    At which point will Americans realize that creating an unaccountable institution that is able to pass its liability on to tax-payers is immoral and attracts sociopaths?

    Good to see and talk to you Ben!!
    Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.

    The 5W basics of journalism are who, what, when, where and why. When investigating the "why" how hard is it to "follow the money?"

    I am a libertarian. I am advocating everyone enjoy maximum freedom on both personal and economic issues as long as they do not bring violence unto others.

    I do not have a question, but want to thank you so much for your reports..It is has been tough sometimes being a liberty supporter..so many are not and I have done alot of things in this movement but the one thing I have seen and opened my eyes to is the media sucks...It has been amazing to see your news and that we have you on the side of truth and the hard questions..I also love the fact that I am only one state from you in Fort Wayne, Indiana... and found you when you only had 500 friends on facebook...I hope you continue to spread the message of liberty as well as you have been doing.

    What will be the focus of your show? National interest? International interest? Would time be devoted to such mundane phenomenon like an abnormal amount of police shootings of family dogs over "officer safety?" Or would it be more political?

    I had lost all hope in journalist until I learned about you. God Bless you for speaking truth to power!

The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner

    Thx for all your top shelf reporting, Ben! Investigative journalism seems all but dead in the US yet you and Glen Greenwald have given it new life. I was wondering what you thought about Bitcoin, the crypto/peer-peer currency/payment system which is allowing people to escape the currencies offered by central banks across the world. Since it's such a cutting edge and evolutionary way for the common man to not be sunk with paper debt nor the associated payment fees a la paypal or wire transfers whether nationally or internationally, I think it would be an interesting episode to partially focus on and it would definitely draw in an international base of Bitcoin users that's growing by the day. More than anything, I'm just curious as to your thoughts on the subject if you have any.

    Btw, someone should post the Ben Swann signal (made by Barrex) we use around here in case he hasn't seen it yet.

    Well done Ben. I was also in the television business and you have a good career ahead of you.
