I wish I had written this. It is perfect. I want everyone I know to read it. Alas, they are all convinced to the contrary and are part of mass formation psychosis and so won't listen. This is instructional in and of itself. It's not that they won't agree, it's that they won't even listen. This is another problem that is standing directly in the way of turning this ship back into a constitutional republic. Thank you for this. Going immediately into my saved posts!

The one thing I have to disagree with is your statement that “the right-wing party is devoid of even a shred of the courage and intellect necessary to stand up to their malicious opponent.” The Republican Party has been ineffectual in stopping the destruction. The money just keeps flowing from the DC fountain and they benefit by mostly ignoring the horrifying reality. It takes no courage to do the right thing once you recognize the end is near. They are idiots to fear closing down the government when we face economic collapse! 🤑 This is a question not of courage, but integrity.

Stealing with both hands right in front of the citizens they were elected to represent and telling us to pipe down because they’ve made it “legal” to steal your free speech,freedom of movement , private property and money … the backlash when it comes, and it will come ,will be massive and a relief

Except for a few misunderstandings that glare out at me in this post, it's pretty solid. But those misunderstandings are extremely important. Let's take a look at the debt for one...and ask yourself the following question after the FED statement...

"The Federal Government, with the cooperation of the Federal Reserve, has the inherent power to create money--almost any amount of it."

~ The National Debt, Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, p. 8

ALMOST? Why only ALMOST? What keeps them from creating ALL they want? You? Me? Your dog? A full moon?

Federal Reserve Notes are not federal, represent no monetary reserves and no longer conform to the definition of notes. Failing to state who, will pay what, when or to whom - they ceased to be legal tender notes, (offers of money) almost 60 years ago. They are in fact instruments of legalized THEFT.

"...Keynes argues that inflation is a 'method of taxation' which the government uses to 'secure the command over real resources, resources just as real as those obtained by [ordinary] taxation'. 'What is raised by printing notes, ' he writes, is just as much taken from the public as is a beer duty or an income tax.' "

- 1980 Annual Report, Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, pg 10

"All the paper money issued today is Federal Reserve notes. The real backing for the nation's money is faith in the strength, soundness and stability of the American economy."

~ The Hats the Federal Reserve Wears, Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, pg 4

Faith is what backs our monetary system. YOUR faith. Do you still have faith?

"When plunder has become a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it."

~ Frederic Bastiat in "The Law"

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the capitalist system was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation,

governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens."

~ 1980 Annual Report, Federal Reserve

Bank of Richmond, pg 6

Isn't confiscation of the wealth of the citizens a nice way of saying STEALING?

"Whenever the legislators endeavor to take away and destroy the property of the people, or to reduce them to slavery under arbitrary power, they put themselves into a state of war with the people, who are thereupon absolved from any further obedience." ~ John Locke (1690)

If the money you earn has no value and you are forced through fiat paper legislation to take it for your labor, are you not having your property (labor) destroyed and are you not being reduced to nothing but slavery? Is not the state at war with the people?

5th Plank Communist Manifesto: Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.

The Federal Reserve System, created by the Federal Reserve Act of Congress in 1913, is indeed such a “national bank” and it politically manipulates interest rates and holds a monopoly on legal counterfeiting in the United States. This is exactly what Marx had in mind and completely fulfills this plank, another major socialist objective. Yet, most Americans naively believe the U.S. of A. is far from a Marxist or socialist nation.

"The writers of the constitution knew exactly what they were doing when they wrote in Article I Section 10 paragraph 1 'No state shall... make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts. ' People able to barter with gold and silver coin control government and are free. Loss of the right to trade in gold and silver coin enslaves people to the creators of psychological 'money.'":

-Merrill Jenkins, Sr.,

Money - The Greatest Hoax on Earth

If you can explain to me what the national debt is IN, I'll send you 100 pounds free of charge and even pay shipping.

I keep thinking about UBI and how it just doesn’t work if it comes from taxes but might actually work if the Fed simply issued it directly to the Living People. I remember seeing somewhere that $1 of consumer spending stimulates $1.67 in economic activity as it trickles up through the economy. So, maybe that’s a viable option and would ultimately stabilize the economy based on population levels.

Courageous Lion's avatar

So what you are saying is that the UBI for "some people" won't be paid for by the rest of us? Actually it will because the more fake money in circulation the higher prices for goods and services. And if you can get a UBI for just sitting on your ass, you can bet more people will be sitting on their asses. Free market capitalism which hasn't existed for over 100 years needs to come back in vogue. Gold and silver coin as money needs to come back in vogue. Please peruse my stack for some real red pills.

You very accurately described the crimes and depredations of many jews, without once naming the group they all hail from.

Certain groups have a propensity for corruption. jews own the American money supply, via the (so called) Federal Reserve. They are 80% of the Biden White House key administrative roles. They lead the LGBTQ+ movements. Created Communism and Feminism. HIAS and other jewish NGOs lead the open borders bullshit. Have vastly higher incidences of degeneracy/pederasty and are the most expelled people in HUMAN history.

Tell me again how you can ignore the primary problem?

Again, you wrote very articulately, and chronicled our problems well... Why won't the media tell us the real issues? They too, are 96% jewish, in the JUSA.

M Blacksmith's avatar

No. Your premise is false nazi propaganda. If Jews control the money supply, how would such a people have higher rates of degeneracy? If someone controlled the money supply, it would take an incredible amount of intellect to accomplish. That is not a sign of degeneracy. Also, Stalin, Mao, Castro, and Pol Pot were not Jewish. And they were responsible for the deaths of 100 million people.

Epstein was a billionaire pedophile. You express not an iota of logic. Stalin, Mao, Castro and Pol Pot were using the ideology taught to them by one Karl Mordecai Marx, the son of a Rabbi. Mao was trained by Israel Epstein, and a cadre of jewish Marxists. So was Mandela. Tel Aviv is both the gayest city on Earth, and houses the most pedophiles. The Federal Reserve is a private banking consortium, that has been "led" by 80% jewish Fed Chairmen.

Sophomoric.
