Doesn't the Fed and the government determine wealth through fiat currency?
Nope PEOPLE do.
People determine their wealth (self worth) by how ever many zeros are on their checks, or by how ever many zeros are on there government check.
It is called dogma that spreads to hate, and fear that led to interment camps.
Doesn't matter the reason it's happened before, and the people today are no different than then.edit on 4-2-2014 by neo96 because: (no reason given)
Do I have to go fetch your quote from a few topics ago with you when you were screaming fiat currency! And how the government was the rich because they could print money.

The Japanese are people.
Gun owners are people.
Rich are people.
Teaparty members are people.
An adjective used to describe PEOPLE, and during the era of the interment camp. The Japanese was seen as a 'threat' to government.
Historical precident exists in the treatment of people who the US government perceives as a 'threat'.
And the 'rich' people were also targeted during the same time as the Japanese interment of the 40s.
Roosevelt also seized assets of the 'rich' by the confiscation of American gold and silver at the same time.
Nor were their assests seized, unless they were funding the Axis powers somehow, (ahem, Prescott Bush).
By virtue of the authority vested in me by Section 5 (b) of the Act of October 6, 1917, as amended by Section 2 of the Act of March 9, 1933, entitled "An Act to provide relief in the existing national emergency in banking, and for other purposes," in which amendatory Act Congress declared that a serious emergency exists, I, Franklin D. Roosevelt, President of the United States of America, do declare that said national emergency still continues to exist and pursuant to said section do hereby prohibit the hoarding of gold coin, gold bullion, and gold certificates within the continental United States by individuals, partnerships, associations and corporations and hereby prescribe the following regulations for carrying out the purposes of thi

Who has and who had the gold and silver for all of times sake?
Who can fund wars and internment camps?

In times of war, the laws fall silent
What I would be concerned about folks is what sort of a war would need to occur to re-establish internment camps in the US?
Americas next war will start from within.
"Department of Homeland Security" - sort of has a Nazi ring to it, don't you think?
The War will not start from within. Remember the SC said the Patriot Act, Bush's wiretaps, and if it makes it there I'm sure they will say NSA =A-OK
Go look at how he voted or what his stance was.
Fun times.
This whole thing stinks. We are the only country to (supposedly) freely elect the former head OF OUR SECRET POLICE AS PRESIDENT!!!
Really?!?
Yup.

It will NOT be the gun lovers or the religious who will be put in the camps in the future. That will be for the "paperless" people. The undocumented, or the criminally jobless. THOSE are the people that will be put in camps..the people that the fewest will complain about..that many will say "deserve" to be there. And the gun lovers and the religious will be cheering as it happens. Hate will come to America wrapped in a flag, carrying a cross, and with a six shooter strapped on for good measure, and putting "illegals" behind bars will become the "in" thing to do, so will hunting them down, just like the Jews were persecuted during Nazi Germany, and if you don't think it won't happen here, you haven't been paying close attention.

I do not think war is a requirement for concentration camps. When the economy flatlines, camps will be everywhere. FEMA, DHS, Red Cross, Wal-Mart, etc. Seriously, Wal-Mart will be involved, you bet. So, since war is not the prerequisite, rather, internal strife and/or revolt, I would guess we will see some form of "camp" in the decade, and Congress will not be silent, they will applaude them as they pass.
Well, I don't know...if they can herd up everyone connected to Islam, radical or not, I'd probably turn a blind eye.

Roosevelt did after stealing the Gold in Fort Knox.
Who can fund wars and internment camps?
The American people in the 40s did since their gold was stolen by the same guy who threw the Japanese in interment camps.

Don't have any blinders someone else does since the only GD thing they want to talk about is rich folks and ignore everything else that has been said in this thread.
