1. What part of free market capitalism would impose a Federal Reserve banking cartel by federal law that could loan into such a bubble?

2. What part of free market capitalism would take the US dollar of gold via presidential edict allowing for the unlimited expansion of money and credit into markets in 1971? ( https://wtfhappenedin1971.com )

3. What part of free market capitalism would have this state imposed central bank lend a trillion dollars into subprime via government created corporations Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae? And have them lend that to minority families, even if the banks deemed it not prudent?

4. What part of free market capitalism would have this state imposed central bank loan money into a housing bubble at 1.5% APR? Do you know any capitalists who are satisfied by a 1.5% APR return on investment?

5. What part of free market capitalism would have this state imposed central bank cover counter party risk on CDO's, also causing CDO insurance to become mis-priced, until it didn't?

3. What part of free market capitalism would require a billion dollar FDA approval process for all medicines, even ones already used in Europe?

4. What part of free market capitalism would effectively grant the pharma industry government imposed patent cartels?

5. What part of free market capitalism would require you to have all your competitors grant you a "certificate of need (CON)" before you can build a medical facility?

6. What part of free market capitalism would require a doctor with a 7 year medical degree to be present to treat ailments that are treated by nurse practitioners or dental assistants in almost every other country on the planet?

7. What part of free market capitalism would forbid doctors with medical licenses from competing across state lines?

8. What part of free market capitalism would forbid medical insurance companies from competing across state lines?

9. What part of free market capitalism would have state and federal governments throw 2 trillion dollars per year to the medical industry?

10. What part of free market capitalism would forbid community organisations, like churches, from hiring their own private doctor or dentist to give regular checkups to their members?

11. Why is it that when I bring my dog to the vet, it gets xrays, surgery, treatment, and medicines right there, in office, on the same day if necessary, without having to see 10 different specialists, run around to 5 different medical facilities, and get 50 unnecessary tests?

12. Why is it that less regulated areas of health care like cosmetic surgery, or lasik eye surgery, continue to see constant improvement and constant price declines while all the other sectors of health care don't?

First, many elites engage in regulatory abuse. That is, rather than use regulations to protect people, they push the government to put in regulations that limit competition, drive up profits, and enable price gouging. It is rampant in the medical industry, for example, why do you need your competitors to issue you a "certificate of need" if you with to build to build a medical facility? Why is the commercial import of generics illegal? But even simple things like zoning laws do this, for example, you build a building and them petition for a bunch of zoning regulation to make sure other competitors can't build similar offices near by. Another example was Buffett, and how his train monopoly benefited greatly when Biden shut down the keystone pipeline.

Second, many of the elites ride on the Federal Reserve gravy train. Rather than actually producing wealth in the economy, they surf on a wave of endless (effectively) printed up money to drive up their real estate, assets, and stocks. Since most people make most of their income working, they will always be at a disadvantage. Centralization of money and credit is plank #5 of the communist manifesto, not the capitalist one. This always creates elitist systems because the printed up money always ends up in the hands of the elite, long before it reaches the people. When the 2008 crash happened, mommy government ran to the rescue of the banks with a trillion dollar bail out. What kind of free market economy would do that?

Sometimes we can buy real estate and stocks and play the market to counter, but the simple truth is that we will always be last in line, and will always be put at a competitive disadvantage.

Every single one. Morally bankrupt and financially bankrupt. The police/FBI, the border, the military (and the wars), the schools (from primary through college), health care, housing, welfare, social security, infrastructure, money and the economy. It's a complete disaster across the board. At some point, we are going to have to take a close look at every premise we ever thought we understood. Every part of government is a failure. At some point, we have to realize that any solution that works is not going to be in them, but in us getting away from them. Once we deal with that, then the other cultural problems will solve themselves.

Proposal, the 500 counties project:

The idea is that we get at least 500 counties to agree to leave the union, once we reach the 500 counties threshold, we pull the trigger and leave the union. Not as another country, but as an alliance of 500+ independent nation sates.

