Banks wouldn't be a threat absent the Federal Reserve Act and legal tender laws. Fiat banks without government sponsorship would gain no traction in a free market. Government is the problem.
Other than the fact that government IS in bed with banks and corporations, this is an idiotic graphic. The problem begins and ends with our corrupt government. The banks and "evil" corporations can only do what they can legally do by law. If we want ONE place to fix instead of two we go after the government. The Tea Party are made up of producers who understand this concept. Occupy is made up of the brainiacs in our entitlement class and 20-something socialist stoolies unwittingly marching to the drums of "collapse the whole thing into the waiting arms of globalism".
I think the point is that if you fix (destroy) the fraudulent banking system the government also follows. Indeed governments today are so heavily dependent on financing that comes from the central and commercial banks that if the fraudulent schemes (fiat money, fractional reserve banking, etc.) collapsed then the governments around the world would also likely collapse.
However, I don't completely agree with that as a real long term solution, since an important matter of principle would remain unresolved. And there I agree with you that the problem begins with the government, and more specifically with the coercive imposition of taxes, which (among other things that governments do) violates the non-aggression principle.
Not in the distant past receiving welfare, or any kind of handout was a total social stigma. These days, it has been raised to an art form and you are considered a fool if you don't participate.
There are innate parasites, government and its cronies, and adaptive parasites, generally decent people being crushed by the actions of government, often with few choices left.
A major part of government's raison d'etre is offering a subsistent living to the victims it creates and in doing so, creates the conditions for more victims.
In nature, a predator or parasite doesn't benefit its victim, neither does government.

Big government and big banks are just the facade of the Deep State that runs the Orwellian-named land of the free.
The American Deep State: Wall Street, Big Oil and the Attack on U.S. Democracy
we now have “two governments: the one its citizens were familiar with, operated more or less in the open: the other a parallel top secret government whose parts had mushroomed in less than a decade into a gigantic, sprawling universe of its own…“
There is the visible government situated around the Mall in Washington, and then there is another, more shadowy, more indefinable government that is not explained in Civics 101 or observable to tourists at the White House or the Capitol. The former is traditional Washington partisan politics: the tip of the iceberg that a public watching C-SPAN sees daily and which is theoretically controllable via elections.

"The Disappeared: Chicago Police DetIn Americans at Abuse-Laden Black Site"
The Chicago police department operates an off-the-books interrogation compound, rendering Americans unable to be found by family or attorneys while locked inside what lawyers say is the domestic equivalent of a CIA black site.
The facility, a nondescript warehouse on Chicago’s west side known as Homan Square, has long been the scene of secretive work by special police units. Interviews with local attorneys and one protester who spent the better part of a day shackled in Homan Square describe operations that deny access to basic constitutional rights.
Alleged police practices at Homan Square, according to those familiar with the facility who spoke out to the Guardian after its investigation into Chicago police abuse, include:
-Keeping arrestees out of official booking databases.
-Beating by police, resulting in head wounds.
-Shackling for prolonged periods.
-Denying attorneys access to the “secure” facility.
-Holding people without legal counsel for between 12 and 24 hours, including people as young as 15.
-At least one man was found unresponsive in a Homan Square “interview room” and later pronounced dead.
The Criminal Fraud UNITED STATES, CORP. INC. is well past becoming the Fourth Riech. We are the Fourth Reich. Keep your power dry. The Boston Bombimg was just a lockdown BETA Test of Martial Law.
If & when the time comes. If it's wearing a Costume Aim Small & drop them at the knees.
The Criminal Fraud UNITED STATES, CORP. INC. sets a precedent to all other Corp. government agencies (like local police) that it's ok to flout the "law."
When the top dog tells the public "fu#k off, we'll do what we like and not hold anyone accountable", all the smaller dogs follow suit.
So, when you see local police abusing the public and no one doing anything about it, you're seeing the smaller dogs following the Criminal "UNITED STATES, CORP. INC".
