They haven’t needed OUR “money” for over 100 years!
I watched Ted Cruz during his valiant effort to halt the disaster called Obamacare. I hope you watched it as well. If he used it once, he used the phrase “...we no longer listen to the people, our constituents...” over a hundred times. And he was right...they don’t. And the fact is, THEY NO LONGER NEED TO.
I’ve posted my little rant on this topic before but Ted’s honest comment compels me to do so again.
*************
WHY THE POLITICAL RULING CLASS NO LONGER LISTENS TO US!
“When the servants of the people are paid with something other than that which the people themselves have produced (i.e. the real, tangible products of their labors or some fixed and real medium of that exchange), the roles of master and servant will be reversed.”
That was Thomas Jefferson warning that the financial disaster we now face would be but one of many problems paper money would visit upon us if we allowed our “leaders” to remove the backing from the currency.
It was believed by Roger Sherman and a majority of those at the Constitutional Convention that unbacked fiat currency would so damage the fabric of the nation that they ATTEMPTED to prohibit it with these few words at Article 1, Section 10, requiring the states to enforce the prohibition: “No State shall…make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts;”
If the people and their states grew inattentive to this matter (and they have!), Jefferson also saw another problem ahead.
In a letter to John Taylor in 1816, he wrote, “And I sincerely believe, with you, that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies; and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling futurity on a large scale.”
We have been “…swindling futurity…” for a long time and this is now where we find ourselves. If the government, through its banker masters at the Federal Reserve, can create “money” from thin air, they certainly don’t need ours every April 15th. That annual sheep shearing is simply an attempt to vacuum enough of the excess paper from the system to keep the rest of us from catching on to the biggest theft ring in the history of man. They have now created so much that their attempt is failing and failing badly to a point where all but the dullest among us (Obama voters and his growing cadres of personal and corporate welfare beneficiaries) are starting to “get it.”
If you understood that last paragraph, you can now make the small leap to an understanding as to why the “progressive” utopian welfare state hacks in Washington don’t give a damn WHAT you think. Their power to create all the “money” they need to fuel their infernal machine and fill the gaping maws of enough of those growing hoards of welfare constituents to assure their perpetual re-election means that — ready — THEY NO LONGER NEED YOU! They have become, as Mr. Jefferson predicted, our MASTERS.
And this is for you who believe that we’re ALL equally screwed under this dishonest, fraudulent fiat money system: Inflation DOES NOT impact everyone at the same time and level. THOSE WHO GET THEIR HANDS ON THAT “MONEY” FIRST – BEFORE THE INFLATION ERODES ITS VALUE – SUFFER FAR LESS THAN THOSE OF US FURTHER DOWN THE FOOD CHAIN. THINK ABOUT IT (unless you’re an obama voter, in which case, let us know how you FEEL about that).
We won’t have even a CHANCE at an honest government until we again have HONEST MONEY.
That they are taking down a nation and a system that has provided more wealth, safety and abundance to more people than any other in history matters not to them. Failing to grasp the lesson of the French Revolution, they believe themselves to be above the impending disaster.
We’re running out of time to get this increasingly rapacious beast back into the cage from which we have carelessly allowed it to escape.

PS: I was a 3 year member of the national board of CATS (Citizens for an Alternative Tax System), the precursor to the current Fair Tax organization. I fully support the concept of a CONSUMPTION TAX over the current Marxist INCOME TAX. That said, UNTIL WE GET BACK TO HONEST “MONEY”, WERE REARRANGING DECK CHAIRS ON A SINKING SHIP.
PPS: A word about the brilliance of this scheme hatched in 1913 by the elites: Economics is called “the dismal science” for a reason. Freepers are a pretty sharp group, and most who get this far will grasp the importance of getting back to a Constitutionally sound money system. But hand this to the “guy on the street” and his eyes will glaze over, he’d start drooling before he hit the third paragraph, throw it down, declare you crazy and stomp off in search of a much needed drink. We can’t solve a problem until more of us recognize that there IS ONE!
Too funny; the cops know there is no winner in that scenario. When I was younger a cop told me that they no longer rushed to domestic disturbances, because if you arrested one of them the other would jump you (and this was with white people). He said they took their time about it, so they only had to deal with one person (the loser)...
So if grand jury testimony is leaked to leftists, does this mean that the leftists can call for a mistrial in that laws were broken leaking the information?
Johannes Mehserle shot Oscar Grant in the back in Oakland, was convicted of voluntary manslaughter and the Feds did not indict on civil rights charges.
This was four years ago.
Agreed, the Feds have nothing and the FBI told Holder this.
I’ll address it.
They couldn’t move the body because of how many times there were gunshots in the near area. Or that the livery service was on staged nearby but told by the police not to come in because of the unrest. Unrest to the tune of at least five hundred pissed off people who were barely contained.
The emotionally immature and easily excitable created the whole damn mess, from start to finish.
Still betting on Friday afternoon. . The dems last ploy before the election. . Will it backfire?
Black Freedom Fighters in Ferguson: Some of Us Are Queer

My, what an innocent, cherub faced babe. How could that big, hulking monster be so mean to him? It was him who was just looking to be shot, not the innocent looking, sawed off guy.
There was immediate unrest? The pics showing the assaulted cop and another cop standing around his body seemed to indicate there wasn’t much going on. I can imagine after his body had lain in the street for over three hours that people got pretty pissed.
Yes, within a half hour there were shots being fired around the complex.
People got pissed when that that jackal Anthony Shahid and his puppet Dorian Johnson got on live TV with the whole hands up BS.
“Lies travel halfway around the world while the truth is just putting on it’s shoes.”
Why not announce it Monday evening, just before the elections? Or look around for another White guy to lynch. Any White guy will do.
I was thinking the same thing...They better git to steppin’...
Obama’s plan for chaos in front of next Tuesday, that opportunity is slippin’ away...
Will The President try to diffuse the situation?
He should be starting, like, NOW!
(Actually, he is screaming “Burn Baby Burn” in his mirror)
