spoken just like obama would speak it
it's the same people running the financial game in washington. replace bush, put obama in there, and nothing has changed. under bush, the treasury secretary (paulson) was a previous goldman sach CEO. Under obama, treasury secretary geithner is the previous president of the NY federal reserve bank.
it's a revolving door between wallstreet and washington, and when it comes down to it there IS no difference between wallstreet and washington. the bailouts weren't necessary...executive salaries for goldman sachs averaged $14 million annually, and the company's assets are worth trillions. the bailouts and tarp money for these crooks was nothing but compensation and robbery of the american public and guess what? Goldman is on-point to dish out $700,000 in compensation for each of its 31,000+ employees.
the same financial policies continue, and are continuing now, at an exponential rate. the banks RUN the financial system...a communist system, btw, that is designed to destroy the middle class
in the words of George Carlin..."it's a big CLUB, and you and I ain't in it"

You can put words into my mouth, but that is not what I'm saying. What I am saying is take a look at human nature my friend. This whole shangri-la depends on everybody giving and no one taking. People are greedy. Our whole lives we are taught to fight our instincts and still there are so many people who don't or won't. If we can stamp out greed and hatred this type of society may have a chance but until then.....

OK. I only read to like page 3 or 4 but the day this country lets Mexico or Canada, heck, even any of those European countries (Not Russia) take any part of the U.S. is the day pigs fly. It's far more likely the U.S. annexes Canada or Mexico. I've always thought we should just annex Mexico anyways. What are they going to do? Some say they are becoming all industrialized and they are an emerging economy. I say they're still an undeveloped third world country. Forgive me but Canada on the other hand with its 30 million all along the border is like a small town next to a big city. A suburb. All ready part of the U.S. No need to officially annex. Although I'd rather Mexico wasn't swallowed whole and divided into states but was treated like Puerto Rico and made an incorporated territory rather than states. I'm done writing but am going to unleash this post to hostile enemy fire. Au revoir.

I don't mean to put words in your mouth, but I am trying to define your fundamental arguments. Feel free to correct me where you feel I misrepresent you.
1. The current system is a form of salvery whereby we cannot choose to voluntarily disassociate with the central power.
2. A society where people are free to engage in only voluntary relationships is NOT a utopia.
3. Stamping out greed and hatred is not a prerequisite for establishing a stateless society. Please explain specifically why you feel so strongly that it is, otherwise we are not debating anything concrete.
I'm sorry, but if you are talking about free market anarchism, you couldn't be further from the truth here. You aren't even in the ballpark with this statement.
Well, it seems like the general consensus from pretty much everyone in this thread is that the economy will collapse. Interesting. What are you guys doing to prepare? Luckily there are plenty of people that feel the economy is fine and nothing will go wrong, these people will not survive. As a result, we will not have to compete with these people.

Once I begin taking distributions from my business, I'm going to begin investing more in gold. Don't really know though. It's probably something I should start looking into more.
