Not cruel.

Your facts provide the basis for a proof of concept if anything.

Look at your cash. It is not an American dollar bill. Those don't exist. What we have are bank notes from a private bank. The Federal Reserve is just like Wells Fargo, it just has a fancier name. It is private bank that decides how the country's economic state. Scary, huh?

And those pictures kill me.

at this point sure, but eventually we will be hit something that we can't cure or fight, like a situation from outbreak. I'd hope we'd get help, just like I'm sure others around the world hope we could help them.

But yeah, ****ing idiots in the country can't take care of themselves, don't take responsibility for their actions... I guess I'm much too hopeful.


carry on

No, the credit crunch was caused by the subprime disaster which, had Greenspan been so inclined, could have prevented with little to no effort.

The Federal Reserve Bank is not a private bank, it is a government institution, it dictates the rates on everything, from your deposits in your savings account to the interest rate you pay on your mortgage.
