(link to Lesson 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIsheDSCBK0)
Lesson 3 - Revisiting Civics 101 describes how the media projects a false picture in terms of who controls the US. This lesson illustrates the real power structure, which is modeled after the corporate governance system. It typically uses Ivy Leaguers to fill its ranks and it exercises ownership rights over the country to some degree.

  • I agree with most of what he has to say, but i disagree with his view on rich people. Rich do create stuff of value. Of course, this is not absolute, but generally speaking they get rich by providing stuff that society needs. For example, Henry Ford who created cheap effective cars that average Americans can drive.

  • @louis345 - I'm talking about the people WAY above his head who control the money system. They add no value...they take value.

    But regarding the lower level rich as well, throw out the fraudulent economic theories saying people get rich by serving people...look at the world in front of your eyes...not true. The more specific truth is they get rich by building the institutions the money controllers want. The Fed cartel funnels capital where they want it...they largely determine who gets rich.

  • @councilonsper I agree the Fed cartel places near insurmountable barriers to entry for startups and new entrepreneurs and even mom and pop businesses.

    But in history when "rich" people have been demonized without considering how they succeeded ( I do think some offer a beneficial product or service) the result has been to dismantle productive work (as the Bolsheviks did, the Maoists, the North Koreans etc.) and inflame class warfare that ended in bloodshed but no advantage to ordinary folk

  • @leafwatch - who funded the Bolsheviks, Mao, etc? they weren't popular rebellions anymore than Al Qaeda is.

    Sure, some offer beneficial product/service...at the expense of other things (lesson 4) and at the expense of the masses who are in debt (the only way to accumulate money in today's system is if other people are in debt...that's why the tech billionaire boom occurred at the same time as the debt boom).

    Don't let the false capitalism vs. communism choice make us scared of the truth.

  • I think this is a good start, but it misses the mark when it doesn't include the fractional reserve money multiplier effect and it doesn't take into account what happens when the people collecting interest spend that money. The interest money that is spent rebalances the P<P+I equation and this model just ignores that spending. The real world wants to spend money otherwise what is the point of earning interest?

  • @fredshope I didn't intend the P<P+I equation as a model...some good economists like Steve Keen have the true modelling covered. I just meant it as a symbol representing instability, usury, and exponential growth.

  • Sorry, but Martin Luther King was NOT a good guy - he was on the payroll of the NWO master criminals. His job was to help impose total Federal (aka banking cartel) criminal power onto the individual states. Apparently he was not doing the job he was being paid for so the master criminals decided to take him out one day.

  • Vrabel's critical of the esoteric priesthood of top down money, not men like Henry Ford, who provided real wages to people who performed real work. The Wall Street Priesthood does nothing, . . absolutly nothing in terms of "real" work. You cant work hard wearing $3000.00 suits. (Impossible) Try wearing one when you frame a house or put out a house fire. These people are reptiles and we sit on our hands and do nothing to tear down thier pyramid.

  • I am not a Bible thumper but I have read it. The only time that Christ got angry was when he ran the money changers, bankers, out of the temple. They must of been doing something fundamentally bad to piss of the Prince of Peace.

  • @fredshope lol !! the point of earning (why "earning"?) interest? do you really think the game is about money? Maybe for you and for me it is. But... for "them"?

    connect the dots, m8!...

  • Basic and well done. thanks so much ! Even the feeble minded ( which is a large section of the population ) should be able to grasp it.

  • Very good presentation! 

  • in current times rich people get rich by manipulating paper, not by creating value.

  • @lonepantherAK GO FCK YOURSELF somewhere else, lol!

  • @MyTwistedSister sftu white man is finished

    go boo-hoo somewheres else
