A total whitewash, but still worth watching. We’re supposed to believe that the central banking cartel, which more than any other institutions created and administered the economic meltdown and become even more powerful as a result, are reluctant beneficiaries of the fallout, dutifully stepping into the mess to clean up after the politicians. Unbelievably, militantly naive. At least someone is talking about their existence. But if you want some reality, check out http://www.wanttoknow.info/articles/tragedy_hope_banking_money_history
The military industrial complex is only a satellite of the heart of the beast, the real masters of war, the central banking cartel. Their business model is simple: bribe, blackmail and murder their way into being allowed to print money out of nothing, “loan” it to their respective governments and charge those governments interest on the loans, with the IRS or similar agencies being given supra-constitutional powers to collect taxes to pay the interest. Once a private corporation is given such power, one of their their profit maximization strategies is to ensure that the government goes into greater and greater debt. The fastest way to increase government debt is through war. Wars can be readily arranged given enough time and money. And if the war is won, the monetary domain of that central bank expands, increasing the demand for and value of their paper tokens. But it’s only competition among subsidiaries: there are far more central banks than the number of families which control them. The european based rothschild family is almost certainly the largest shareholder of the federal reserve through its control of the NY fed via its ownership of jpmorgan.
But that’s only part of their toxic business strategy. Since they control the interest rates and supply of money, they can cause boom and bust cycles at will. They invest prior to booms, they bail out before the busts, and they buy real assets for huge discounts during the ensuing depressions. The fact that most of the fed’s “quantitative easing” payments have gone into the vaults of their cronies in high finance means that they are well situated to mop up when the second great depression comes.
Once such a debt-based monetary system is in place, the economic incentives for sustainable long-term investment and development are lost to a constant race with the ongoing (mathematically dictated) devaluation of the currency and the taxes to pay the interest on it. It’s hard to overstate the magnitude of the environmental and social impact of such a system, even without the wars, economic cycles and political corruption. Planned obsolescence is only one consequence. Money becomes nothing more than a tool of mass social control.
But there is an alternative, the constitutional power of congress to “coin” (create) money. The american monetary act (monetary.org) would reclaim our economic rights simply by forcing banks out of the money-creation business and making them act as arbiters between savers and borrowers, as most people think they already do.
The money masters are a hidden aristocracy, as degraded and corrupt and above the law as any inbred medieval “royal” family. And they are leading us straight into hell. See the links near the bottom of the reference section.
and that the public’s increased physical purchases at lower prices show that central bankers still have failed to destroy confidence in gold as superior money:
Gold and silver buyers could soon have to register with the state of Illinois.
Rick Santelli provides an update on legislation that requires every gold and silver transaction to be registered with the State. Here are the basics. The bill, officially called SB-3341, was introduced in 2012, immediately passed the Illinois Senate and is now awaiting action by the House. Click here for the latest status update on SB3341…
Do you feel the chain around your ankle? That’s called federal reserve notes. This is the central bankers’ business model: “Loan” money created out of nothing to governments which agree to hold their citizens liable for payment of the “debt,” then bribe, blackmail or murder enough politicians to ensure the government maintains a perpetual budget deficit. Perpetual war generates massive amounts of government debt, while having the added benefits of expanding the domain of the central bank’s currency and being able to demonize dissent as being unpatriotic.
The real kicker here is that the founders knew all about this issue. That’s why the constitution explicitly gave congress the right to “coin” (i.e. create) money. All this history has been lost from conventional american schooling. Time to rediscover our roots. Check out monetary.org.
We’re now borrowing to pay interest on what we’ve already borrowed.
In a decade, federal spending to pay for the interest on America’s debt will exceed total spending on the defense budget by $125 billion, or 20 percent, according to CBO. In fact, the interest payments are likely to be even higher, since these assumptions are based on the historically low interest rates remaining the same, which is not likely over the course of the next decade. ”If interest rates rise just 1% point above baseline projections, the government would pay an additional $1 trillion in interest payments over ten years.”