To join the project, every county would have to agree to the implement the following laws, when the trigger is pulled, with a hand counted 2/3 vote

1. reassert that free speech means free speech, free religion means free religion, and the right to bear arms means the right to bear arms, and that the right to engage in peaceful exchange and commerce is a human right, and that a crises can not be used as an excuse to whittle away or deny the rights of the people

2. get off federal taxes, make it a felony to share tax info with the federal government, or to withhold taxes for them

3. get off federal debt, nullify all debt from outside governments

4. get off federal border controls, make it so each and every county has a sovereign right to control its borders, and specifically to kick out people who derive most of their earnings from outside governments

5. get off federal law enforcement, make it a felony to engage in federal law enforcement within the county limits, and enforceable within all 500+ counties, for any other of the 500+ counties/countries

6. get off federal money, assert the right of individuals to have money not controlled by the state, and require all transactions, banking, retail, pay, rent, mortgages, and contract to be denominated in goldbacks, a goldback being defined as 1/1000 th of an ounce of gold. Transactions can be tendered in any currency desired, but have all pricing and contract defined in goldbacks. Outlaw central banking, or any institution has the effect of acting like a central bank

7. privatize all education and outlaw government regulation of it, parents who can't afford education may be allowed to get help

8. kill off federal "health controls", forbid government control of health care, require the government to prove the need of any medical regulation on an ongoing bases, and require that medical professionals recognized in one county are recognized in all of them

*Fact. Slavery had existed for tens and thousands of years, but within 100 years of the US founding, it was gone.

*Fact. Even when the USA had slavery, they were treated much more humanely than other places that routinely castrated men and murdered "inbreeds".

*Fact. The US population was 90% white at the time slavery ended.

*Fact. The US was among the first countries in the world to end slavery, not one of the last, and it sill happens in Africa to this day.

*Fact. Several hundred thousand white Union troops died fighting the civil war.

*Fact. Institutional segregation and racism has existed since the beginning of the human race, and still exists in many countries today, but was ended in the USA over half a century ago.

*Fact. The population was over 80% white when we ended institutional racism.

*Fact. Interracial marriage and dating has been increasing for several decades.

*Fact. There are somewhere around three quarters of a million black millionaires in the USA.

*Fact. Black people in the USA make about 10 times what black people in Africa make on average.

*Fact. From Sports, to TV, to the Movies, to Music. Black people tower in all parts of US culture.

*Fact. From the President, to military commanders, to senators, to judges, to congressmen, to governors, and all civil service jobs, black people play a prominent role in all parts of US law and governance.

*Fact. The USA is one of the most multi racial countries on the planet.

*Fact. Less than one out of 50000 Americans identifies with the KKK and the fascists, they are among the least relevant demographics in US society.

*Fact. The democratic party was the party of slavery, of the KKK, and legal segregation.

Yet today, the left wants you to believe that somehow all of their failed programs have nothing to do with holding black people back, but it's the white people instead. Bullshit, not even black people believe the bullshit anymore.

*Fact. Black people voted for Trump in record numbers (for a reason).

The fact is that it's time that we put the race baiting bullshit behind us, and move onto getting the government off the backs of the people so we can create systems that are accountable to the people, and not to government elitists.

The thing is, if we don't do something about the money printing and the income taxes, it's going to create a situation where the federal government pumps in an infinite amount of money into the blue states bailing out their reckless behavior, while the rest of us pay for them with excessive inflation and income taxes.

I suggest one nullification strategy would be for the red states to require all employment to be 1099, forbid IRS withholding and seizures, and remonetize gold. This would stop the inflation tax, and stop making peoples employers an effective agent of the IRS, and put the population in a proper adversarial relationship with the federal government.

... to $1000 per hour, that way people will get this stupid idea out of their head once and for all and every job will become a black market job. No more social security taxes, which I know I will never see a penny's worth of anyhow, no more tax withholding or reporting my income to an illegitimate government. No more filing 1040's and acting like they are doing me a favor when they give me back some of the money they stole from me. Also, it would force the government to either massively lay off the bureaucrats, or pay them so much that the illegitimate system collapses within days anyhow. Plus, unproductive leftists would be the first to be fired, or given a pay decrease when forced onto the black market and actually get a taste of what their real worth is.

... and if anything, give vouchers to the parents. We will never be able to move forward until we realize once and for all that government in education ruins kids.

Period!

The US constitution specifically says gold and silver are the only allowed government money. The court specifically blew this off because they believed that using the fed as a tool to finance the system would benefit them financially, and enhance their power and prestige. Of course what has really happened is that it has enabled government to blow off any market accountability to being productive. Our fake markets constantly create bubbles, and our government continues to get financed at the expense of the middle class no matter how reckless and incompetent they are. If the market continues on at all, if the middle class grows, it's only in-spite of the government not because of it. Every day, the government becomes less and less accountable to the real world, and every day we become a little bit more poor, and a little bit less free. The system is just going down the path that has been set in place decades ago, if not over a century.

No matter how the leftists try to play people against one another, it's always better to be a tribe centered around freedom than around race.

This way, during the next election cycle, they can claim that they honestly believed that Trump didn't win, but that they are on Trumps side because they voted to acquit him.

