Good video, Qual. This is the bottom line: When you borrow somebody else's money, you have to pay it back with interest and under the terms agreed to. Greece is basically refusing to do that.
This is NOT to say at all that I agree with the way the fiat currency scheme works. I do NOT. I am deeply opposed to fiat currency, the concept of borrowing, the concept of printing worthless paper, and the concept of people being held responsible for what the government does, but what if every nation did what Greece is doing? The financial markets of the world would collapse, global war would quickly break out, and we would live in anarchy until a dominant force emerged.
Moreover, I absolutely do not agree with the notion that the government is the responsibility of the people. It may have started off working that, but it doesn't anymore.
Each day, the government commits countless crimes and disregards the Constitution. I constantly vote against the ba$tards and their bull$hit, which is as much as I can do within the boundaries of the law. Millions and millions of others share the same view and plight. How are we responsible for what the government does, when we do everything within our power to stop them? Of course, the Constitution makes provisions for stopping the ba$tards by force, but that is no longer a realistic or viable option. The government is out of control and too strong, organized, and armed to be stopped. We live under a brutal tyranny now!