Overall, Obama’s budget would increase federal spending 58% – from a budget size of $3.6 trillion today to $5.9 trillion in 2022.
Officially, since June 2009 the US economy has been undergoing an economic recovery from the December 2007 recession. But where is this recovery? I cannot find it, and neither can millions of unemployed Americans.
The recovery exists only in the official measure of real GDP, which is deflated by an understated measure of inflation, and in the U.3 measure of the unemployment rate, which is declining because it does not count discouraged job seekers who have given up looking for a job.
No other data series indicates an economic recovery. Neither real retail sales nor housing starts, consumer confidence, payroll employment, or average weekly earnings indicate economic recovery.
Neither does the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy. The Fed’s expansive monetary policy of bond purchases to maintain negative real interest rates continues 3.5 years into the recovery. Of course, the reason for the Fed’s negative interest rates is not to boost the economy but to boost asset values on the books of “banks too big to fail.”
The low interest rates raise the prices of the mortgage-backed derivatives and other debt-related assets on the banks’ balance sheets at the expense of interest income for retirees on their savings accounts, money market funds, and Treasury bonds.
Despite recovery’s absence and the lack of job opportunities for Americans, Republicans in Congress are sponsoring bills to enlarge the number of foreigners that corporations can bring in on work visas. The large corporations claim that they cannot find enough skilled Americans. This is one of the most transparent of the constant stream of lies that we are told.
Foreign hires are not additions to the work force, but replacements. The corporations force their American employees to train the foreigners, and then the American employees are discharged. Obviously, if skilled employees were in short supply, they would not be laid off. Moreover, if the skills were in short supply, salaries would be bid up, not down, and the 36% of those who graduated in 2011 with a doctorate degree in engineering would not have been left unemployed. The National Science Foundation’s report, “Doctorate Recipients From U.S. Universities,” says that only 64% of the Ph.D. engineering graduates found a pay check.
As I have reported on numerous occasions for many years, neither the payroll jobs statistics nor the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ job projections show job opportunities for university graduates. But this doesn’t stop Congress from helping US corporations get rid of their American employees in exchange for campaign donations.
There was a time not that long ago when US corporations accepted that they had obligations to their employees, customers, suppliers, the communities in which they were located, and to their shareholders. Today they only acknowledge obligations to shareholders. Everyone else has been thrown to the wolves in order to maximize profits and, thereby, shareholders’ capital gains and executive bonuses.
By focusing on the bottom line at all costs, corporations are destroying the US consumer market. Offshoring jobs reduces labor costs and raises profits, but it also reduces domestic consumer income, thus reducing the domestic market for the corporation’s products. For awhile the reduction in consumer income can be filled by the expansion of consumer debt, but when consumers reach their debt limit sales cannot continue to rise. The consequence of jobs offshoring is the ruination of the domestic consumer market. …
Arizona may become the second state, after Utah, to recognize gold and silver as legal tender authorized for payments of debts and taxes.
The Arizona Senate voted Thursday to approve SB 1439 which allows businesses and the state government to accept payments in gold or silver.
The Legal Tender bill specifies that legal tender in Arizona consists of all of the following:
1. Legal Tender authorized by Congress.
2. Specie (containing gold or silver) coin issued at any time by the U.S. government.
3. Any other specie that a court of competent jurisdiction rules by a final, unappealable order to be within the scope of state authority to make legal tender.
Currently all debts and taxes in Arizona and the rest of the United States are either paid with Federal Reserve Notes (dollars) which were authorized as legal tender by Congress, or with coins issued by the U.S. Treasury — very few of which have gold or silver in them.
Although Article 1, Section 10 of the United States Constitution states that no state shall coin money; the same section stipulates that no state shall make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts. In that regard the sponsors of bill feel that it will simply respect the use of gold and silver as per the Constitution without “coining” its own money.
The law also exempts taxing the exchange of gold and silver into any other currency, and states that gold and silver as legal tender would not be “subject to tax or regulation as property other than money.”
S.B. 1439 is legislation modeled after Utah’s which was the first to pass and be signed into law. Several other states have introduced similar measures motivated by the dollar instability caused by the Federal Reserve’s recent monetary policies.
