>>You seem to be very sure that this is all scripted, and that Bernanke is executing a brilliant premeditated theft. I'm not so sure of that. I personally think he's just a foolish academic idealogue that thinks he's actually doing what's best for the country. It just happens to play right into the hands of the criminals on Wall Street, and largely as a result of that, it will only serve to extend the pain for the rest of us.

Mises and the Austrian school remain well outside the mainstream.
The majority of people actually believe this Keynesian garbage.<<

completely convinced.

first, the WHOLE monetary system is a fraud and the end result is GUARANTEED to transfer wealth from the citizens to the bankers - all for doing next to nothing.

this podcast does a good job explaining why...

a couple other points.

1. keynes never advocated bank bailouts to the tune of $23.7 trillion. nearly 2x GDP to ones employers - you know they guys who pay his paycheck. *never*.
2. the big banks pay ben bernanke's salary.
2A. do you think they would put a man, who is arguably the most powerful man in the world, into position if they didn't control him? and yes, the bankers put these guys in - even if they cheat on taxes! the idea the president picks these guys is kabuki theater. even if he did, the banks own the president, too.
3. regardless of the cause, this is the greatest peace time looting in the history of Earth. usually that doesn't happen by accident.
4. this scenario has played out before many time - bankers vs the people. bill still covered this in great detail in his movie "the money masters." this is nothing new - except the stakes are even greater now.

this movie made an impression on me - it is history and i respect history.

their publicists are paid millions to develop plausible scenarios that exclude criminality - he's stupid (1599 SAT), he's an idealogue (to an ideology that doesn't even exist - giving his buddies nearly 2x GDP - NEVER BEFORE SUGGESTED BY ANYONE, EVER!!! not filing criminal charges for massive fraud... NEVER SUGGESTED!), he's blind (a 5th grader can recognize the unsustainability of growing debt a lot faster than GDP).

none of them stand up to reason. the simple answer is the crooks have gamed the system and set out to milk it for all its worth - their actions are 100% consistent with this thesis and ONLY this thesis.

they don't want the people to realize this as they may not make it into next week when the people revolt.

they hope americans ignorantly go broke and think it just happened - not that the bankers set up a system specifically designed to asset strip the citizenry (and this is a fact - it is what our current money as debt system does).

when 10s of millions are dumped into poverty and it is too late to connect the dots, then americans will connect the dots.

the whole monetary system is a fraud. it was designed as a fraud to asset strip society for the benefit of bankers.

how is that system working out? are the bankers getting ever more rich at a faster and pace? are the people being asset stripped at a faster and faster pace?

pretty good system, eh? these guys aren't dumb.