If you have not noticed the ploice are a standing and occupying army killing off American's as they feel like it , and what do American's do about it NOTHING why because they have no ball's . There will be very few who do something about it and they will be left high and dry by the other American's that are to busy filming it on there IPhone's. I ask you this the police kill one unarmed civilian every 8 hours and there has not been one retaliation killing , what does that say to you ?
Rule will allow spouses of some H-1B visa holders to work in U.S.
Nearly 180,000 spouses of workers with H-1B visas would be eligible for employment in the U.S. under new rules issued by the Department of Homeland Security.
Very "Robust" legislation. If you thought your wages were stagnant or dropping before, you better sit down (and start saving like a Madman!) cause it's going to get alot worse.
WRONG!!! No I did not junk ya. Big govt wants the cheap labor, big labor wants the votes for the left. They all want foreigners and it matters not if they are legal.
Liberty minded folks, the unemployed, folks with common sense and folks waiting in ling to immigrate here want to keep the illegals out.
Our society consists almost entirely of responses to government actions. Including your reply...passports, big government, big banks - can't get more governmenty than that.
Yes IBM is laying off lot's of people because the NSA has fucked it up for them who wnat's to buy there shit when it all has a back door to steal corp secrets and personal shit , would you buy there crap?
It's about Obama's big government bringing in Muslims by the planeload .... unloading them at the far side of the airport .... giving them $5K in cash .... putting them in government contracted buses .... fast tracking all their immigration papers .... setting them up in Hud Section 8 housing .... a big government, turnkey operation .... this is not about Libertarian freedom to migrate !
If you think of it this way .Obama's ONE job is to do everything he can to destroy America , then everything makes perfect sence. Come on it's not rocket sience.
Sorry you have it backwards. The richest have bought your government. When Wall Street is handed $4 Trillion to ramp the market they control....you know that all pretence of capitalism is dead...you have raw cronyism!
That's why government is the core problem. Without a bribable elite class with guns, prisons and the supposed moral authority to hurt people for their own good the bankers wouldn't have anything to work with but meaningless pieces of paper.
Wealth power will, in most cases, trump political power unless a mad person is heading government. Of course physical power, strong enough, will trump wealth and political power.
Of course physical power, strong enough, will trump wealth
I think the time is coming when this long-standing fact of life will be reversed once and for all.
It is now possible to own, transfer and execute contracts in financial assets that cannot be seized or taxed, if used properly. This includes currency (cryptocurrencies like bitcoin), shares, bonds, etc., all without the involvement of any middlemen, legislation or enforcement agencies or any centralized institutions. Without the ability to enforce taxation no entity can abuse physical power for very long. Even if it decided to fight all users of cryptocurrencies and cryptoassets, it is only a matter of time before enough wealth is amassed and allotted for the destruction of such abusive power. This need not create a new abusive power in the process.
I think all the prerequisites for this (at least in therms of technologies) are in place.
Its the people. Screaming at each other when the problems are right behind them.
They need to find a common denominator to work from. Like in the World Wars, they put the best where it would do most good, regardless of party affilliation.
When the people start demanding as one instead of trying to rip each other to shreds, government and banks will change a lot and President's attitudes will humble
Agreed. The problem is that people who titularly elect our so-called representatives have become fully vested in the left-right or D-R political wars. Neither side understands that they actually have common enemies and those enemies, to use a George Carlin bit, are "In a club and you ain't a member". Until and unless the people as a whole (and not just a few people on what's viewed as a right-wing fringe website) understand that they're being played by a group of the power elite that could give a shit about them, the country can't even begin to heal.
Someone above said the solutions are known. Yeah, they're known by a relatively small percentage of people. The vast majority of people in this country think that all of our problems will go away if the Republican Party is outlawed (if you're a D) or if the Democratic Party is outlawed (if you're an R).
