It is time we need to make a run on the banks.Yes I know it will put us deep in inflation.The goverment will step in and declear a Bank Holiday.But when that is over start the run again.Don't pay them a dime.Don't worry about your credit score.If their plans succeed a credit score won't matter.We will fight this fight for our children.

There will be some dark times ahead if we do this.But we will oust the power brokers that are now in position to creat a NWO.It is the only way we have left to show our disapproval with the way things are going.Remember the 99% still control 60% of the worlds wealth.This is the last chance we have to stop their plans.It is the only tool we have left to stop a NWO.Put your money in small credit unions or buy a safe.But take our funds out of the elites hands.What can the Goverment do bail them out again?Not a chance with the debt we are in now.They will lose everything they have.This is for our kids and grandkids.We can suffer for ten years to make sure they are not slaves to the elite.Don,t forget the British they are the only country who have always stood by our side

im no economist but since money is made up anyway and the banks that have it loan it out with fractional reserve banking and most 'money' on the books is only digital seems to me a bank run would be mostly symbolic and the people would suffer the most from doing it. Additionally, even if the actual printed money had value as soon as everyone withdraws it and causes the economy to grind to a halt or nearly so then the money would begin to lose value anyway since the supply chain would be interrupted and since you cant eat money the people with real goods would no longer trade those goods for the worthless paper or coinage.

i say beat them at their own game....become as self sufficient as you can and encourage everyone you know to do the same. Play their game long enough to reach your goal.

What do the rich do with their 'money' ? They buy something with it as quickly as possible. Its like a game of hot potato.....they get rid of that so called 'money' as quickly as possible and purchase something with intrinsic value, realestate, production capability, etc.....real goods. We should all follow their example!

A panic would lead to rioting in the streets and mass starvation. But we might need it. They were too greedy and made it impossible for those not in the club to earn a living. I already abandoned the banks. I think starting a panic is against the law, but the rule of law was lost years ago.

I really would jump in on this and help out... but... I'm piss poor!
I'll join in on the protests and riots though.


I really agree with this concept and it really could work. Problem is getting enough people on board. Are people in a desperate enough state to come together on something like this yet? Could take some more time. Over here in the UK anyway.

Yes, you are right.

There is only one problem with your proposal. Most of us are not and will never be in a position to do so.

Those that can should do so though, then we can come and live with you, don't worry we are used to working hard and will work the land together.

Beautiful. One united move will cripple the elite bankers in a week. And this is our last resort as leaving it to government is not working. WE need to take action. Protest don't work. That's what they want us to do. ACTION! ACTION! CHANGE.

this isn't the first thing ive read about this this week. i have too been thinking of drawing all my cash out off my accounts ( i will keep enough cash in my accounts to cover bills ect tho...) and keeping it in a safe. i do believe this is the only way "they" will listen. on the other hand it just be another step forward to a cash less society but saying that its coming to a cash less society as i write this through various things going on around the world. iam for one am going to with draw my money and keep it t home in a safe. hurt them were it hurts while i can... if a lot off ppl do this it might make a difference

Your points are all taken and most are true.I am no Economist either.But I do study history.Yes there will be panic in the streets.These are the hard times I referred to.Leave the bank Stockplie food,It is the only way we have to draw attention to what is going on.No they will not print more money inflation would soar then.But our voice will be heard.You sound like a paid troll doing your best to scare the people.Yes I will but up with all the bad things that will happen to save the future for our kids.This is the only way to stop them without a civilwar.In the 30's they had a run on the banks after the bottom droped out of wall street.Within ten years we were on the road to recovery.Remember the 40's & 50's things were great then.Take the money from the 1% watch them fall all their plans in ruin.Then we can start over and not let them get the upper hand ever again.Times will be very hard for a while.But what can the banks do evict everyone.I don't think so they will have to put some of the money they stolded back if they want to save their selfs.We will stop giving money to countries that hate us and spend it at home.At this point in time we need to fix our problems first we did this in the 30's with isolationism.Why do we try to save the world unless there is a motive (NWO).Bring all the troops home.Close all foregin bases.With Canada and the north slopes and not exporting ANY oil we can survive.North America (including Canada)is self supporting.Let the rest fix their own problems.We are not the world police.Get out of the U.N let 3000 miles of ocean protect our borders.Any incurssion on the American Continent North and South be met with swift retribution.We were fine the biggest and best nation on earth in the 40's.Only after ww 2 did we start a downward slide.Lets mind our own business and fix things at home.Don't forget the British they are the only tried and true ally who have always stood by our side

I have no idea whether or not a bank run would "hurt" the Banks BUT you should get your money out while you still can just so you have it.