Gold and silver have historically held their value compared to unstable dollars. The value of the U.S. dollar has plummeted 98% against gold in the last 100 years since the Federal Reserve took over as the U.S. central bank in 1913.
As the Federal Reserve continues debase the currency through persistent quantitative easing, many more states may be looking to cushion themselves against further declines by legalizing competing currencies like gold and silver in the near future.
Arizona’s S.B. 1439 must still pass in the State House and be signed by Governor Jan Brewer before becoming law.
Hi, I’m Kurt. I’m one of the founders of Thought Crime Radio. This is a radio program on KOPN in Mid-Missouri and its also a website, thoughtcrimeradio.net. These days there are many different issues that concern us. Issues such as the economy, the national debt, veterans rights, the never-ending war on terror, 9/11 truth, human rights, obstetrical abuse, environmentalism, chemical trails in the sky, GMO foods, education, gun violence, the psychiatric drugging of children, 2nd amendment rights, racism, sexism, terrorism, mass media consolidation, government corruption, illegal drug trade, high unemployment, corporate power, pollution, wall street bailouts, the housing crisis and so many other issues. But there is something that ties all these issues together. All of these issues are caused by a single source of corruption. All of the troubles of our world are the symptoms of a single disease. Only by dealing with the disease itself can its symptoms be alleviated. I know this sounds extraordinary, but it’s true. There is a single source to all of the world’s major problems. That single source must be addressed or all of these problems will get worse. Before I explain that source let me define the word meme. It’s derived from the greek word mimene, which means to mimic. In a sense a meme is like a gene which holds the information to build and maintain a living cell. But a meme is a set of ideas that once transmitted are then duplicated by another person.These ideas come to shape the attitude and behavior of that person. A meme spreads from person to person within a culture. A meme is an informational unit that spreads cultural values and patterns of behaviors. If it spreads successfully, a meme will create a new paradigm or pattern of behavior within a culture. However, if such a meme is toxic it then becomes like a viral infection. A toxic meme is to society what a virus is to a physical body. Just as a virus can spread physical sickness, a meme can spread cultural insanity. And there is a meme that is the single source of the worse corruption in our world culture. That single source is the Illuminati doctrine. This is a set of ideas and political strategies created by Adam Weishaupt. He was a well educated man who lived in Europe in the 1700s. He drew his ideas from the study of history and philosophy. The word Illuminati refers to the Illuminated ones. These are people who believe that they have been given secret knowledge that makes them superior to others. On May 1st, 1776 the Bavarian Illuminati were founded. They were funded by European aristocrats seeking a way to achieve global conquest. This was to begin with the overthrowing of the Bavarian government. But their plan was disclosed and they were officially disbanded. However, Weishaupt’s writings became widely published as a result. The ideas of Adam Weishaupt were always more dangerous than the man himself. And these ideas spread like a disease. Powerful men, such as the Rothschild banking family, realized that they could use these ideas to gain even greater power. A few years after the prototype Bavarian Illuminati were disbanded, other new Illuminati groups were founded. On October 24th, 1798, President George Washington, wrote a letter to a friend. In it he talked about the dangers of the Illuminati doctrine. He linked the Illuminati doctrine to the Jacobin movement of the French Revolution. These Jacobin fanatics hijacked the French Revolution and created a reign of terror. Often using guillotines, they slaughtered 40,000 innocent people. They brought France into ruin. In the wake of this ruin, Napoleon came into power. The Rothschild banking family financed all sides of the Napoleonic wars and became wealthy and powerful as a result. This abuse of power was the first application of the Illuminati doctrine. All I have just told you are facts of history that can be easily verified. However, the curse of the Illuminati doctrine didn’t end with the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo. Any ideology that can bring wealth and power to international bankers is not going to be forgotten. This ideological meme was accepted by other aristocrats who understood its power. And so it spread like a disease throughout the culture of aristocracy around the world. Even the famous mason, Albert Pike recognized the spread of the Illuminati doctrine into other early secret societies associated with the enlightenment. The occultist Aleister Crowley referred to Adam Weishaupt as the head of the temple. The Illuminati recruited the freemason Vladimir Lenin, and he used Weishaupt’s ideas to foment the revolution in Russia. This Illuminati doctrine is still a curse upon our modern world. So it must be understood. Only by understanding the Illuminati doctrine can this disease be eliminated. The first principle of the Illuminati doctrine is that the average human being is inclined toward evil rather than good. This is a very important point because it describes a basic world view. The Illuminati doctrine states that ordinary people can’t