I'll tell you, I sometimes think this country will end up being run by a dictator in the not too distant future because at some point, one of the parties will, in fact, be successful at outlawing the other and some very shrewd operator in the winning party will take the reins completely.
Drudge has an article that says more Muslims are coming to America than Mexicans and Latin Americans. Assuming that's true, banksters may have serious problems with Sharia Law. Sharia cuts off the hands of thieves. A Muslim, I know, told me, "We have no theft". Bunch of banksters with no hands coming to a town near you.
They cut off the hands of common crimminals .... especially those who have no clout .... or worse .... those who have offended .... the more powerful .... the distribution of this harsh punishment .... is not a model .... for equality under the law !
is a composite organism that emerges from algae living among filaments of a fungus in a mutually beneficial (symbiotic) relationship. The whole combined life form has properties that are very different from properties of its component organisms.
After it's all said and done, the real value that Occupy Wall Street has given to the narrative is the acknowledgment that there is class warfare going on between the 1%(.01% if you prefer) and the 99% of the population. They have brought all of us the realization that a handful of oligarchs own and control this country and are running it for their own benefit. The big banks, the big corporations and ultimately the government are all own and controlled by these scumbags. They are squashing the middle class in the same you might squash a bug. They are turning the country into a police state to protect themselves.
For those of us who were never there, would you share with us how common were the ideas and principles of no government restrictions for contracts, opposition to taxation and all other forms of aggression?
Well, no matter if you agree with his philosopy or not, if you had ever taken the time to even read some of the works of Marx. He predicted that the inherent flaw and evil in capitalism is eventually all the money would be concentrated in the top percent, in this case the .01%. The very thing you are bitching about.
Drivel indeed, that is why he is called a Giant among men. I think this is on his tombstone. He was a worthless bum that would rather let his children starve than do menial work,(unwilling to walk his own talk) which is why I dont think much of him personally, not what he wrote, although I do not agree with everything he said..
the owners of the banks have a difficult
path to legally and openly become the

You have to have one of them completely demolished and then the whole problem is solved. Note that if you leave even a single column standing, the building will still stand and function. So either demolish one whole first floor or leave one column each for both first floors and let it tip over by its own imbalance, or by the force of a mere breeze.
“The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.' ”- Ronald Reagan - 40th president of US (1911 - 2004)
“If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in 5 years there'd be a shortage of sand” – Milton Friedman, Nobel Laureate Economist
"The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks." – Lord Acton
“Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” - Lord Acton
“When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain.” - Napoleon Bonaparte
“I have never yet had anyone who could, through the use of logic and reason, justify the Federal Government borrowing the use of its own money... I believe the time will come when people will demand that this be changed. I believe the time will come in this country when they will actually blame you and me and everyone else connected with the Congress for sitting idly by and permitting such an idiotic system to continue.” - Congressman Wright Patman
“The real menace of our republic is this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under cover of a self created screen....At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as international bankers. The little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes. They practically control both political parties.” - New York City Mayor John F. Hylan, 1922
The idendity of the problem is given by the running joke, composing history and histories, consisting in the idea, that if all are under my thumb finally freedom will be the result.
If there were just left governments and banks that matters, we would see the joke operating here in sorting out the matter of concern.
The unifying element is the psychopath's game that spins on the logic of the fox in the hen house. If all the poultry is dead I'm relieved from all the chaos and cries.

Big Gov has the guns to control Big Banks but not the integrity. Knock down dishonest,ignorant,self interested politicians and AUDIT THE FED would be a good start.
The government in the US of A can be summed up by this. In 1953 'our' government came up with the 501c(3) exemption. Though churches were already completely exempt from taxation, they encouraged all the churches to register for this exemption. They did this because 501c(3) exemptions have rules. The important one being, no political free speech. Our government took the rules and morality of the church OUT of politics.
