ORIGINAL: subfever No one is interested in this loony, fringe, tin-hat, "sky-is-falling" conspiracy theorist crapola. Everyone knows that your cite-source is just another pot smoking, libertarian gold bug site. If our monetary system is so bad, how did we manage to build a world-class empire with it? The entire free world values our money! So what if the Fed has recently created a few more trillion dollars? They wouldn't have been in charge for the past 96 years if they didn't know exactly what they're doing. Anyone with half a brain knows that they have the best interests of the citizenry at heart. When are you going to set your mind straight, and fall into the left vs. right paradigm along with the rest of us? Besides, if you don't fall into line, you'll eventually be ostracized... assuming that you haven't been already. Remember, the majority can't possibly be wrong. Consider this: while the left and right are at war, like good Americans, strengthening the checks and balances that are so important to our country's well-being... you continue to peddle abstract fantasies designed by those who hate our freedom and seek to weaken the very fabric of our society. Whether an issue is cause or whether it is effect isn't nearly as important as honoring and respecting the traditional institutions that have made this country so great. God bless America! Subfever, Everyone who has been a member of CM for more than 28 minutes is aware that PaHunk's posts tend towards extremism on occasion....they're also equally clear that he has occasionally a less than fully informed data stream, but he also listens when corrected. He happens to be, however, in this case, more than somewhat correct, even as his "facts" may be slightly jaded. His opine is one of many who believe the Fed to be unconstitutional, corrupt, base, illegal....etc....ad infinitum. There's a few decent arguments for this....politics and (your) flag waving rarely fill the bill. The truth is, the Fed has corrupted the money supply since its inception. There are multitude (valid, well thought out) youtube videos (assembled by increasingly concerned and somewhat rational people), certainly thousands of websites (www.shadowstats.com would be a great beginning point) for you to peruse. Don't be terribly concerned by your own (current) lack of knowledge....be concerned by the fact that you....(hopefully until this very moment) haven't actually given a shit enough to care about your future to dig deep enough to find out that you may have been lied to (tremendously)...and that this post may possibly be enough of a wake up call for you to: a) Consider that you may have been wrong (even on an infintesimal level)...and... b) To possibly take a look outside of your own current belief systems long enough to say "ya know what....everyone has something to offer....even those who offer things I don't subscribe to". This point in history might just be an interesting time to consider some new information. (Just a thought).
