    • Fiat Banking - Your supply of capital is limited to whatever arbitrary limit those who have limitless currency resources allow.
    • There is no 'law' - Only psychopaths who pervert just principals for their own enrichment while violently stealing your wealth, your future, and your life if need be.

    It is worth the hour.

    Travlyr,

    I'm into your video to 25:10.

    A couple of things about the way he looks at things troubles me.

    One is he talks about growth. How much of what he is seeing as growth is an illusion brought about by the counterfeiting of the currency?

    He was talking about the rising price of oil. How much of that is an illusion brought about by the counterfeiting of the currency?

    Somewhere I came across this picture. That was quite a while ago. Every time i have checked the figures it still works because silver coins are a commodity like all of the other real things we trade back and forth. The only thing that has been changing is the value of the currency we have been fooled with for a life time. Has the stock market or the economy grown? Or is it just boasting a higher price tag. You double the money supply and all of a sudden it takes twice as much and some banker or stock market genius is sure he deserves a big bonus.



    You can check pretty easy with this with a little fiddling around.

    It started out around 17 to 20 cents when I was young, if I remember right. Was stuck at about 25 cents for a long time, I'm sure. I've got a receipt here from 3-20-2012 for $4.599 a gallon.


    I'm back to your video. Not sure if I can do a whole hour.

    Travlyr,

    At 43:00 or something.

    The guy is saying the problem we face is going from cheaper sources to more expensive sources. The cost are going to be staggering.

    The problem I see us facing is that through the counterfeiting of the money supply. No matter how much hard earned money the, "We the People" of the world could gather together to build their world the way they want, others can fire up the fake money presses and dictate their way.

    N matter where your Aunt Martha has the cookie jar with her savings in it, they can not only find it, but suck the strength right out of it like a vampire in the night. Sure they double the supply through their counterfeiting and you Uncle Phil gets twice as much for his stocks but then the same people that debased the currency stiff him with a capital gains tax on capital gains that were and illusion.

    That is just their stealth, back-door socialism. Don't even get me started on their looting of the public held resources and infrastructure to the highest briber. The only people to get any money from someone out shooting for some food and coming up with bubbling crude were the Clampett's and a few hardy individuals in Alaska.

    This guy in the video seems to think we are going to have to give a little more. Maybe some will but most of us have had the strength sucked out of our capital to the point where capitalism no longer works.


    Back for maybe one more go.

    Energy for what? Drones; the Blue Meanies new flying glove?

    I'm feeling much better now.?

    Travlyr,

    Hear we go. He is saying use our resources wisely.

    This sounds like one of those things like how they would say the economy was going great. We knew it sucked. Turns out they meant THEIR economy. Not ours.

    He also saying use the resources with as little disruption as possible. I pretty sure disruption would be us getting our fair share. That might mean everyone having a say and clamping down on the use AND the resources actually being used wisely...

    but then I'm tired and may be jumping to conclusions.

    Last jab at it.

    Travlyr,

    46:44

    I made it about ten seconds.

    Oh ya so pissed I had to go back to see why I was so pissed. He says Mexico gets something like 40% of the income from oil and they are collapsing. (Remember. Oil companies are getting in silver what they've been getting in silver for long time. The inflation has sucked the little profit we all got by on down to dust.)

    See what I mean. Perfectly sound business models that have stood up to decades and some back to the beginning of time itself can't keep up with he back-door, stealth socialism allowed by the fiat fraud. They have went and done it.



    Still must go on a little longer.

    48:43 and I'm done.

    The guy does speak some truths...

    but they have cost me more than I'm willing to fork up any longer. I'm just not getting any return worth the investment.



    And that's the way it is.

    I'll suggest that you watch this series - http://www.youtube.com/show?p=dF9tP5...racker=show_av

    But at the least entertain this one...................

    Let them keep thinking Ron Paul supporters are just a little army. Every military strategy manual in the world has examples of the bad things that happen to arrogant commanders of massive armies that underestimate the enemy. They all lose. We will win because the human heart, despite its detractors, is meant for truth and freedom.

    I watched the video.

    If you take all of the world's accumulated knowledge from the beginning of time until 1 AD and expressed it as 1 unit, it took 1500 years to double that accumulated knowledge. Total world accumulated knowledge is now doubling every 15 months. And the rate is accelerating.

    Long term assumptions of resource usage are meaningless because they cannot account for this. No one can factor unknown technology into long range projections when things are changing so rapidly.

    What we can count on is two things:
    1. When supply declines and/or demand increases, prices will rise
    2. People will always try to reduce cost and increase efficiency.

    Alternatives will be developed. I reject the study.
