About the comment by Americaisgreat123, Central banks are NOT a socialist monetary system, They ARE private banks masquerading as a govt institution.

It's how banks fool the gullible into thinking the govt is working against them, when in fact it's the banks, you know, calling themselves the FED etc. The FED is private Banks, Wake up!!! there is no free market!! It's rigged and it's the way big capitol likes it!!! they hate the free market. Same with big Biz...

This is stupid. It's like saying "America isn't free" because we have laws. Of course we have a free market economy. We live in a free society.

@vinnie1369 ...yep, therein lies the rub, as they say...but i do think most of us are not raving lunatics, hell-bent upon the destruction of others, just average joes tryin to get by...the fed though, and the big shots who determine the very field upon which we play, make that endeavor very rough indeed...

[vinnie1369]

@thefreedomartist The issue to keep in mind is OPINION. We all have our own ideas of what is right and what is wrong. And there in lies the problem. No one agrees. Yet we always try to impose our ideas of right and wrong on others.

@vinnie1369 ...hey there, i guess i am both agreeing and disagreeing with, (pretty slippery of me huh?), nah, seriously though, i don't think "true" freedom is the same as "counterfeit" freedom,

one operates from a morally upright compass and is not forced/coerced, while the other is merely lawlessness that requires big brother to hold the various threats of punishment over us to keep us in line...

[vinnie1369]

@thefreedomartist OK, so you are agreeing with me or not? Maybe I'm sleepy but you've got me a bit confused here.

TIP: click REPLY next to my comment so that yours attaches to mine. So I don't have to search all over creation to connect comments.

@vinnie1369 ...you are mistaking true freedom for those who use their liberty for a cloak of maliciousness...1 Peter 2:16...

...there are 2 kinds of freedom: one is legitimate, the other counterfeit and licentious, (lacking legal and moral constraint)...

...only when a person is operating illegally and immorally does law come into play...

...if people were operating with true freedom, no laws would be needed...

...and no, murder, etc. would not be legal...

[thefreedomartist]

@drusha1 ...yeah, just about as refreshing as some poisoned koolaid...

[thefreedomartist]

...and some people call it a sling blade, i call it a kaiser blade...

either way...carl chopped their heads clean off with it...

@Autojones I agree with your anger towards corporatism and influence-buying in Congress. This is a serious dilemma in a free-market most notably in Russia and new democracies. Promoters of the free-market, along with civil libertarians, generally are in agreement with such protests which are manifesting themselves in the Occupy movement. Interesting how we all agree on how wrong it is, but differ in how we see how the U.S. should turn out.
