This is a normal post OKAAAAAYYY...
I've got to go in a minute, so I'm just going to throw a few points out. I don't really have the time to write full paragraphs - for which I apologise.

First: hyperinflation? Where? Yes, printing money can cause that. And, not being an economist, I can't comment on the wisdom of doing so now. But I'm willing to believe that it might be necessary, and there's no reason at all to suppose that it'll be hyperinflationary. Evidence, please.

Second: The gold standard. You seem curiously hung up on this. However, I'm puzzled. If it's so important for the dollar to be backed by gold, what, in turn, backs the gold? If gold doesn't need backing, why does anything else? (You don't believe in gold's inherent value do you? Really? Please, no...)

Third: New World Order. Splicing a few contextless soundbites doesn't amount to much. It tells us nothing about the nature of the alleged NWO, what the phrase means, nor why (and that) we should worry. The notion that the world might be restructured radically in some way is potentially quite appealing.

Fourth: The clip at 4:30 onwards seems like churn-it-out anti-communist and anti-left paranoia. It doesn't need refutation. You can smell the hokum.

Fifth: 7:20 onwards. Ditto. Hokum. Surely you can see that?

Sixth: 7:55. The claims about the EU consitution are simply false.

Seventh: 8:30. What's the evidence for the Amero claims? Simply that there's a road being built? Oh, come off it. And - besides - you haven't explained why the Amero would be so bad. Soviet consitution? Really?

Note that the speaker here is a libertarian candidate. That is - fairly rightwing, individualistic, frontiersman, small-state claptrap.

And with that, I'm off. See you later.

This is a normal post ?
you cannot be this stupid?

no doubt you have intelligence but your supreme arrogance has a habit of distorting any info you are presented with or simply creating a blind spot to be ignored

I seem to remember when I was predicting the the financial/housing crash begining in 07 you took great pleasure in telling me how misguided I was and how it will be a minor blip from which house prices will bounce back from again - remember that?

when you develop an arrogance that interferes with your survival instinct I seriously suggest you have a rethink about your outlook

compare what 1oz of gold bought 100 years ago and 1 oz buys you today

compare what £1 bought you 100 years ago and what £1 buys you today

you get the idea?

www.economicshelp.org/2008/04/hyperinflation-causes-costs-and.html

when money comes off the gold standard the banks have free reign: every note is produced with interest (debt) attached - the effect is the central bank has to perpetually increase the money supply to cover the outstanding debt created - which in turn creates more debt - what we have is a very sophisticated form of slavery - as it is impossible for people and government to come out of this self perpetuating cycle of debt

and what is money today - a promisory note backed by our labour, they are permitted to create the money in relation to how much actual money they hold - they are still creating it from nothing - and charge interest on it

it then loans to the government at interest and then regulates value of this currency through supply


this entire mechanism only produces one thing -spiralling debt and systmatic collapse - what we are witnessing today

witness the toxic loans and sub primes and how the money was raised to back them - not possible if there was a leverage on how much could be raised by anchoring it to a limited gold supply - thus keeping inflation down - and the cost of living

witness the gov backed programme in the US to make affordale housing available to people they knew could not repay it - they made it policy - look at Obama his vice pres involvement in this

look up Fanny Mae - do the research

you do not make mopre loans available to meet the rising house prices - this is like poring petrol on the fire as doing so will only create house prices spiralling upwards out of control with loans being thrown at any old joe to buy one on a 125% mortgage - you don't need to be a rocket scientist to see what will happen when yo make a huge demand available (sub prime morgages issued to unstable holders who will default) to a limited housing stock - it's like someone said about the financial crisis being caused by city wide boys and not some 'shadowy elite'

yep, the city wide boys caused the financial troubles but because they operated in an unregulated arena created by those above them - despite the seeming chaos it all still exists within the convines of created system at the higher level, as with the 30s - and have no doubt this was steered by a group from above


in the 20s they refined this scam by increasing the money supply and creating high risk loans (hence the period known as the Roaring 20s) - they then called in the loans en masse causing massive sell offs and bank runs enabling the central bank to buy up whole corporations on the cheap - -the bank then contracted the money supply creating -the great depression of the 1930s -

“a world banking system was being set up, a superstate controlled by international bankers acting togather to enslave th world” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_T._McFadden Louis Mc Fadden (later poisoned)

"Give me the control of the credit of a nation, and I care not who makes the laws.” ROthchild (owner of BoE)

“this regionalization is in keeping with the Tri-Lateral Plan which calls for a gradual convergence of East and West. Ultimately leading towards the goal of a one world government.” Zbigniew Brezinski

Zbigniew Brezinski is OBAMA's main man - look it up - look him up

(aplogies for spelling - speed typing as I have to leave and I have a tonne of problems to sort.... but teh bitch ain't one)

"he has policies?"

This is a normal post Naa.
Though large bodies of text can put some people off.

I went through a phase of trying to alert everyone I know to the real facts, some people will never be able to accept it, you have to move on.

And yes, invest in gold/silver while it's affordable.

Laters.

This is a normal post East and West won't converge for centuries
if at all

He's a name that you probably dislike , but Samuel Huntington's Clash of Civilisations is a good read to this effect

I have no idea what one ounce of gold bought a century ago, nor what a pound bought. I don't see how that makes a difference.

The value of gold only exists because we desire it - that's what value is. Now, it happens that people consistently seem to want gold - but, were they to decide that, say, topsoil was much more desirable, they'd sell their golf for topsoil. The value of gold'd plummet - and it'd buy very little - and the price of topsoil would rise, meaning that it'd buy more.

Rather like a currency. Gold may be less volatile over the short term, but that has to do with human psychology more than with gold itself.

Conversely, a currency is valuable if and only if people want it. It doesn't need to be guaranteed by anything except people's faith in it. (And don't go thinking that gold is a guarantee against inflation - it isn't - or that it provides a stable mark of value - witness the stories about the Malian emperor who, in the 14th century, undertook the Hajj. While in Cairo, he gave away so much gold that the market collapsed and the economy took years to recover.)

Incidentally, were I to pay you for a good or service in gold, you'd be relying on the probability that someone'd want to exchange that gold later for food or shelter or something. Rather like a promissory note, in fact...

Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac were monumental fuck-ups. So what? Noone denies that, and it doesn't alter the general picture.


Your quotations add nothing - except... Rothschild owned the BoE? Eh?

Apologies for typos - I'm a bit tipsy.
