Default why bankers rule the world

It's the interest, stupid!

I thought I had heard it all, until I stumbled onto this fine article by economist Ellen Brown.

Not to be missed!

In gaffe-speak, "bankers" means "Jews".

Our government still has the power to issue debt-free money like we did under Lincoln and JFK.

Dennis Kucinich has a three step plan:
  1. Incorporate the Federal Reserve System into the U.S. Treasury where all new money is created by government as money, not interest-bearing debt, and spent into circulation to promote the general welfare; monitored to be neither inflationary nor deflationary.
  2. Halt the banks' privilege to create money by ending the fractional reserve system in a gentle and elegant way. All the past monetized private credit is converted into U.S. government money. Banks then act as intermediaries accepting savings deposits and loaning them out to borrowers; what people think they do now.
  3. Spend new money into circulation on infrastructure, including education and healthcare needed for a growing society, starting with the $3 trillion that the American Institute of Architects estimate is needed for infrastructure repair (roads, bridges, railroads, water systems, sewer systems, etc.); creating good jobs across the nation, re-invigorating local economies and re-funding government at all levels.

They don't do that any more, now they get themselves appointed leader of governments such as was the case in Italy & Greece.

It is also false. One of the whistleblowers featured in my latest book Black 9/11 is a Jewish banker named Bill Bergman.

Bergman worked at the Chicago Fed for 14 years -- until he was fired for asking probing questions about 9/11.

Bergman contacted me to tell me his story -- after reading one of my papers on line. He has been very supportive of my research and wants a new 9/11 investigation - since in his words "we have not been told the full truth."

IMO US immigration policy and border enforcement is primarily set by those in position to make a great financial windfall by bringing in people from such desperate straits that it makes it very easy to exploit them by paying them much lesser wages than an American can work for.

You cannot be pro-worker and pro-amnesty at the same time, neither can you pretend that you cannot enact and enforce legal measures to encourage self-deportation, and this condemnation is aimed at both parties.

In the end, profit and vote-purchasing of these prospective amnestied Americans are clearly the motivation for those at the top, and the American worker is being trodden underfoot as a result.

But yes, the primary culprits in this scheme are now Democrats.

Does he agree with your red-mercury-powered-pure-fusion-mini-nukes nano-thermite controlled demolition of the WTC "theory"? Does he agree that the US government is actually the ZOG? Does he know that you won't tell us how many Jews died in the Holocaust? Does he know that you think Venus is a comet ejected from Jupiter in Old Testament times?

How would this actually be put into play? A bill?

No -- you are just a common run of the mill jerk.

Bergman can speak for himself. Why don't you ask him?

You're a run-of-the-mill Jew-hater who styles himself a "peace activist", with a Messiah complex and serious mental health issues.

Just 4% of all House of Representatives bills in 2009–2010 were enacted.

Thanks for the link!

It allows you to write to congressman to support the bill. It takes maybe a handful of mouse clicks and then you can support or oppose it.

Thanks, Gaff, that article was a good read. I've been fascinated by the concept of North Dakota's state bank since I first heard of it, and this gave a little more information. Last week I voted for the only State Treasurer candidate who mentioned establishing a state bank here in Oregon. I hope the idea catches on in more places.

If you liked the piece by Ellen Brown -- you might be interested to learn the following.

Please sign a petition urging Obama to name her to his council of economic advisers.
MHG


Dear Public Banking Supporters:

We need a Main Street Economist who advocates for public banks on President Obama's Council of Economic Advisors. Who better to be this person than Ellen Brown, Chair of the Public Banking Institute and author of Web of Debt?

Please help promote public banking by signing this petition (see link below) requesting President Obama to nominate Ellen Brown to the Council of Economic Advisors. With over 100 articles on this subject alone, Ellen has earned the right to contribute her views on public banking as part of this preeminent council.

Encourage your friends/family to support this as well. If they ask you what public banking is, tell them that it is the way Germany is funding its solar installations in order to end its reliance on nuclear power; it is the way that Japan provides a mechanism for long term savings; and, it is the way that New Zealand provides low cost banking services through its post offices.

Public banking is what we can do to counteract the artificial scarcity imposed on our country by Wall Street banks.

We only have a few weeks to make this happen -- you can make a difference by adding your name to this! Please sign:

http://signon.org/sign/president-oba...ailing_id=6823

Don't forget to spread the word on Facebook and/or Twitter!

For more information be sure to sign up for our monthly newsletter at www.publicbankinginstitute.org. Thank you for your support for public banking.

Marc Armstrong
Executive Director
Public Banking Institute
