SR 6 - Nov. 22, 2009 - The Still Report on the Economy

hold on- govt SHOULD control it especially AWAY from the greedy private sector. Govt in its truest form- hect in its original form is the PEOPLE- its public built on accountability. however the current fed reserve is private meaning no govt- yet look where we r- in trillions of debt.

Government is good. A Republic, where citizens participate to govern themselves is a freedom system born and preserved in blood. It should not be abandoned. The problem is that we have allowed the big banks to dominate. So now what was envisioned by the Founders is just the skeleton -- but the skeleton remains. We can fix this if we -- as both Bryan and Jefferson put it -- get the bank out of the governing business.

Gold-only  money systems don't work, never have worked. Name one nation at any time in history where a gold-only money system worked to enhance freedom for the average person?

Government borrowing is what has stimulated the explosive growth of Washington D.C. over the last one-hundred years.

We must terminate the ability of American governments to borrow money and ban fractional reserve banking.

"You will always get criminals who will try to get the control of it."

That's exactly what we have right now, except that it's not primarily the Congress. It is Wall Street and the Federal Reserve Corporation.

The bankers create all the money, not the legislators. Who do you think is going to have more influence over the other here?

you can't be serious with this...
It took them time to get criminals in the senate and congress so they could buy them off.
It is all people's fault for letting this happen of course

"It took them time to get criminals in the senate and congress so they could buy them off."

You just made my point right there. And it IS the fault of The People for allowing this. Any system, Constitution, or whatever, is only as good as the participants who are supposed to be vigilant over it.

It would be no different for a monetary system of debt-free national currency, with safeguards, restriction mechanisms, and electoral accountability.

The way I see it. They sat down long time ago and started to study human behavior and what corrupts them. There are few of us who know about this and understand their sick game. Unfortunately there are too few of us to turn it around and we will most likely be dragged with these retarded masses over the cliff.
Of course I'll fight for my life best to my abilities but if they can't fully control us no one will. They will destroy this planet first rather than let us be free.

"... we simply cannot put our trust in men to distribute our money. A commodity however doesn't think, doesn't cheat, doesn't manipulate or counterfeit."

Yes, a commodity cannot think, cheat, manipulate or counterfeit, MEN do those things - Unelected, unaccountable, profiteering, plutocratic men.

The dominant commodities are always fixed in quantity and thus always subject to manipulation & monopolization.

monopolization will only happen if again there is no true capitalism. which is what's happening now.
It's all about transparency as well. I'm not saying just have it backed by gold and it;s all fixed.
It doesn't even have to be gold but something that will measure the monies value and all the people can see how the money is circulated
