One way to stop the "Fed Reserve Bank Train". ... Try Big Benskanke and the Fed governors for treason, and treat them all to a very public hanging on Jeckyl Island Ga. The Monster was created there, so we should slay the beast at the same location.

In a world that made sense we would kick out all Central 'Banks.  Every single one of these privately owned Mafioso's

Public banks - the Dollar is a resource of the US people.  It should not be created as debt, but provided as the base "infastructure" of our economy.  A workable plan:  nationalize the Fed and the insolvent money center banks and use the their existing systems to manage the money supply.  Use the interest to fund government, while eliminating or minimalizing income taxes, and funnel money into the main street economy where it's needed to provide jobs and rebuild our country.

 

BTW- Fuck you Benanke, Dimon, Masters, Blankflein, etc., etc. - I look forward to the day you all swing from the highest branches.

Kick them out sure, but then what.  Their bloodlines should be either eradicated from the planet, or not allowed to do business on the planet for 1000 years.  Anyone else even remotely involved should be treated the same.  Any congressperson who supported them or helped them treated the same.  And in 500 years when little timmy asks why they aren't allowed to do ANYTHING, he can be told of their great great... grand fathers and jeckyl island.

- The continuing damage the Fed's policies is causing is simply breathtaking. They might well have looked at the ways to fix the problems and realised they were too horrific and painful to implement. But the longer they fail to fix it, the greater the agony will become.

Crazy, but that's how it goes 

Millions of people living as foes 

Maybe it's not too late 

To learn how to love 

And forget how to hate 

 

Mental wounds not healing 

Life's a bitter shame 

I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

Well, the money would have to be at least 20, anything less is considered transporting a minor across state lines.

With total disregard for the content of the above commentary, I would like to pose the question: Isn't it time for a Black Swan? And what form do you all (y'all for those who speak Texan) think it could take? 

As I just can't imagine the current fantasy can persist much longer, I am feeling something large, black, and able to soar approaching at an incalculable speed...

What, Michelle "The Wookie" Obumma hurdling to the earth after being kicked out of the Marine One helicopter for bitching about Obumma's smoking and man lust ? That does fit your description ...

That'd just make a dull thud, only audible within about 50ft.

Well Howard, the fantasy has lasted for one hundred years. The question is will it last for another hundred years?

As for Michelle-O being a black swan, I tend to think she's still in the ugly duckly phase.

But, she's definitely in the running to play the newest character in the upcoming Star Wars film: Black Wookie.

Something cheap, but very impressive:

a genuine nuclear detonation in a cargo ship a few miles offshore from a major US port.

Not too much evidence will be left to examine, and I assume the isotopic content will be adjusted to look like "one of theirs".  If that doesn't persuade the sheeple to embrace a State of Emergency, I'd be surprised.

The fed is preparing for something big. Orders of emergency water by the DHS alone are enough to send chills down your spine. It will probably be a nuke now that they are propagandizing al shudda or whatever new group is terrorizing us. H7N9 (Gov manufactured) is another effective weakening of the masses. Power grid probably going down will accompany aforementioned possible false flags. Why would any of these happen? It's all about the money and also about the evil in our times. When Satan is in charge, you can count on something pretty horrific. The most important thing we must do is bow our face to the ground and pray to God almighty, that we believe in his Son, whom he gave as a living sacrifice for our sorry self’s.

Germany probably has all the gold it requested back. It knows the SHTF moment is close.

Only thing that stops the Federal Reserve is when the masses with pitch forks and boiled rope come after them.

Actually a very smart tyrant or dictator could demonize the fed, instantly declare all fed members as treasonous and call for public support to try them as traitors of the highest level.   The  tyrant or dictator that would call for blood would be held up as a leader with high levels of support.

lol.  Tease responses. Honestly..  FED path - literally towards destruction of the USD as a currency that can be trusted in any way.  When the USD was backed by Silver/Gold it was something to be trusted.  Not so anymore.

This will drive other countries to basically try to play the FED against itself.  They make money as long as the FED is willing to pay.  Once they don't then the agents threaten to go against themselves, sell and sell into losses to crush the market.  As long as the FED is willing to pay, they set the price.  When the prices set against a currency no longer match reality of trading (i.e. oil in USD no longer fetches a bid against oil in YUAN etc.).  Then and only then will you see a disconnect of the FED and USD from what we call the 'world economy'.  The economy will be in someone elses hands and the elite that have assets denominated in USD will be 'ruined'.

This is why many talk about gold as a store of value.  It is also why RE is (potential store of value) since neither can be printed.

What the FED tries to convince people of is that commodities don't matter, yet they ultimately DO matter since everything else floats on top of them.

This is why interest rates arn't doing shit for the economy.  We basically have overbuilt on all scales and need to pare back.  Get more efficient, smarter, more self sufficient at the local level.  Yet no-one in power is talking about that reality.

Power is moving back towards the individual and individuals don't even know it yet.  With power shift becomes a responsibility shift.  Feel like health care is more 'your problem' than 'the systems' problem?  Well guess what - that will become more true in the future if it isn't now.  etc.  There is going to be less public tit to suck on, so you tit suckers better figure out how to augment your public tit action.. lol

imo of course.  We shall see if the government goes full retard -govt tit for everyone in nearly unlimited ways...  Frankly I don't see it and I sure as shit ain't counting on a gigantica govt tit feeding me everything I need.

I could be wrong.  Plan accordingly.

The Cabal always profits off both sides of every 'war'. I wouldn't be surprised if they coerced this government shutdown and associated defaulting on the debt drama that's diarreah'd all over the Cabal-owned news. I wouldn't be surprised if they were the ones that conspired to increase equity futures on the CME yesterday. It's a big fixed game and you're just someone to produce debt for the gatekeepers guys, and you have no chance of getting out of it.