be trusted to govern themselves. This idea is the foundation for everything that the ruling elite do. Adam Weishaupt was funded by wealthy aristocrats who considered themselves superior to the peasants over which they ruled. The aristocratic belief in their own superiority was a delusion. But it was the typical attitude common to the European aristocrats of that time. The idea that all human beings are inclined toward evil justifies the enslavement of all humanity under the rule of the so called Illuminated ones. The Bavarian Illuminati recruited men from wealthy families. These men were subjected to cultic mind control. It is a characteristic of all cults that their members learn to see all outsiders as inferior. Once indoctrinated into the Illuminati system, these young men learned to feel contempt for anyone not a part of their order. Weishaupt’s doctrine encouraged the infiltration of Masonic lodges. The Illuminati wanted to recruit men who were well educated and idealistic. Another foundation of the Illuminati doctrine is to preach idealistic principles. They claim that their purpose is to create a utopian society. They claim that their goals are equality and world peace. This provides the moral justification for committing any acts of crime or immorality to accomplish these goals. So in the name of world peace they create wars. So in the name of equality that create social injustice. Adam Weishaupt claimed that any and all means were justified in creating their eventual utopian world government. But in the end, all of these ideals are betrayed. The Illuminati doctrine is merely a series of tactics used by global criminals. But these criminals talk of an idealistic utopia and they are well educated men. So they aren’t like common criminals who tend to easily betray one another. This Illuminati is a fellowship of elite globalists who believe that their criminality is morally justified by their idealism. Another foundational principle of the Illuminati doctrine is that they must remain invisible until they have become so powerful that no one can stand against them. This is a strategy of complete covert action. Any initiated member attempting to violate their secrecy would be severely punished. The Illuminati believe that their justification to rule arises from their attainment of worldly power. In other words, might makes right. Their power comes from their own force, not from the consent of the people. In the end the Illuminati intend to destroy all of we call civilization. The family unit, all religions, all regional cultures, all national governments. These all must be eliminated so the Illuminati can create their all powerful one world government. On this philosophical foundation they apply a series of tactics. These were described in letters written by Weishaupt in the 1700s. But such tactics can be seen in today’s world. One tactic is that they use the idea of freedom to bring about a class war. That was certainly used in the French Revolution. It was used in the Russian revolution. The strategy of the Illuminati is to divide and conquer. They encourage the conflict between groups. A secret third party influence encourages two groups of people to attack one another. We see this today. Israel versus Palestine. America versus the terrorists. Republicans versus the Democrats. Whites supremacists versus the civil rights workers. When one positive social movement arises, a negative social movement is created to challenge it. Our present world is divided into conflicting groups and this is not an accident. Illuminati instigators are hired to secretly infiltrate social organizations. These conflicts are deliberately engineered. The Illuminati believe in using propaganda to control the masses. Control of the news media is an Illuminati tactic described in the 1700s by Weishaupt. The nazi propaganda machine was a perfect realization of Illuminati indoctrination. In the modern world, electronic media has now placed the public into a near hypnotic state. Any lie can be sold to the public by those who control the media. If you are aware of 9/11 truth then you understand how far this can be taken. This media control not only spreads misinformation, it also befuddles the minds of the population. The Illuminati believe in using false teachings to confuse the public. They believe in promoting the use of drugs and alcohol. They promote a general encouragement of decadence. This decay of moral values weakens society. A weakened society can be more easily overthrown. They believe in using sexual seduction and blackmail to control political leaders. The original Bavarian Illuminati used such techniques in their failed attempt to take over Bavaria. The many scandals that we see in contemporary Washington DC are only the tip of the iceberg. Illuminati bribery and blackmail guarantee that our politicians no longer serve the will of the people. In controlling the politicians, the actions of a nation can be guided. Weishaupt said that wars should be fought to place nations in permanent debt, and that peace conferences should be used to undermine national sovereignty. These tactics can certainly be seen in our present world. The Illuminati doctrine states that scarcity of all kinds should be created. Hunger, unemployment, shortages and deprivation are to be engineered. The idea is that you create public chaos and then you bring in Illuminati agents to restore order. A Washington politician was recently quoted as saying, “No crisis should go to waste.” This is an Illuminati attitude. After restoring order in the wake of the crisis, which they themselves have created, such Illuminati