Banks can be summed up like this. Many ancient (and some not so ancient) King made usury (the loaning of money at interest) a crime, punishable by death. This was not because the Kings were just good people, they did this because if they didn't, and money was loaned at interest, in about 150 years, two or three people ended up with all the gold in the kingdom and the economy grinded to a stop. Though we don't have gold as money today (another scheme of the bankers), the same thing would happen with out fiat money. The only way to stop this from happening even with fiat money, is to continually have a new supply of fiat money enter into the system. This is what we call inflation.
And if you were Satan, cast out of heaven onto the earth, and you still wanted to rule over man as you wanted to in heaven, where would you place yourself?
A house divided... Oh wait!
Hey! It's the same buidling! Is that significant?
I have never met a person who was in favor of smaller government and didn't also deride banking institutions and the Federal Reserve.

They weren't clueless. They owe their existence to Big Bro as no one else would hire them.

When you are a parasite it is easy to justify parasitism.
When you are a parasite, it is life-threatening to do otherwise.
Not in the distant past receiving welfare, or any kind of handout was a total social stigma. These days, it has been raised to an art form and you are considered a fool if you don't participate.

on the H1-b subject the repubs vote 100 % while the Dems vote95% . Both parties want to hurt the USA workers while helping the elites
The chicken or the egg?
They forgot "Big Bubble."
The American Troika.
Big Government, Big Business and Big Bubble.
The rest of us are just bit players in a Douglas Adams cartoon.
"..and then of course I've got this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left side....."
Big government is the core problem. Big banks are guilty by association. Government needs the banks, to funnel their handouts.
Sorry you have it backwards. The richest have bought your government. When Wall Street is handed $4 Trillion to ramp the market they control....you know that all pretence of capitalism is dead...you have raw cronyism!
"The richest have bought your government."
That's why government is the core problem. Without a bribable elite class with guns, prisons and the supposed moral authority to hurt people for their own good the bankers wouldn't have anything to work with but meaningless pieces of paper.
Governments, banks, churches, all work the same.
Temples of power that want you to believe in them so you give up your freedom and money so that they can rule over you and protect you.
Wealth power will, in most cases, trump political power unless a mad person is heading government. Of course physical power, strong enough, will trump wealth and political power.
I think the time is coming when this long-standing fact of life will be reversed once and for all.
It is now possible to own, transfer and execute contracts in financial assets that cannot be seized or taxed, if used properly. This includes currency (cryptocurrencies like bitcoin), shares, bonds, etc., all without the involvement of any middlemen, legislation or enforcement agencies or any centralized institutions. Without the ability to enforce taxation no entity can abuse physical power for very long. Even if it decided to fight all users of cryptocurrencies and cryptoassets, it is only a matter of time before enough wealth is amassed and allotted for the destruction of such abusive power. This need not create a new abusive power in the process.
I think all the prerequisites for this (at least in therms of technologies) are in place.
Puppets and Puppet Masters - Problem solved
Wasn't it some POS Rothschild that said something akin to "I care not who makes the laws if I control the money supply?"
The problems have been identified, the solutions are known, the clock is ticking.......
Definitely big banks.
Definitely two problems.
Both sides are right. ZOG is the FED.....The FED is ZOG.
Does anyone remember a Pentecostal Christian appointed as Chairman of the federal reserve board?
I also wonder how high this building is and who is residing in the penthouse...
It doesn't end.
Government/banks grow like a cancer.
The top stages are always under construction, nobody lives there.
Its the people. Screaming at each other when the problems are right behind them.
They need to find a common denominator to work from. Like in the World Wars, they put the best where it would do most good, regardless of party affilliation.
When the people start demanding as one instead of trying to rip each other to shreds, government and banks will change a lot and President's attitudes will humble
Cherry picker, the first step is to get rid of the R and D parties. In any order.
Agreed. The problem is that people who titularly elect our so-called representatives have become fully vested in the left-right or D-R political wars. Neither side understands that they actually have common enemies and those enemies, to use a George Carlin bit, are "In a club and you ain't a member". Until and unless the people as a whole (and not just a few people on what's viewed as a right-wing fringe website) understand that they're being played by a group of the power elite that could give a shit about them, the country can't even begin to heal.
