Do your own fucking research professor, you are the one who was going to educate everyone.

I did educate you then you got pissy and said i should quote wikapedia more I thought going in depth with corporatism relating to the american revo and for that matter, the civil war, and just about any war known to man, would be pretty boring for the average reader. and frankly, you dont really seem worth the effort.

Wait just a god damned minute. I thought I was supposed to hate the hedge funds. Am I still supposed to hate those guys? I don't know shit about it, could someone paste some internet info on that?

You didn't do anything but cut and paste from some website and then quote FDR, a god damn socialist, after crying about big government.

No, this week we are hating the banks. It was nice of you to play though, I think Tribaltalon will cut and paste you a door prize from some other site here in a moment...

And that matters how? Or are you just going to piss and moan about capitalism not working? Or is it the big bad boogey man "fiat currency"?

They loaned their own money and got interest on it!! What an outrage, you'd think we had a system of capitalism in this country or something. The audacity! Everyone knows that once you get rich, (being purely defined by the judgement of hippies, the government and/or internet blog readers) then you no longer have a right to make any money.

We need constitutional money. Its not capatilism when the game is rigged. The Fed steals our money through inflation and sends it overseas to offshore banks. (literally)

[Baba Ganoush]

Vote Ron Paul.






That is all!

Sounds great, I'm all for it, tell us how we'd want to go about that given the fact that the gold standard was a failure.

Nah, they just used this fiat as a way to leverage without leveraging. Don't have enough cash? Print more. Can't print it all right now, run a line of debt with controlled inflation every year. It also justifies more spending (investing in the financial institutions that created this) for the government.

1910- JP Morgan's secret little meeting with the other big players at that time on Jeckyl Island... 1913 comes around and BAM! Federal Reserve is born. 1933 gold confiscation and dollar is worth less and less every day. EVERY DAY!

It's all about theft through purchasing power.

[line-em-up]

...

I can see it now, lots of dirty hippies with eight fish hooks in their face, giant hoops in their ears and sleeve tats saying the world isn't fair because no one wants to give them a job.

It'll look like a Rob Zombie concert.

You're wrong. Open a history book and learn you something about the east Indies trading company.

Do you really think the media would be airing legitimate protestors? Why dont you just sit back and enjoy your koolaid the government will take care of this disturbance

I think he probably has, and noted it was a state sponsored monopoly with extraordinary powers.

There are exchanges all over the world and they compete for blood. the opposite of a monopoly.

[Bassics]

In mediaval Europe, and even during the empire that preceded, gold was still part of a fiat currency.

Anyone who thinks wealth is pigeon-holed because of a fiat currency may want to examine Marcus Crassus.

The fiat exists when the note becomes wealth and not the reserve.

Another reason to like this guy!

just throwing this out there... but there was a time where Americans could drop out of high school and become something. the focus has become so fixed on a college education not skills. Everyone wants a easy office job outsourcing to someone else, but people just aren't willing to pursue it any more. Most drop outs who make it, make it because they had to, they had drive and work ethic, or families to support. They were forced to succeed, kids today graduate and expect to succeed. And it really pissed me off because half of them half no skills or work ethic and they would end up under my boss's wing and i had to fix all the mistakes they made. Thats the reason I own my own company, and dabble in other types of finance.

It is only about theft through purchasing power if you have put your money in something that doesn't adjust for inflation. That is, the government steals from people who don't invest wisely. As I said above, the other choice is an inflexible money supply based on something like gold where wealth is destroyed every 20 years because credit dries up.
