This big stimulus package is going to help a lot of people, but it’s a double edge sword. The money comes from the “Federal Reserve” but there’s nothing “Federal” about it. The Fed was created by Congress in 1913 but the American Government Doesn’t Own One Single Share. All the shares of the federal reserve are owned by private world/central banks.
The stimulus package is going to be a good thing for a lot of Americans but simultaneously driving us as a county further into debt. And the debt collectors are the people hiding behind the federal reserve curtain.

No such thing as good debt, but this is the type of debt that is "as good as it can be".

Drastic times, drastic measures. This is something that most agree is necessary, so there shouldnt be much balking about it. Yes, we'll have to pay it back, but if it keeps people alive, paying back will come (eventually).

Now, if the country was in less (to little, to no) debt when this started, obviously it would be less of an issue.

Hopefully the country learns from this, but watching the days of bickering about the stimulus plan and both sides trying to "get something for free" by sneaking it in, makes me think they havent and wont learn a damn thing. Or they just dont care about the people that "elected" them. Most likely both.

Without this debt, many people would sink for the actions taking by the gov't. Anyhow, in the most divided gov't we have had since the civil war, we had a unanimous vote. I don't know what more it would take. There is no such thing in our constitution that says we can't run any debt whatsoever because some people are opposed to all debt. it's not a thing.

We should be proud of the actions of this gov't imo. It turns out this thing is much worse then the flu, many young people are needing ventilators to live. I've never heard of a shortage of that equipment when it comes to the flu. It is a nasty silent invisible enemy. At a minimum, this time has bought us knowledge and time to prepare of masses of youth that will need ventilators. And moving forward, we will be prepared for the next time this happens. A lot of facets of the bug is far different from other epidemics, the ease of transmission and the length of time after you were exposed til the time you get sick are brutal brutal facts when added to the fact that so many people will need assistance to breath so survive. The debt and how they structure it is the least of the problems right now.

I guess I didn’t say it right; what I’m trying to articulate is everybody in America thinks this money is coming from OUR federal government and it’s not. The federal reserve is the biggest smoke screen on the American people; it is 100% controlled by foreign private central/world bankers. These private foreign banks own 100% of the federal reserve shares, thus control our government left and right. Congress sold us out over 100 years ago and most Americans have no idea. The Fed controls every level of our government and the Fed is controlled by foreigners.

Well it works for us and them, at a time it stopped working for us, we simply ban it and rebuild. Of course that would mean the end of the free market. So yeah the way we do it is horrible, except when you compare it to everything else. You have two choices, let the gov't own the banks or the free market. You can join greece, argentina, and portugal if you want. You can't run a modern country w/o it, people that try can't even access the money they think they have. if not for the EU greece would have already failed, and in fact is why stronger countries are leaving the EU, countries that are free market including the banks are the strong ones.

To guard against repercussions I do believe experts say have 10% of you retirement in gold, that's the best someone can do.

Our government owning the banks is a fantastic idea. Or at a minimum control 100% of the federal reserve shares.

I encourage everyone to read the book:

“The Killing of Uncle Sam”
By Doctor Rodney Howard-Browne!

It covers 200 years of global history outlining how we got where we are.

Government owned banks is the ultimate in governmental control. You set up a system with no competition. Ask yourself, when the gov't needs money for budget and they own the bank, what do you think the interest rates will be like? When the gov't is out of money to do things that stop a country from plummeting into civil war for food, where do you think the money will come from? Then you will beg foreigners for loans, but guess what, they won't loan it to you because your money is worthless. Even gas rich countries like Iran are dependant on outside trade. Those people burned 100 national banks because it Iran's policy of “economy of resistance,”. A single solitary US banking system would cause more pain for current US residents then you can even imagine, and add to that an uncertain future just like the Iranians have. In a country where people vote, no party would be elected by instituting such a thing. It is a very far right or far left position.

That’s a great point Mr. B; all I know is our country is going to be 26 Trillion Dollars in debt. In all honesty I don’t see an end to it.
The one lingering question I’m left with is what do we do when the debt collectors want their money and we can’t pay?

If we all stand up and say NO! You aren't getting anything from us they will fold and die. Especially if everyone does it, they can't pull money out of thin air and they depend on payments to stay alive. If no one buys repos and everyone gives up their payments within a week or two the banks themselves would be upside down and have to close their doors. Think about it.

I’m not talking about our little local banks around the corner, I’m talking about the World Banks and the Private Central Banking System of the globe. These are massive entities with unlimited power, they give loans to All governments around the world. And what they love is pandemics and war because they make a ton of money.

What the real problem is both sides are writing debt, the left writes debt for every entitlement they can, and the right writes debt for tax cuts. Bush Cuts taxes and goes to war, Obama expands every save-a-ho program he can, Trump writes debt for tax cuts and now Corona, so now the country gets to choose do we elect someone who writes debt for what we want, because for sure they will be writing debt. Those private banks are all fortune 500 companies, so we all own them.

If I had it my way, we would take back the tax cuts to the rich and put that money against the debt, and shrink every other gov't program except ssi, make work requirements standard. This way everyone sacrifices, but it's not really sacrifice it is taking more responsibility for yourselves.

The problem is, nobody with this agenda will ever get elected, and why we go from left to right and back and forth. All voters want something, and very few "want" less debt at the cost of their bucket list. No president with the slogan hey let's be grown ups and pay of the debt will ever get elected. We should concern ourselves with gdp growth instead. Within the "world system" we are doing the best we can. No doubt someday the thing will fall apart, till then enjoy the ride try and prepare for the fall.

I think this will explain some of that.


People like this need to go to ******* jail. Imagine endangering the entire population of the world because you’re on sPrInG bReAk. Absolutely disgusting, I feel bad to share the same species as them. “if you get corona you get corona” Yeah, have fun mutating SARS-CoV-2 and dying from it because of your own mental and physical retardation.

Gun Grab is under our noses right now. H.R. 5717 was introduced in the house on 1-30-2020 by Rep Johnson Henry C. “Hank” Jr. [D-GA-4] Ironically during this Covid-19 pandemic when the citizens are focused on survival. This in a new low and absolutely disgusting. Get the word out and fight this.

Trump will not let that pass

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the premise of that book is we should have even a more free banking system? With zero gov't intrusion? Would be in opposition to what hammer is saying, he's more worried about foreign influence? That book is more worried about your own govt's influence? dunno didnt read it.

We left the gold standard for a reason, it had to be replaced, next to zero people believe that standard can exist anymore. The supply of gold and all precious metals did not and could not increase to match the human need for funds. So if gold increases slowly but the population's needs explode, what can you do? Enter the debt standard, where your countries debt is graded against other countries debt. Sadly for US, the UK is the one doing the grading :)

Depends what your driving habits are.

If you can get away with conventional, Pennzoil Yellow Bottle is quite good. If you need full synth, see if you can find Quaker State Ultimate Durability.

And yes, Amazon is going to push off orders of non-essentials, on purpose.
