I just watched the video he linked (shown below) and it was worth the one hour.

Basically an overview of the corrupt nature of our monetary system, the video made a compelling case against the Federal Reserve. As you might suspect, I’ve seen and read a plethora of information on this subject, even having contributed a little in my novels Eye of the Pyramid & Power of the Scepter.

A few things struck me today when watching. First, more than ever, it seems undeniable that our current banking system has set this country, and likely the world, on a course of ruin. Second, and even more importantly, it invoked the contemplation: What can we do about it? It’s all too easy to conclude that the cancer has so intertwined itself with the body that death is a fait accompli - leading to an apathetic and/or fatalistic attitude, which then turns the mind towards other more pragmatic everyday contemplations.

Like many of you, I’ve seen the appearance of various freedom organizations, some over the edge, yet some right on point and spreading diligent educational and well-reasoned messages, perhaps best summarized by “Disband the Federal Reserve System”.

Slowly - and probably much too slowly - the message is creeping out over the bits and bytes which are the Internet. In my opinion, one of the problems in reaching a broad audience is that well-intentioned experts attempt to over-educate. A stark reality, the broader public has very little time to absorb information not specific to providing for family. So I ask myself, what is the essence of worth to the People in this message? Is it the compelling argument that the structure is inherently illegal? (appealing to the moral fortitude of the audience - probably and unfortunately thus doomed to failure). Is it that their purchasing power and their labor is being slowly stolen from them? (perhaps more compelling, but certainly not demanding immediate action - after all, the voting public is still surviving and still finding joy and sorrow in their lives… the Sunday football game, an occasional dinner out with the family, watching their children grow, etc.) So what is in the message that would appeal to the People and immediately garner their support? (tangible and immediate benefit to them and their family.)

If anything in the prior introspection is of value towards formulating the message, then it would tend to imply a simple structure whose priority was benefits to the People - then subsidiarily, giving the moral and legal justification for action.

Disbanding the Federal Reserve will:

1) Lead to a $10,000 per person deposit in your bank account. (Note: What is this number? Is it $10,000 or much more or less?)

2) Immediately cut your Federal Income Tax in half. (Note: What is this number? Is it 50% or much more or less?)

3) Give you more control of your Government.

4) Return this nation to economic prosperity.

5) Rid this nation of those who have been stealing from the People.

6) Restore the nation to a Constitutional Republic, the Rule of Law.

7) Let our Founding Fathers finally rest in their graves and provide a healthy nation for your children and your children’s children.

So for the sake of argument, suppose that a message of this nature would satisfy the elements necessary for obtaining critical mass (spreading like a wild fire to every corner of the nation). What then? Politicians and members of the financial elite - who benefit from the corrupt monetary system - stand to lose their death grip on the People. Would they simply submit or would they fight it with every shred of their considerable worth and influence? Obviously a rhetorical question, new considerations arise: Now what? We have garnered the support of the people, so how can we implement the change?

As a nation, we have recently watched in the full light of day as the media machine was brought in to deceive the People - fear mongering: this bailout package is needed to avoid Depression, etc. As a nation, we have recently watched as our Senators and Representatives ignored a call from the People and passed a piece of legislation replete with abhorrent pandering to special interests, and replete with the granting of even more powers to those who caused this financial travesty and those whose sole purpose in life is to further enslave the People. But note, the initial Bill did not pass in the House -  a bright light in this otherwise murky world. Thus implicitly, the question is fine-tuned and a course of action is suggested. The People must appeal at the local level to their Representative and Senator. If these Congressmen do not implement the will of the People, the People must must vote them out or if they are not due for reelection, they must take action to remove them from office (Note: What are the procedural issues here?).

I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but words that were held dear at the founding of this nation have become purposely associated with radical groups (often unjustifiable so) in the minds of the People : truth, freedom, citizen, liberty, and the list goes on. Thus, these words must be avoided in naming a benevolent movement or organization that can garner the maximum support of the People. Contrarily, what is an accepted word, perhaps the most accepted word used by the political machine? Change. So ideologically, the benevolent organization must use the programming that has already been put in place by the power elite - in effect, using their own tactics against them.

Worldwide, change is being forced upon us. More than any other time I can remember, the People seem ready to become involved. We, as a nation and as a world, have an opportunity to break the shackles of financial corruption, and reestablish the great principles that founded these United States. The future will be only as bright as we make it - with our words, our involvement, and our commitment to “Change for the Better”.

Comments, flames, etc. are welcome. As in my novels, I had no specific ideas how this post would turn out when I started it. May all that is good and just shine needed light on the world.

Consistent with the message herein, if you were going to share something of these ideas with people, it might be “simply” the boxed text above.
