anti-american propaganda

It's unfortunate that you are unable to see the basic truth behind what is being said here.  Perhaps you should educate yourself on the beginnings of this country. And learn a little bit more about the current state of the economy.  Take some time to read the news, preferably from a source that is not part of the "corporate media", since they are owned by the very people who are profiting from the system. 

The economic problem that is being explained in the program is exactly what the Founding Fathers of this nation clearly were concerned about when they created the Constitution.  They had already learned the lessons of what happened to themselves during the revolution and what happened to in Europe when Fiat Money was issued. 

Most of the framers were very suspicious of banks, especially a Central Bank.  Therefore in Article I, Sect 8, Par 4, only Congress has the right to coin money and fix it's value, and in Article I, Sect 10 stated that no Thing shall be money but Gold and Silver.  The creation of the Federal Reserve Act goes contrary to the Constitution and therfore, in my opinion makes the entire current scenario quite un-Constitutional. 

 What is clear to me is that there are forces at work here that are taking what you and I own and giving it to those who are greedy for more money and more power.  It's insidious, and in all probability quite purposeful.  If you want a second opion, go visit Catherine Austin Fitts' site, solari.com, and read what she has to say about the "Tapeworm Economy". 

So who's truly being anti-American;  the authors of this site, or the Central Bankers that are complicit in creating the current situation?   I would argue that it is Central Bankers.

Hey there - I am a huge fan of free speech and let the initiating post on this topic exist for a week.

However, the calls for a firing squad were over the top and I finally felt I had to truncate the portion that advocated violence.

Also, after some thought, I just now banned the poster.

My rules here are simple. If you post something that a reasonable person would not say in actual conversation to another person, then you have crossed a line.

I realize that many consider that the anonymity of the internet provides some latitude in this regard, but I don't.

Here are my rules, plain and simple:
1) No calls for violence, at any level
2) Basic civility and courtesy maintained at all times.

Passionate, reasoned arguments are always allowed, while personal attacks are not.

Thank you.

This is a great site. I would like to see the rpclarkes of the world try to illustrate any falsity that they claim, instead of displaying an ignorance that is like I would expect from someone in the dark ages.

i was not able to read the rest of your post becasue it was deleted on the basis of a call for violence. however, based on what i read i can only conclude that you are one of those utterly ignorant ultra-conservative (with red-neck tendencies), in short: extremely stupid. if you cannot comprehend and see for yourself the reality that has happened in front of our eyes and not accept that the plain truth is: The US government through the actions of corrupted politicians and dishonest bureucrats (i.e. economists hired by the US government tyrants), have STOLEN from the American people all possible means to lead a productive and rich life in the future. It must be said, -in fairness- that the world created by the above mentioned groups (2) have been aided by a few, un-ethical captains of industry (namely stupid CEO's), who unfortunately, the great masses have eaten the lie spouted by politicians that basically enemy No.1 is the businessman. The point here is, if you are so stupid to express what you did about Mr, Martenson and his website, you deserve what is about to happen in this country. And before you respond with even more stupid comments, i will have you know that i am one of the most ardent defenders of Laissez Faire Capitalism (the true kind, not the corrupted one). This requires for you to understand the true original principles under which this nation was founded, INCLUDING the second amendment, the right to bear arms. If you wonder why is this relevant ? well, simple, because the intent of the second amendment was not to 'protect against intruders and criminals upon one's own home", (which it goes without saying, such is a logical conclusion). However, the true intent of the second amendment was to allow the public the opportunity to DEFEND themselves against PRECISELY what Mr. Martenson has been educating us all about what is going on. In short, that this country has been taken over by a band of corrupted politicians aided by a bunch of unethical technocrats, who in their pursuit of power and excess have literarilly bankrupted this country. I know this because numbers do not lie... and NUMBERS and FACTS is what Mr, Martenson has used to prove his points. Wheras YOU... a moron of inmeasurable size, can only use physical threats to counter a well researched and soundly backed up projection. a well founded window into the future. Unfortunately, to digest and understand his work, requires education, and the capacity to analyze things that i can see you have absolutley NO IDEA of. in part, you and your ilk are the reason why these politicians and bureucrats, have been able to get away with what they have done.... pitiful, to have destroyed the most amazing country humans had been able to create. and even more pitiful, that unfortunately, the arrogance of human nature, combined with the success of the original principles that founded this country (now totally removed from its core) produced neanderthals such as yourself. the most telling statement of your post (at least he part i was able to read), was your call for closure of Mr. Martenson... ROFLMAO who are you the NEW US government GESTAPO ? GFY.

I really think you do have everyones support here Chris. 

Thank you.
