Two seismic, catastrophic things happened in 1913, the creation of the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank and income tax. The former turned the US Dollar into a self-destructive IOU at interest with the latter as its collection agency. Net result?
Everyone's poorer and here we are, chasing the dragon of inevitable inflation until death. Like no kidding, 37 trillion bucks in debt and counting? Something like that, with no end in sight, such is the insatiable, nihilist greed of the banksters and their bought and paid for shills in USGOV. And what about us.
Taxed up the wazoo. On what you buy, on what you sell, on what you save, on your pension and on your wage, on what you own and paid for, and on. They almost, so close!, managed to tax you on the very air that you breathe. Pay up, pay up serfs, and feed your private island owning overlords with your miserable, ahem, earnings, which have shrunk in real terms how much since the '70s? Look it up.
Some of you may recall there was a revolution over tax levied on citizens. I think they were upset about 2% on tea or something like that. Here & Now? End the Fed and its lackey satrap IRS, please, or perhaps you'd rather be a tax serf and please your beneficent rulers.
Your Call,
Captain Obvious says, "It is a big mess".

ReplyDeleteNot at all! True that most of us are poorer by the month, but the Finks and the (Paul) Singers are doing quite well, thank you very much. And that’s how it Should Be. Don’t take MY word for it: I’m sure the worst Ted would confirm it. (Among Nugent, Kaczynski and Cruz, the last one is the worst one by far.)
Yeah, 1913 was a very bad year for the US. Damn that Woodrow Wilson and the rest of the Wilsonians.
