catch on. I applaud anyone w/ talents who uses them to become wealthy... BUT, only if done honestly. Fractional reserve banking isn't honest; fictional reserve, even less so. You are a calculating advocate of economic tricks, amaravajra. The institutions you defend have tricked & enslaved my country. Honesty & knowledge of history is the answer, not private banking cartels & the myth of a stable fiat $.

    RP 08 FTW

  • And if you where wondering about fractional reverse banking Money loaned by banks is still based on a function of reserves held. Hence, irrelevant.

  • That was FUN AND INFORMATIVE! I have been passing out as many copies of "Press For Truth", "Improbable Collapse", and "Dr Ray Griffin's 911 Myth Reality" as I can copy and pass out. It really works, I have woken up dozens of people, and it creates a snowball effect. We have to get everyone informed, once ppl see the facts, 90% of them respond in rational realization of 911 beng an inside job. I promise you will find the same.

  • regulates money? come on man wake up!

  • Pavementistrad, before instructing others to "take economics" why don't you explain how 'fractional reserve banking' works. Enlighten us with your knowledge. Also, would you please tell us who owns the Federal Reserve Bank, that's right, owns. When was it created ? Is It constitunional ? BTW a liberal arts degree at a state college will give you just enough education to make you arrogant while remaing blissfully ignorant. Or maybe it's an associates degree.

  • ShelovesG- How amusing, you have accused P of being irrational (the correct term here is illogical) however you have provided NO good or even informed arguments for your own point of view, let alone empirical evidence that every statistical analysis of the Fed and it's relationship with EVERY component of economy is wrong.

    You have merely implied P doesn't know what he/she is talking about by asking for a definition of a mostly irrelevant term, proving you looked up a big word in wikipedia.

  • You have "book smarts" but no insight into the workings of international banking; that it is a complex and highly organized cartel at it's roots. The information is out there if you care to look into it.

  • No one informed trusts the newspapers so implying I do or that I have not observed the practical effects of economic theory myself is a silly asumption. I don't just argue from theory, I also argue form experience of having someone's pretty graphs screw over a country

  • sheLovesG - just read back and realized you where joking, sorry. but well done for the humour

  • Ama, here are NO reserves, NO gold standard, There han't been since Nixon took us off the Bretton Woods system. 70', 71'? The Dollar is a completely fiat currency, only paper. Soon to be only digits in a computer, if we let that happen. Would you like to challenge any other assertion I've made hear. I'll even help you, gor for the Jesuit thing it's the looniest. I bet you suck at poker.

  • I was talking about reserves of other assets, BUT WHY GOLD? Its just as useless as paper, just more traditional and heavier.

    Guess what. The price of gold fluctuates more than the dollar on average and its supply is controlled by large multinational mining corporations.

  • Its all very well screaming 'OMG, it's only people that give money it's value!' but it's more efficient and more stable than every other system humanity's every tried. Same with democracy. You can scream 'OMG, our leaders do bad things for there own benefit!' all you want but democracy is still a DAM site better than everything else humanity has ever tried.

  • A side benefit would be that accountability for any expenditures would be front & center. We should also repeal the national security act of 1947. Black Budget, over 4 trillion unaccounted for at the Pentagram.

  • again your being ridiculously black and white with Somalia. SOME wars and warlords are American creations but you'd halfto come up with some VERY good evidence to suggest that the Somali warlords who have attacked American and UN forces in the past would be American puppets. Remember American forces where fighting these warlords in the 1990s.

  • Have any of you ever been able to do nothing whilst you knew your friends where being tortured by the police, been made to denounce your religion in public for fear of what youd happen to your parents, ever had to pay an extortionate cost to the triad so your children could go to school?

    I'll tell you from experience of semi-democracies and People's Republic's that corrupt elected politicians are a HELL OF A LOT better than unelected ones.

  • Executive Order 11110, June 4, 1963, JFK. Of course they might not wanna get their head blown off. Lincoln also tried with the greenback, currency issued soley under the authority of the U.S. Treasury subject to congressional oversight without interest. Oh yes thats how it was and should be and could be again.

  • Most of what you've posted is irrelevant anyway, I regard the constitution as a means to maintaining a certain level of Human rights through power checking rather than as anything with intrinsic value. I really don't care if it's constitutional or not, I care about what would happen to the American people if you removed it or federalized it.

  • If you look into it, you'll find that we are just a few steps away of being victimized by our "elected" leaders even now with the Patriot Act. Our leaders are disassembling our free republic with their legislations that are not even written about in major newspapers because of the major media being sold out. Take your nose out of your books and the Times and start getting educated.

  • Vigilance, You said the information was out there is you look for it but without understanding of the scientific method and publishing for peer review you end up cheery picking the data that supports you hypothesis, as Russo has done. -- this is what you learn from experience with conmen

  • Conmen? Oh really! You obviously have not actually listened to anything that Aaron Russo has done. You probably skimmed thru it, if that! Then copped an attitude or had the attitude beforehand, OR you were planted here to disrupt by the CIA, or some other federal group, LOL!!

  • Yeah, life is uncertain like that. Deal with your lack of control over all that is not your own mind and go do something productive

  • And any future president wouldn't even have to write a new order as there is already one still pending, Executive Order 11110, June 4, 1963, JFK. Of course they might not wanna get their head blown off. Lincoln also tried with the greenback, currency issued soley under the authority of the U.S. Treasury subject to congressional oversight without interest. And any future president wouldn't even have to write a new order as there is already one still pending,
