		<description>to russ wetherill....responding to your comments from 11/24...just in-case you come back in here to read more replys....fyi..i think when people comment about the &quot;wealthy elite&quot; , they are not referring to those ppl making comfortable 6 figure incomes, but those at the very top that run the financial systems of the world.  

The same families have controlled the central banks for centuries. I urge you to not only research the rothschild and warburg families (and i mean MULTIPLE sources), but to also study on the interventions or attempted interventions into monatary policy by presidents Jackson, Lincoln and Kennedy (and research their comments and quotes on same).

You seem intelligent enough to at least attempt to open your mind on these issues and stop sounding like you are regurgitating neil boortz talking-points.

I&#039;m sure your very proud of your 6 figure income and i&#039;m sure you have worked very hard and sacrificed much to get there, but it sounds like over-estimate your importance in the grand scheme of things...its not because of the likes of you that people are angry ...and if things continue to unravel, as they likely will...just remember...you&#039;re going to be in the same boat with all the &quot;whiners&quot; that you complain about (if they will have you)....because the bankers boats have already sailed.</description>

		<description>I find it unlikely that we can save the country through their manipulated, corrupt electoral system, especially with ANYONE from the two (completely controlled) major parties.  Perot showed us that to even get onto the national stage as a 3rd party candidate you have to be independently wealthy so as to be unbeholding to big campaign contributers.  And even then, we all saw what happened as he gained momentum only to slide back after (obviously) having his and his families lives threatened.  That was just one office also, we would need several hundred in congress as well.  These folks up top working the levels are totally relentless and thats what most people don&#039;t get....they will kill ANYONE who threatens the power structure....not to mention millions of innocents like those in the towers on 911.  
People want to think that we&#039;re (americans) all good at heart and no american would purposely kill other americans...this is part of our social engineering, our brainwashing...we&#039;ll delieve anything they tell us about foriegn govts or leaders, but many americans refuse ti believe any high ranking official in THEIR govt would ever unjustly commit murder or treason.  The politicians, and global elite in this United states have totally turned on the people and it will soon be time to take action, and that action may have to be violent...we may have no choice.</description>

		<description>The elected representatives have stopped listening to the people.  They now have their own agendas. 

There has always been wealth disparity and it will continue to be so. What has truly been happening is that the avenues that create wealth are being choked off by people wanting to preserve their advantage at the cost of the middle class and by the political class that brays at the feet of the wealthy.

The solution is to have people run for office that are actually going to keep the the avenues of wealth building open and the American spirit of being able to overcome obstacles and persevere.

The time to step up is NOW and start building a base, the elections are about 6 months out.

Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence, &quot;But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.&quot;

Nothing states the change has to be violent, but we need a different kind of warrior, one that is skilled the the battle of the minds. We now need these skills in every state legislature and congress and they must be in tune with the American Ideal and the American dream.

The American Ideal is that a man can become as great or as wealthy if he so chooses by the sweat of his brow and the intellect of his mind. In that serving others he can become wealthy. And he can acquire that wealth with out precondition from any governmental body or any &quot;king&quot;. That freedom of opportunity is enough to allow people to become the best that they can be.

If you want a new world order, it started in 1776 and was further refined in 1789.

America is the NEW WORLD ORDER</description>

		<description>Although the above posts here are well-meaning and quite practical during ordinary times, the situation we now find ourselves is beyond repair.  A &quot;stimulus&quot; injection into this economy is like putting a band-aid on a cancer.

The answer to all of this is to join a militia in your area.  Most all of them are non-political, non-racist, and their common goal is strictly self-defense.  This suggestion is not a knee-jerk reaction, based in hysteria, but a well-thought out defensive plan, formulated after years of analysis.  But, make no threats; do nothing even slightly illegal, and just be prepared, watch and wait.  The situation will continue to erode all on its own.

It&#039;s absolutely vital to go into a survivalist mode with times deteriorating as quickly as they are.  The American empire is not only cracking, the society itself is coming apart.  The divide between rich and poor will continue to become greater with each passing month.  

Right along with it will be local, state and federal governments, reluctant to reduce their power bases by operating within budget constraints, getting more and more militant by raising taxes to pay for the governmental monsters they created and grew for so many years of excesses.  They will continue to bilk the public with higher taxes even beyond a citizen&#039;s ability to pay.  Their next acts will be to seize properties to sell to prevent losing any part of their power base.

And there will be many boot and shoot raids for the purpose of physically confiscating personal property so it can be sold to add to governmental revenue totals.

And as we learned from other attacks on the US citizenry in the nineties, the only defense we will have is by banding together in defensive groups all across the country, united by the internet.</description>

		<description>charley, dont forget about Andrew Jackson, who after single-handedly ending the 20 year charter of the SECOND version of the central bank (the US bank: 1816-1836) was attacked by an armed assasin on the street in washington DC and saved only by the fact that the assasins guns misfired.  Jackson then proceeded to blugeon the would-be assasin with his cane.  Of course we don&#039;t get leaders like Jackson and Lincoln in this country anymore because the whole electoral system is controlled by groups like the council of foriegn relations, and manipulated by the corpoorate media machine.  What we get are hand-picked puppets who are completely owned by the global moneymasters.  Kennedy was the last president who truly tried to change things and fight the power structure, and this might have been due to the fact that HIS controller, his father joe suffered a massive stroke just months after kennedy took office and could not communicate in any way....but nonetheless, Kennedy is proof of what they will do anyone who tries to intercede with the moneymasters and their war machine (which we call the United states of America)...</description>

		<description>oh yeah...lets not forget McKinley who signed into law the gold standard act of 1900 and was shot and killed the same year.  Seems that messing around with monatary policy can be hazardous to your health.  The same network of families have controlled the central banks of the world for over 200 years...and guess what folks...this IS NOT conspiracy theory...its historical FACT! (look it up) ...the only conpiracy theories are on your TVs!</description>

		<description>mark....in june 1963 kennedy issued an executive order to for he treasury to print over 4 billion dollars in silver backed treasury, bypassing the FED.  He was dead in less than 6 months.  Coincidence?  maybe...but the power held by this federal reserve (an independent ageny NOT owned or controlled by the government) is beyond what most americans can comprehend.  There is no stopping what is coming our way..hate to say it but just facing the sad, inevitible truth.</description>

		<description>We can start by.... 

STOP paying interest on our own money to the Federal Reserve! AUDITING, then ENDING the Federal Reserve will save us 400 Billion per year. The US Treasury can print our own interest free money as it was stated in the Constitution. We do not owe the thieves at the Federal Reserve (Goldman Sachs) anything. Of course there are two examples of great presidents that actually took steps to have the Treasury print interest free dollars. Lincoln and Kennedy both ended up dead. Coincidence? Not!</description>
