Hi supporters of UfSO, we have had to mutilate the video after a complaint. Hence audio replacement. If you go to our blog (universityforstrategicoptimis­m­­[dot]wordpress[dot]com), you can check out another video edit of this intervention, plus the transcript of the lecture. That same alternative video edit can be found on youtube if you search for University of Strategic Optimism. Please continue to follow our movements and get involved if you can!

Banks then hire lobbyists to press the government and media to reduce the deficit as quickly as possible as this then increases the value of the government bonds they have bought with our money.

[gerryalsoknownas]

Joseph Stiglitz also says that banks are not lending because they have identified a much more lucrative income stream. First of all the lend money from central banks at an exceptional low rate of interest (0.5% in the UK) and then use this money to buy government bonds at a much higher rate. They are currently making profit by loaning our own money back to us. Wealth –creators indeed!

Great work. Since Lloyds is mostly owned by the taxpayer now, that was your bank. Tell the merchant banker in the white shirt that he works for you.

banksters screwing the world using the force of our corrupt governments... please realize government itself is the problem the use of theft & force is no way to create a peaceful/prosperous society, new governments cannot solve the problem, only the absence of government will help us now