The fundamental problem here is that we are constantly financing our enemies through the inflation tax. Tens and thousands of government employees, tens and thousands of federal law enforcement and deep state agents, tens and thousands of large corporate officers financed by stock buybacks and ever escalating stock prices. All of them are beholden to the system, which has been driven by politics and not the market, since the 2008 bailout.

We simply must end the fed to move forward. Maybe it will end through revolution, or through the political process, or through separation of the states, or through financial disaster like a currency crises, or people leaving the system by the millions using alternatives to the US dollar like gold and crypto. I don't know the best path forward, but we should be looking at all options to break free for the sake of our futures and our kids futures.

(latin translation) Do not give in to evil but proceed ever more boldly against it!

I love large industry, and economies of scale. Yes there was always some "unpureness", but overall they did great things for society, and society rewarded them with great wealth, and I so was happy for them to have it, because every penny they got represented something great they did for society.

Now I hate them. The very love of freedom and free enterprise that built them up, made them great and caused me to love them, has been abandoned it like it is used garbage. What gives? What did Obama say to them in those high level silicon valley meetings? What caused them to turn their back on the very free market that enabled their enormous wealth? Are they unable to see that they are destroying the foundation their house was built on?

Part of the problem is that the market has been dead since 2008. From the moment the banks were bailed out, capital has been allocated into the market by political forces instead of market forces, and everything has been unraveling since then. Slowly at first, but now very quickly.

The elites in all these industries are the smartest people in the world, it saddens me so few can see that this can not be the path forward. It saddens me that so few people understand that we need to ween ourselves off dependence on the state, and the Federal Reserve. The state sells us the con that they can allocate resources more thoughtfully and efficiently than individuals with their own private capital, and the fed gets us addicted to the cheap financing we long for. They are like a con man and a heroin dealer pretending to be our friends, but are really out to take everything we have and destroy us in the process.

At some point, we have to find our character and say enough is enough. The alternative is death.

END THE FED !!!! It's not a coincidence that the more they bail things out and finance government, the worse things get.

You see, a lot of these large banks play this game where they "effectively" borrow money from the central bank at say 1% APR, and buy US Treasuries at say 2% APR. This is basically a way for the fed to give printed up money to the banks, and to finance the government for free. However, things like gold and silver which are a direct competitor to the US dollar for reserve status are a big threat to their profitability in these trades, so they willingly short the gold market, even if it means risking losses. Other countries around the world who know what's going on go along with this to stock up on their gold reserves at below market costs. Everybody wins, except for the people who want honest money, and who try to protect their savings by using gold.

If you blow up this short trade, then everybody is going to panic into gold. Also, the US central bank can only hope to bail out the losses of the banks by printing dollars, but that will drive the price of gold even higher. Then as the gold price rises, other countries will dump dollars and buy gold for reserves, driving the price even higher. Then, at some point the federal reserve will realize that they have to save the dollar, and you do that by ding, ding, ding, buying gold (and silver) on a massive scale to prop up the value of the currency and implicitly back it with precious metals.

We could literally wake up one morning to find every bank and government in the USA is bankrupt, and the price of gold is over 10000 per oz.

Then maybe, just maybe every market wouldn't be a damn casino roller coaster ride zoo fest and people actually might put money into jobs instead of stock buybacks, and playing financial games.

I also don't give a crap about saying "i told you so" to the moron leftists, they'll figure it out on their own given enough time, but that does nothing for us.

To succeed, we need to secede.

Lets face it, 90% of email goes through a few providers like Microsoft, google, and yahoo. They already have access to what we read, write, and comment on. They already have sophisticated tools to block unwanted content in spam and such, and sophisticated AI to analyze email for content.

I could see them banning alternatives like protinmail for "hate speech", blocking email accounts that don't meet "community standards", and also blocking certain words in email. They have even already developed the technology for China, which does it already. It doesn't seem like it's that far of a reach.

Make it illegal to withhold tax money for the federal government, make it illegal to share information with them, make it illegal for them to seize property or to aid them in seizing property, and to make it illegal to assist in prosecution of federal tax "crimes". make it illegal to follow orders to freeze assets or accounts.

After that, we need to have state money or agree to an alternate currency so the fed can't kill us with the inflation tax while they print up money for all the blue states. States and counties should seriously consider requiring prices, contracts, pay, fuel, mortgages, and rent to be denominated in goldbacks, even if they accept tender in some other currency.

Half the problem is that since the gov already takes most of our income before we even see it, it becomes much harder to foster the proper adversarial relationship with the government and see them for the thieves that they are. Once people see the true cost of government, like a private company, their attitudes will be subject to change a lot.