Someone above said the solutions are known. Yeah, they're known by a relatively small percentage of people. The vast majority of people in this country think that all of our problems will go away if the Republican Party is outlawed (if you're a D) or if the Democratic Party is outlawed (if you're an R).
I'll tell you, I sometimes think this country will end up being run by a dictator in the not too distant future because at some point, one of the parties will, in fact, be successful at outlawing the other and some very shrewd operator in the winning party will take the reins completely.
Bay area guy,
"I sometimes think this country will end up being run by a dictator"
You might want to look out of the window !
Actually, I meant a bona fide, no-holes-barred, yeah I'm a fucking dictator, so get used to it, dictator. Obama's not there.....yet.
He's a socialist. Dictators come after that when the pendulum swings harder to one side or the other.
yes because anarchist have such a good record.
Least bad so far.
Please explain.
......then get rid of the fucking FED!
Drudge has an article that says more Muslims are coming to America than Mexicans and Latin Americans. Assuming that's true, banksters may have serious problems with Sharia Law. Sharia cuts off the hands of thieves. A Muslim, I know, told me, "We have no theft". Bunch of banksters with no hands coming to a town near you.
The Islamic banking scam is widespread, Saudi Arabia exists ... I think your friend is suffering from the no true Scottsman fallacy.
Also of course stealing from the kafir is never really a problem to begin with.
"...stealing from the kafir is never really a problem to begin with."
The same way it's not a problem to steal from the goyim.
They cut off the hands of common crimminals .... especially those who have no clout .... or worse .... those who have offended .... the more powerful .... the distribution of this harsh punishment .... is not a model .... for equality under the law !
Spot on, they feed off of one another and nothing will change so long as they remain
Lichen -
is a composite organism that emerges from algae living among filaments of a fungus in a mutually beneficial (symbiotic) relationship. The whole combined life form has properties that are very different from properties of its component organisms.
Same with government and banksters.
If Occupy REALLY thinks banks are the problem....than SHAME on them,...for aligning themselves with Elizabeth Warren,..a bankster apologist.
I see Tea Party as Serious about going after BOTH !!!!
Occupy is like SYRIZA,...
Marxist drivel that is beholden to the Power wielders.
After it's all said and done, the real value that Occupy Wall Street has given to the narrative is the acknowledgment that there is class warfare going on between the 1%(.01% if you prefer) and the 99% of the population. They have brought all of us the realization that a handful of oligarchs own and control this country and are running it for their own benefit. The big banks, the big corporations and ultimately the government are all own and controlled by these scumbags. They are squashing the middle class in the same you might squash a bug. They are turning the country into a police state to protect themselves.
You got all that from a group of people who couldn't form a coherent thought beyond a slogan length sentence?
You might have got all that here, but you certainly didn't get it from the front lines of the Free Shit Army.
I guess you never took the time to be there.
I didn't meet a single member of the FSA.
I did meet a lot of people with passion and ideas.
I met some idiots too, but not many.
For those of us who were never there, would you share with us how common were the ideas and principles of no government restrictions for contracts, opposition to taxation and all other forms of aggression?
I think we are way past having a hope of a group of people who have a "Coherent Thought" to solve our problems.
I think what you/we will see a lot of, "Incoherent Thoughts" with all it's stupid results.
Well, no matter if you agree with his philosopy or not, if you had ever taken the time to even read some of the works of Marx. He predicted that the inherent flaw and evil in capitalism is eventually all the money would be concentrated in the top percent, in this case the .01%. The very thing you are bitching about.
Drivel indeed, that is why he is called a Giant among men. I think this is on his tombstone. He was a worthless bum that would rather let his children starve than do menial work,(unwilling to walk his own talk) which is why I dont think much of him personally, not what he wrote, although I do not agree with everything he said..
There is no Utopia.