agents then become public heroes. But in restoring order they take away the rights of the citizens. The people are then made to become dependent upon handouts from the state. The welfare state becomes a method for controlling the masses. The government always becomes more powerful as the rights of the people are continually lessened. The Illuminati doctrine encourages the development of a police state. Weishaupt stated that police are to use street fighting techniques to subdue social resistance. The agent provocateur is an Illuminati tactic. This is where a police agent infiltrates a non-violent group and encourages its members to become violent. This then justifies police violence against that group. The Illuminati doctrine also promoted the idea of an all powerful philosopher King. The concept of a philosopher King goes back to Plato’s Republic. But this Philosopher King is really a dictator. He appoints his ministers. These are to be men programmed in the Illuminati doctrine. They are to create centralized state control. They use high taxes and monopolies to put power into the hands of a few. Once you have a country controlled by the Illuminati you can then use its wealth to create military dominance. Eventually, in this way, all nations of the world are brought under Illuminati control. Then a council of world leaders, under a philosopher King, are to rule the world. To quote Weishaupt “The advisors will have been bred, reared, and trained from childhood to rule the affairs of the world.” It’s no coincidence that May Day, May 1st, was a communist holiday. If you want a perfect example of an Illuminati society it would have been the former Soviet Union. How it was taken over and how it was run were pure Illuminati doctrine. But it isn’t just a matter of socialism, those that call themselves capitalists are just as corrupt. Bailouts for wealthy corporations that are too big to fail is also pure Illuminati. The fall of the Iron Curtain didn’t end the Illuminati, it merely demonstrated the ultimate failure of the Illuminati doctrine. Any society based on the Illuminati doctrine cannot help but to fail in the end. Unfortunately the Illuminati doctrine has become the basis of our present global society. The 99% is ruled by the 1% through the application of the Illuminati doctrine. But the rulers of our present global community are not are enlightened ones. The Illuminati’s contempt for ordinary people is irrational. The average person isn’t evil. Most people are good by nature. But the Illuminati leaders themselves have become evil and psychotic in their obsession with power. It has been said that all power corrupts and that absolute power corrupts absolutely. This has become the case in our world. The Illuminati doctrine is the philosophy behind all the organizations that dominate the global community. Look at the Fabian Society, Theosophy, the Bilderberg group, the United Nations, the CFR, The Trilateral Commission, the World Bank, The International Monetary Fund, The Federal Reserve, Skull and Bones, The CIA, NATO, The European Union, and so many other globalist groups. The Illuminati should not be thought of as a single organization, but as an interconnected network of groups that are all based on the Illuminati doctrine. In an organic way, since May 1st, 1776, the Illuminati doctrine has spread throughout our world like a disease. This ideological meme, this cultural disease, has sickened our world community. We already have a type of global governance. This global governance is imperfectly manifested through many different groups. However, no matter what they call their particular branch, they are all the Illuminati. But this is no utopian society. On July 4th, 1776 a better model for government was promoted in the Americas. Democracy is the greatest form of government ever devised. But Democracy is being systematically destroyed by the present generation of the Illuminati. They do this in the name of plutocracy and totalitarianism. Their tactics involve criminality. A business man who uses a combination of both criminal methods and legitimate business enterprises has an unfair advantage. The honest business man can’t compete with this Illuminati business model. With their hidden criminality, the Illuminati are destroying all that is good in our world. They aren’t enlightened ones, they’re just another group of brainwashed cult members. They intend to destroy our natural world so that they can create their corporate New World Order. And so far, nobody has been able to defeat them. However, for all their power there is one flaw in their plan. Their original strategy was to remain completely invisible until any resistance became futile. But resistance is not yet futile. An increasing number of people are becoming aware of the toxic globalist agenda. A general public awakening can destroy the Illuminati. But such an awakening is difficult. Mass media outlets have been consolidated into the hands of a few corporations. These corporations are controlled by a small group of Illuminati billionaires. Now the only way that the truth can be spread is through a grassroots movement of dedicated persons. Thoughtcrimeradio.net is an internet resource for research. Even as you listen to this, the walls of your prison are being built around you. But these walls can still be torn down. You are not powerless. Your are more powerful than you think. By doing what you can to teach others the truth, you can help defeat the Illuminati before it’s too late. If you find that Thoughtcrimeradio.net is useful, tell others about it. Spread the word. Thank you for listening. And may God bless you.
