You have got to be frickin' kidding me. Sure the US has made some mistakes in its history, but what do you think our world would be like if the US was to take an absolute neutral/isolationist foreign policy? I don't like our country being the world's policeman either but it is clear that there are far too many situations where the UN and the other wealthy industrialized nations on our planet have been impotent or unwilling to confront issues that threaten global security.
Originally posted by Wild_Eyed_Southern_BoyIf you will do your research, you will find that the US had attempted to stay out of WWII and let Europe, Nevilles Chamberlain to be exact, to take care of the growing threat of Nazi Germany. Europe chose to pacify Hitler with diplomacy even when there were clear signs of his intentions. The rest is history. So here we are 66 years later with no Hitler, no Soviet Union, no Imperial Japan and all this bitching about the US taking initiative to address growing threats to the stability of the planet. Its too bad Europe and the US didnt have this foreign policy in 1935.

Our debt may be large, but I for one am not going to cough up $27K to bail out our government. If I can balance a checkbook, then the wonderful self proclaimed leaders should be setting the highest example of financial integrity. If they can't run a country in the green, then when the chips fall - I say let them hang.

Money, money, money. Its all about money who creates the money???
The Federal Reserve
The Bank of England
The World Bank
The Bank of america etc. etc.
Did you know for every 1 $/£ you give the bank the bank can "lend" 7 out and charge interest. How do you think The Knights Templar became so rich so quickly they basically created the money system of today.
Its obvious everyone cannot pay back the money borrowed so the banks get there own back its called a recession then that country(s) businesses get stuck 'coz they cannot pay anyone so alot of people loose there jobs do crime and go to prison.

Money is the medium which we use to exchange goods and services – so whoever controls the issue of money is potentially in a very powerful position.
Its not the Government you need to worry about its the Evil banks of the world economy that make the little people suffer. Along with the stockmarket and profit greed.

We can change whatever we want if there were enough people to rise against the banks and governments and call there bluff, I spose we can blame The Knights Templar who created our modern money systems for the mess we are in today.
Its all about Education and history. If we weren't fed so many lies at school maybe we would have smarter people on the planet instead we are told we are all just a mistake of the universe, a chance. So nobody cares and we all live in complete ignorance of each other.

After Reagan brought the US out of the gold-standard, it has been using a debt-based welfare system, meaning that in order for the US economy to flourish, it HAS to be in debt. Without debt, there would be bugger-all flow of money in the economy.
The US military-industrial complex uses more money than what really exists, as it likes to take out massive amounts in bonds from the federal reserve to pay for it's new projects. This massive borrowing habit won't destroy america, it'll simply make the buying power of the pissant amount of assets that the middle class and lower class have, very weak.
Even a large-scale nuclear war on the US won't destroy this; ONLY the creation of a nationalised banking system with a NATIONAL, locally-printed currency, and the total defiance of the other nations in the world to accept the false currency of the 'greenback' (which isn't the REAL greenback to begin with), will have any effect. The businesses in the US would have to completely change over to the new monetary standard in order to preserve it, and there would not be able to be any fluctuating exchange rates between the two, as that would mean that the old USD would have some value in the new system, which is BAD.
The way that I could see this ever actually taking place, would be in a massive war on the USA, and the destruction of the hold that the NWO/Illuminati has on the citizens of that country. In times of scarcity, the resources that matter most, are valued highest. ie. a #ty little piece of paper that is worth nothing because of greedy bankers, will become useless as the need for a non-fluctuating currency arises, like foodstamps in ww2-times.
P.S. UGH to 'FlyersFan's post about five or six posts before this one. The last thing the world needs is more americans on a high-horse. The US is broke, and has been for a while now. Stop protecting your illuminati/israeli-minded government and learn how to think outside the box that is the 'happy american dream'. America's elite are raping the world, and using the majority of us as pawns. We need to wake the f**k up and stop playing their game. If we refuse to play their game, then we win, GAME OVER!

That's factually incorect. The first official US currency was created in 1793, though de facto versions existed in the form of bank notes and the worthless Continentals prior to that. The Fed was established in 1913.

www.brillig.com...
As it says, for America to pay-off its debts, ever citizen, even children and babies will have to give $27,000 and also, the debt total is increasing by TWO BILLION, thats right, TWO BILLION a day
America will use its military might it has been building up year after year for so long when it instigates world war three. They havent been spending $379 billion a year on its military for no reason

Why would you cough up that much, the national debt is money owed to you buddy. You would merely be increasing it (debt) if you expect to ever see that cash again. If this was the mafia, we would all be breaking some legs in Washington right now.

Why would it ? Are you going to stop paying your electricity bill with dollars ? Are you going to stop paying your taxes which pay for the warships and attack planes which brings the oil which you later pump into your cars as gasoline which you pay for with dollars which allows you to drive to work?. How are you going to specifically stop paying the interest on the debt ? How are you going to live, feed yourself, go to work if all this stops ? How are you going to 'get on-line' without electricity or a new computer or a fancy high chair and desk to sit it on. All paid for by dollars CREATED BY THEM...
...This is how THEY have managed to dominate the entire planet - they print fake money and their citizens enforce it's validity by threat of military force.

Actually, even before Lincoln's time...The banks were already "infiltrating" themselves into controling the government before the Civil War. Lincoln tried to warn us: "I have the Confederate Army in front of me & the banks behind me. Of the two, the banks are more dangerous."
