New Google search trends indicate the phrase “bank run” has hit an all-time high. It seems that American’s fear of 'bank runs' is becoming viral. This is a huge threat to the reserve banking cartels that depend on our money to perpetuate their scams. This is also a huge threat to the uber-rich who partake in the unregulated global casino known as the derivatives market.

Take a look:





Looks like American’s are waking up!

Does this signal the beginning of the end for the global banking cartels?

Realizing what is happening and stopping it are two different steps entirely... People could realize the scam they have fed into their whole lives and still go back to it the next day, nothing would change.

And seeing how deep this goes in each of our lives, More will need to happen the 'Google Trends'

Aug-Sept 2008 was the unraveling of the U.S. recession, so that is quite relevant to the spike in google trends for the same time frame. It's been 3 months since February; besides all the CEOs jumping ship and the veil of global economic deception coming to view, this is only the tip of the iceberg.

I wish the best for Americans, because they can search "bank run" and become informed, but most of them go back to their routine lifestyle and lose the

I think you may have read too far into this one. Hell, i had to google bank run to find out what you were talking about. It's something I've heard of before, just didnt know the term for it. For all we know there could have been a bunch of kids doing essays on how stupid the concept of banks is.

The general public is completely ignorant of everything around them. Go to an american bar and ask someone about Iran. Ask them what countries it borders. Ask them about what countries border the USA. Ask them why we need the government to micromanage our lives.

The majority of people do not know that Iran borders Russia. The majority of people do not know that the USA borders Russia.

Tell someone about the NATO missile shield and Russia dispute. Most people see no problem whatsoever. Ask them about the cuban missile crisis. Most people who were alive then think it was a huge deal. But it's OK for us to have missiles pointed at russia (And lets just ignore the fact that they're supposedly pointed at a country that doesn't even have long range missiles).

Ask these same people who they're voting for for president. The results are interesting.

Most people are completely and totally ignorant about everything that doesnt directly involve them. Quite a few people, but i wouldnt say most, are far more interested in the latest BS celebrity gossip than whats really going on.

If our future depends on "most people" we are screwed. Infact, I suspect this has ALWAYS been the case. "Most people" did not revolt against the British either. It doesn't require "most people" to make great changes. They'll just sit on the sidelines and bitch about the informed people. The rowdier ones may use it as an excuse for rioting..

This is true but I’m looking at this information optimistically!

True but wouldn’t a bank run be one of the worst things that could happen to TPTB? The house of cards they've built would fall, no?

Gotta go with phroziac on this one.

People are far too self absorbed to be aware enough to cause much change.

The biggest advantage and Achilles heel of the internet is the sheer volume of information that is available to us now...

I doubt a bank run would even start in this day and age, to many people are drowned in information overload that they respond to these things like a deer in the head lights, no action just stunned freeze and carry on with their day to day.

As sgspecial19 pointed out, look at the spike between Aug – Sept 2008. Is it a coincidence that this spike coincides with the 2008 recession?

That’s a bit cynical, isn’t it? Many people are ill informed but those people are not representative of all Americans. I know plenty of people that are awake and engaged, don’t you? When the country was founded, only a few hundred people were actually involved in the process of creating our constitution and bill of rights. The majority of Americans were just trying to make ends meet and feed their families. Why wouldn’t the same hold true today?

I try to remain optimistic and hope for the best. I think if enough people were to create a run on the banks it could have some serious negative consequences for the banksters. A small scale run on BOA last year seemd to scared the hell out of them and get a lot of attention!

Could a run on the banks be what TPTB actually want?? Maybe a controlled demolition??

I was reading about this myself. There is a massive problem in Greece with people avoiding Banks. Many are stuffing their matress. This is a great way to protest. Like you said,they cant run their scams if they are low on our money. [SNIP]ers.

I'm surprised that people even need to look up something as simple as a bank run. Proving they are idiots.

Looking it up on google is not the same as taking your money out of the bank. Apparently the sheeple are so retarded they will look something like this up on google, then just turn on American Idol and forget about it.

The video was about the previous run on Bank of America.


It’s not ‘breaking news’ but rather an example that some people have done it before…myself included. I closed my BOA accounts last year.

I thought so, but could it have a negative affect?

Why would Dick Durbin have called for a bank run last year?

Were the powers that be purposely trying to implode BOA so they could then bail them out and steal more of our tax dollars?



This is what might happen if there is a bigger run on the banks. TPTB will try to get their money back from OUR WALLETS....AGAIN!

Bout time they woke up..

I was just reading on google last week
about bank runs because I was going
over what was going on in greece with
a business buddy of mine.

When you get into it, bank runs
through out modern history have made
very rich powerful men jump off skytowers..

This does seem very credible, google
bank runs and you will learn many things.

Lets hope the bankers don't push us off
a skyscraper or there going to have some
very angry people that might take down their
skyscraper.

If I thought it would bring them down I’d be all for it but it might just lead to another banker bailout.

The only way it could have the desired outcome is if we could prevent the FED from bailing them out, which seems nearly impossible right now.

We may find out soon though...

That depends on who you're talking about----the rich, or the uber-rich. The rich will probably have their investments wiped out as well, but for the uber-rich, this is a planned event. This is one step closer to global currency domination/one-world-currency (which of course must be backed by global-governance to work, as we've seen with the Euro), and at the very least it presents an opportunity for them to buy entire countries for pennies on the dollar. This is not the end for them, it's merely the beginning.

I think you’re right…..and that’s what I’m afraid of.

But a run on the banks that collapses the dollar could be the catalyst for people like Dr. Paul to really get support for ending the FED and ending our rule by unregulated banksters who answer to no one. I just don’t see change of that magnitude happening without a big catalyst such as this.

Am I wrong?

do you imply the Dollar cannot collapse without first the Fed going down?

Unfortunately, I don't think there's a place for Ron Paul besides in a post-revolutionary government. I think the coming crash has two possible outcomes: first, and most likely, the global panic of starvation and of "things never getting back to normal" will prompt people around the world to be willing to lay down their sovereignty in many ways and bow to a new, more powerful re-conglomeration of the most elite money-holders who will undoubtedly "have the plan to save the world" with some sort of global currency controlled by one central bank. It doesn't matter what downsides there are to that plan for us; they will sell us on it via MSM and talking heads before the power grid goes down.

Second, the people might----*might*-----finally be fed up enough to reject their plans and bring the *entire* system down to start again. But make no mistake, the entire system *will* have to be brought down for this to happen; heads will have to roll, literally. It will take a lot of bloodshed to rid the world of those who will inevitably find ways to work their way back into power, and even once they're gone, there's always someone else waiting to take their place. That's the time for Ron Paul, but it's a bloody road there, and unlikely. There's just no appetite for 18th-century revolutions anymore.

Remember, 99.9% of the population of the world (and of the US especially) does not understand how all of this fiat money works (or doesn't), and don't understand what the better solutions for the problem are. We have precious little time to educate them, because once it all starts to go down, they're going to be clamoring for an immediate solution that will keep the cable on and the Starbucks flowing. They're not going to care at that point for fundamentals and belt-tightening solutions. They're going to want shiny new cash in their pockets again, no matter the price.