The Keiser Report interviews Leah McGrath Goodman about the coverup of child rape and murder occurring at the UK’s offshore tax haven and money laundering center on Jersey Island:
Oh what a difference three decades make. Back in the 1980s, as Japanese companies began buying up prime real estate in the US, and the supremacy of Japanese cars and electronics made it seem like the country’s economic ascendancy was assured, sci-fi visions of the future imagined a United States dominated by Japanese culture, language and business.
Today, the economic stagnation that has gripped the Japanese economy for the past two decades make such visions of the future seem like the naive dreams of a bygone age, much like how futurists of the early 20th century extrapolated from their own time to imagine fleets of dirigibles carrying passengers across the Atlantic. Just as the trend-spotters of the early 20th century were caught off guard by the jet engine, so too were those predicting the rise of an unstoppable Japan caught off guard by the raising of interest rates and the popping of the bubble, the bailout of the banks, the life support of the zombie companies, and the lost decade…
Centralized federal authority is precisely what the constitution prohibits. To summarize: “Trust us or we’ll arrest you.” But the trustworthiness of their “authority” has already been amply demonstrated in their systematic gutting of the US economy, murdering political leaders, importing narcotics, destroying the currency, destroying children’s lives with drugs and vaccines, looting the treasury for the benefit of high-powered wall street gangsters etc etc etc.
They can’t be this stupid. They must be consciously criminal.
Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority, reverent of individual liberty” deemed domestic threat
A new study funded by the Department of Homeland Security characterizes Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority,” and “reverent of individual liberty” as “extreme right-wing” terrorists.
Entitled Hot Spots of Terrorism and Other Crimes in the United States, 1970-2008 (PDF), the study was produced by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism at the University of Maryland. The organization was launched with the aid of DHS funding to the tune of $12 million dollars.
While largely omitting Islamic terrorism - the report fails completely to mention the 1993 World Trade Center bombing – the study focuses on Americans who hold beliefs shared by the vast majority of conservatives and libertarians and puts them in the context of radical extremism.
The report takes its definitions from a 2011 study entitled Profiles of Perpetrators of Terrorism, produced by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism, in which the following characteristics are used to identify terrorists.
- Americans who believe their “way of life” is under attack;
- Americans who are “fiercely nationalistic (as opposed to universal and international in orientation)”;
- People who consider themselves “anti-global” (presumably those who are wary of the loss of American sovereignty);
- Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority”;
- Americans who are “reverent of individual liberty”;
- People who “believe in conspiracy theories that involve grave threat to national sovereignty and/or personal liberty.”
Your tax dollars at work. If distrust of this globalized neofascism is limited to “conservatives and libertarians” then I have to ask “where the hell is the left” for gods sake.
BTW: Paul Watson knows the 1993 WTC bombing was an FBI operation. Not sure why he omitted that little detail.
