instead of dropping a bunch of garbled issues that people only have half the fact to back up. write something constructive and concise, then apply to be a contributor on the site.
Under the Constitution, Article I, Sec. 8, our government has the sovereign power to issue money and spend it into circulation to promote the general welfare, for example, through the creation and repair of infrastructure, including human infrastructure – health and education – rather than misusing the money system for speculation as banking has historically done; periodically causing one crisis after another. Our lawmakers must now reclaim that power!
Money has value because of skilled people, resources, and infrastructure, working together in a supportive social and legal framework. Money is the indispensable lubricant that lets them “run.” It is not tangible wealth in itself, but a power to obtain wealth. Money is an abstract social power based in law; and whatever government accepts in payment of taxes will be money. Money’s value is not created by the private corporations that now control it. As Aristotle wrote: “Money exists not by nature but by law.”
Private money creation through “fractional reserve” banking fosters an unprecedented concentration of wealth which destroys the democratic process and ultimately promotes military imperialism. Less than 1% of the population now claims ownership of almost 50% of the wealth, but vital infrastructure is ignored. The American Society of Civil Engineers gives a D grade to our infrastructure and says it will soon be a D-; and estimates that $2.2 trillion is needed to bring it to safe levels over the next 5 years!
That fact alone shows the world’s dominant money system to be a major failure crying for reform.
Infrastructure repair would provide quality employment throughout the nation. There is a pretense that government must either borrow or tax to get the money for such projects. But it is well enough known that the government can directly create the money needed and spend it into circulation for such projects, without inflationary results. A reformed monetary/banking system can make this happen NOW!

There is a whole page on my Web Site Dedicated to Goldman Sachs Fraud...
You might also want to research the History of the 'Carlyle Group'.. changed from the name 'Black Water'.. Begun By Prescott Bush.. ( Geo. Senior's Dad..)... and how they had a 10 Million Dollar Investor.. Osama ben Ladden...in the 1990's. .. How he was Still an investor of the Fl. Based Group while on the Run.
You might want to see too the article about JEB BUSH in a an old MoJo ( Mother Jones) exposing Jeb's and Ned's involvement with the S&L scandle.. "Bush Family Values"
Then.. you might want to Check out how Hank Paulson went to Meet the CEO of Goldman Sachs ,Blankfein in Russia on the Eve of getting the TARP!.. He was in Violation of the law in doing so.. Let alone a Total In your Face America.. Criminal! You might want to check out ... Obama's guy.. Larry Summers..
"In December 1991, while at the World Bank, Summers signed a memo that was leaked to the press. Lant Pritchett has claimed authorship of the private memo, which both he and Summers say was intended as sarcasm.
"The memo stated that "the economic logic behind dumping a load of toxic waste in the lowest wage country is impeccable and we should face up to that.... I've always thought that under-populated countries in Africa are vastly underpolluted."___Larry Summers..
Now When does THAT kind of humor have any other 'Intention' than what it was Clearly stated in form, and thought?
Names? We Have a Million of 'em!
lol. i know all about Prescott,the Muslim brotherhood, and Carlyle. the relationship was formed under the Nazi regime between Prescott(investments in Nazi munitions, 1933 coup) and the Muslim brotherhood(mid-eastern spy ring for Hitler in exchange for running the brits out of their land), and the Carlyle group is the modern progression of that relationship. :) but this is unproductive to chase.
Richard.. it's History.. and History always warns us of repetition, if not kept in check with awareness.. These are THE Definitive Names, along with the membership of 'Bilderberg'... ( Once thought to be a 'Non-Reality').. That have Brought us to where we are today.. Nice to have the names and Faces of these Criminals as we ..Beat the Street!
Take Care, Marlow
the fact is, if you look, it is already being dealt with. why do you think the right is freak'n out. the first thing obama did when he came to office was cut funding going to dictators in the muslim brotherhood(Arab spring). one of bush's military advisers was found dead in a dump almost a year ago. obama has limited what resources get used for military action and handed lybia to nato, this is starving the carlyle group. if you look for the evidence, it's all there. the old guard is falling apart :)
ok... ok... Calm down Kate!.. I am not merely bringing up ONE name, or it's Issues ... I have included a few Other names and issues i thought would be of interest here...
yes but just because those names are linked does not give a clear view of whats happening. some of those names are on the good side of the fight. you could find regan associated with russia, but he was not in advocating for the soviet union.
thx for any participation