If your funds are entirely electronic then you're at the mercy of:
1. The banks being open/available/staffed.
2. The banks willingness to give you your funds.
3. The banks having the necessary funds, if any.
4. The banks even existing.

If the banks close/disappear, you're screwed.

Good thread for thoughts, I read an article yesterday about the heat wave and no power thing going on here in North America.

I had to laugh at a picture of a guy who owns a store with an ice storage unit outside.
He was dumping bags of ice into a cooler because he could not sell them because his cash register was not working.

What is it? A buck or so a bag so just take cash and ring it in later..........the thing was most people had no cash so they were screwed.

My point is get your money out or at least 80 % of it and do not look back.

You are quite right! Bank runs only work if money is finite not fiat! The only way to fight is to stop the consumerism but i don't believe this will work either because we are so addicted to materialism! if it did the state would make laws stating that we were not allowed to grow our own food and taxes would increase! Just like they are already! The economy would falter and more people would be out of work contributing to more hungry and homeless! IMHO I don't see anything changing until we unite against our enslavers! I don't know if the leaders of the revolution would pass off their power to the people once they topple the already oppressive government!
If they did though the only way to make sure that we did'nt end up in the same situation would be to throw off the oppressive representative government and allow for a truely democratic society where all participate in the decisions! This could be done through the internet, though there would be alot of problems proposing laws to be voted on! Though the most important thing IMO to keep our world free and equal would be to simplify the laws!
Problem is everyone wants their share of the cake but noone wants to go to the store to pick it up! our biggest obstacle is we have become lazy, hypocritical, ignorant and afraid! The biggest reason for this is the propaganda
that is thrust into our faces everyday and the only way out of this is to face our fears! Another problem is the portrait that the motion picture industry proposes that when things are at their worst some hero comes along to solve all the impossible situations! That attitude that "it can't happen to us" or when it does that thought that "everything will be alright"! Too bad that it's coming and nothing will be ok! We are heading into some of the worst times since the dark ages, a new dark age one only comparable to our worst nightmares! Prepare for hell on earth!

I think it's a great idea but most people aren't ready to 'wake up' yet. They are content with the luxuries they have.

Sorry. I do think we need to do something.

It will never happen. The big banks have hundreds of billions of dollars in deposits, and the bulk of these deposits are from large, Fortune 500 companies, not individuals.

Even if you could muster a citizen revolt against the banks, the consumer deposits that would leave wouldn't be enough to put even a small dent into the deposit base held at these big banks.

The average Joe Consumer has only a few hundred dollars in their checking account. Even small businesses don't typically keep large deposit balances.

Unless you can convince Fortune 500 companies and High Net Worth individuals to move their deposits, your efforts will continue to remain fruitless.

They're becoming more popular than you might think. The past 3 years especially.

You know the news probably isn't going to tell you about this though.

The problem is, as a world community we have a cancer that we have let go for far too long, it is useless now to try and get help. The best thing that we can do now is let the economy die now before it gets any worse. The longer we prolong things the worse effect it will have on future generations. The gov'ts of the world have been making a run at oil, money, agriculture etc. for decades now. We are at the point now where we are struggling to prolong the inevitable, but it's going to collapse at some point.

The problem is that it is out of our hands for the most part. We have to relearn how to become self sufficient in our communities again. There is no better time than now to start the process. Learn to harvest the seeds in your garden. find out from your neighbors what skills they have, and how they can be massed together to form small communities. Move to places that you feel might be an oasis if the SHTF. Get away from places that may turn toxic in the future if they aren't maintained. Most of all, raise your children to know these things and to be close to the earth.

Don't worry about the banks, there is nothing you can do to help or hurt them, just start thinking about the true value of things that you amass, and make wise decisions about how you prepare.

Thats the point we are already screwed.Not one person has replied to isolationism.That is what brought us out of the great depression.Stop sending jobs over seas.That is what the elite want.Impose stiff tarriffs on all imported goods.As far as riots in the streets we already have a police state.People are just to dumb to know it.We came out of the 30's alright.There were some tought times ahaed.But we made it before we will make it again.I am not worried about your currten comfords,this is for future generations.The American people can take care of their selfs.We already have over half the country on food stamps.Think how much more money we would have if we brought all troops home.quit sending money to countries that hate us and close all over seas bases.Anyone who thinks otherwise has been programed by the MSM.Enough allready lets take care of our own first.

Our ecomony would not grind to a halt.If we taxed the he11 out of vthe companys who send our jobs over seas.No the unemployment would drop.As far as printing more money they wouldn't do that because what money they had would vanish due to inflation.In the 30's they squatted there are many laws still on the books that give proberty rights to people that take care of forclosed homes.Ruin the rich take back what the stoled from us.
