The interviewer blew this opportunity. He clearly doesn’t understand that Mr. Stark repeatedly made statements based on fact regarding our monetary supply / system. By not understanding exactly what Mr. Stark was saying, he failed to take the opportunity to further enlighten his viewers that while Mr. Stark may be correct about our present system, that doesn’t mean it is Constitutional, or safe for the Republic.

Did you actually listen to the interview? Stark made the statement, near the beginning of the interview, that the higher the level of national debt, the more wealthy the US is. This is ABSURDLY FALSE.

Oh yes, I did listen. Mr. Stark is tying the money supply to the debt that is created when bringing the money supply into existence. He is exactly correct that under our current system the “wealth” (money supply) of the Nation is exactly equal to our “debt” (associated with the creation of money out if thin air). By his definition, increasing the debt means that the wealth had to have increased. All of this is factual.

The interviewer failed to continue to allow Mr. Stark to make these statements and then take him to task over who benefits from this system, how politicians use the system as a bottomless revolving line of credit to fund endless entitlement programs that concentrate power into the hands of a few, and how the whole thing is simply un-Constitutional.
