  • We cephalopodphiles are somewhat offended by this comparison between a perfectly innocent cephalodpod and bankers. It's extremely negative to the squid.

  • Great video. Saw it on maxkeiser (dot) com.

    Thanks for all your hard work.

  • Bankers used to be sharks ,been around for centuries top carnivore but, this works so much better "giant squib " from ancient mariners tales revealed to be Bank !Love it !

  • @orangedac im not dumb or ignorant, im sceptic. which is obvious after all those fail presidents and fail jobs and fail promises. wait and see

  • @theCREAPx

    like i said, you probably don't know a thing about RP's economic message.

    most peope are too ill-infomed or maybe just too dumb to understand it and in my opinion, too ignorant to be voting.

  • @orangedac well me neither duh, but i dont believe what a president candidate says until he does what he says. if its a lot of blabla like always i wont be surprised...

  • Subtitles please! In spanish bether. ;P

  • @theCREAPx

    well maybe you'd like to be ripped off by banking goons & their paper shuffling & money counterfeiting racket but i don't.

  • @orangedac taking your money. nothing more, nothing less. it been like that since the beginning of time and it will be like that till humanity finally lays down its head...

  • @theCREAPx

    i bet you don't understand what the federal reserve & fiat racket is all about.

  • @orangedac maybe, but ive heard that about four years ago as well...

  • @theCREAPx

    Sadly a good majority of people out there are too stupid to understand RP's message on the monetary system.