Aye,
What Capitalism hath wrought...
... through government regulation, restrictions, licensing, and selective taxation...
Something about this statement tickles my sense that something is wrong...
Which systems advocate control of the means of production through regulation, restrictions, licensing and taxation, again??
Which systems advocate the lack of such top-down controls?
That is how I saw/see it. Big problem with America is the same problem for Europe. Merger of private corporations and government is Fascism.
Big problem for humanity is government.
I'll buy that for a dollar!
Or is that... one meel-yun dollerrrs?
the owners of the banks have a difficult
path to legally and openly become the
owners of sovereignty and recognized
government, fitting that square peg
into the round hole. even for sharp
and angled men, impossible.
Zion's, and their government farm managers' most effective tool for plunder, keeping us divided.
Always about money, power (future money), and division.
Don't let them take it. Don't let them have it. And don't believe it.
The banksters need to repay us.
Stop! They're both right!
Problem is, where is "da establishment"? Remocrats and Depublicans. Upstairs, with their pants around their ankles.

You have to have one of them completely demolished and then the whole problem is solved. Note that if you leave even a single column standing, the building will still stand and function. So either demolish one whole first floor or leave one column each for both first floors and let it tip over by its own imbalance, or by the force of a mere breeze.
“The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.' ”- Ronald Reagan - 40th president of US (1911 - 2004)
“If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in 5 years there'd be a shortage of sand” – Milton Friedman, Nobel Laureate Economist
"The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks." – Lord Acton
“Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” - Lord Acton
“When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain.” - Napoleon Bonaparte
“I have never yet had anyone who could, through the use of logic and reason, justify the Federal Government borrowing the use of its own money... I believe the time will come when people will demand that this be changed. I believe the time will come in this country when they will actually blame you and me and everyone else connected with the Congress for sitting idly by and permitting such an idiotic system to continue.” - Congressman Wright Patman
“The real menace of our republic is this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under cover of a self created screen....At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as international bankers. The little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes. They practically control both political parties.” - New York City Mayor John F. Hylan, 1922
The idendity of the problem is given by the running joke, composing history and histories, consisting in the idea, that if all are under my thumb finally freedom will be the result.
If there were just left governments and banks that matters, we would see the joke operating here in sorting out the matter of concern.
The unifying element is the psychopath's game that spins on the logic of the fox in the hen house. If all the poultry is dead I'm relieved from all the chaos and cries.

Divided. Just the way "they" want it. Because: United we stand, divided we fall.
Big Gov has the guns to control Big Banks but not the integrity. Knock down dishonest,ignorant,self interested politicians and AUDIT THE FED would be a good start.
Ummm...the Tea Party sees big government and the big banks as the main cause of Americas distress. This cartoon is not accurate.
And yet the occutards get their funding handed out from that building they are squatting, raping, and shitting in front of.
occupy is financed by george soros through his network of tides foundation, etc
tea party is financed by conservative interests
no mention of the other beast - UNIONS!!!!!!!!!!!
The government in the US of A can be summed up by this. In 1953 'our' government came up with the 501c(3) exemption. Though churches were already completely exempt from taxation, they encouraged all the churches to register for this exemption. They did this because 501c(3) exemptions have rules. The important one being, no political free speech. Our government took the rules and morality of the church OUT of politics.
Banks can be summed up like this. Many ancient (and some not so ancient) King made usury (the loaning of money at interest) a crime, punishable by death. This was not because the Kings were just good people, they did this because if they didn't, and money was loaned at interest, in about 150 years, two or three people ended up with all the gold in the kingdom and the economy grinded to a stop. Though we don't have gold as money today (another scheme of the bankers), the same thing would happen with out fiat money. The only way to stop this from happening even with fiat money, is to continually have a new supply of fiat money enter into the system. This is what we call inflation.
And if you were Satan, cast out of heaven onto the earth, and you still wanted to rule over man as you wanted to in heaven, where would you place yourself?
