Can someone find the video of Bernanke's speech (03/20/12)? Rare to see Bernanke stumbling reading prepared speeches. The propaganda is astounding. It's especially funny to watch his audience chuckle and laugh as he explains the problems with a gold standard. Then again, he probably just read chapter 7..

Thanks, OP. I assumed this program had already begun. IIRC, I heard a FED propaganda radio ad about it last year.

He looks like a smug a-hole.

A shallow statement, but true.

I'll die before anyone.. ANYONE can convince me that the fed is constitutional! Mind you, every day I have a constant battle with my liberal teach who is teaching me American Government, the students there just really don't care about their rights being gone away...

The boomers are gonna start dying soon. The 18-40 year old group have already voted FUCK YOU to central planning and The Fed...desperate mofo's go after the young. Nuff said.

He's not that good a speaker. He has a raspy voice and he stutters a lot.

That is quite frightening, but at the same time, I'm not surprised.

That's funny cuz I don't really get that vibe from this. To me, it says we are close to total takeover.

Why is it that so many people don't even realize that someone who has an interest (Ben Bernanke) in WHAT you learn and HOW you learn it, would deliberately twist the story.

"Oh, no, but theyz gonna edgemecate us"

But they're only going to teach you what they want you to know

"But, but..."

They're telling you the way they want things to be, not the way they are supposed to be..

"BUT THEYZ TEACHING US DA STUFFZ ERBODY GOTZ TA KNOW! DAHUURRRR"

Get your 25 free copies! I just did. They'll make for great kindling. (Seriously though- they apparently stopped printing the comics, so let's get rid of the last ones)
