Some say the Civil War was really the war against the Rothschild central banking cartel that ruled then and today.  When Lincoln refused their paper money at interest and then printed the Greenbacks interest-free, the USA was not beholden to a foreign power to issue currency when needed — just as had been done by the colonies when they separated from the British Crown. 

Few understand that the ultimate power in the world is to issue currency for a nation, and most every nation in the world is in debt to private central banks that are accountable to no one.  Lincoln may very well have been assassinated for creating the Greenbacks, for it would be decades before the banking cartel could pass the Federal Reserve Act thus capturing the US monetary power, making subjects of us all, especially the US government. 

If there ever be a World War 3, let it be over the rights of nations to issue their own currencies interest-free and end this economic slavery once and for all.

Ah, those were the days, eh, of Ron Paul!  If only Donald Trump had the same understanding of economics as Ron Paul and was a bit more Libertarian, then this really would be the Golden Age.

Nixon took the US dollar off the gold standard, Trump could put us back on!

Again, you fail to define 'appropriate' or 'civilized' by using introducing new jargon.  What is a 'dimension of life'?  What 'promotes' it?  This is what I am talking about.  This is pseudointellectualism. 

Be specific, give examples, PROVE it.  It's not enough to just declare your bloated sophistry as fact.  Sheesh..  This is exactly what Kamala Harris would do when answering questions — when you take her answers apart they say nothing, just deflect until the next question comes up.

Try this: go to chatgpt.com, ask it to rephrase your response and then ask it what, if any, are the arguments you are making.  Then see if anyone but you understands what you are talking about.  Ask ChatGPT what political ideologies do your words most align with — don't take my word for it.

Ask ChatGPT to ask you a series of questions to determine your political ideology and general philosophy, then answer them and let me know what it says.  Maybe AI can figure it out, because no one else here can.

No

Will the Republican Congress now finally dissolve The Department of Education and return the power back to the States?

What does any of that have to do with liberty, Fred?  You're talking about POWER being transferred from those that have it to those that don't.  Your technocratic utopia will have a perpetual cost. 

BTW simply stating what "we need" are not solutions, it's just a politician's trick to foment anger and covetness.  And who shall have the power to command those with the most power?  A dictator!  Sheesh.  Get it through that thick skull of yours that these great ideas of yours will meet resistance, and who has the power to implement them will become the most powerful in the world.  Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Besides, not everyone agrees, so stop stirring the pot already.

You cannot have democratic processes if one is not free to speak or vote freely — otherwise it's a sham.  Voting the liberties away from the 'minority' is the inherent corruption of a democratic state that places no guardrails on the rights of the people at large.  Some things just are not up for vote or legislation.

Classic generalizations aimed at feeble and unthinking minds, Fred.  What is "appropriate"?  Who determines it?  What is "civilized"?  Who defines it?  This is what wars are fought over — the details.  Typical politico-speak. 

Now you try to best Aristotle!  Gee, you must be the wisest man in the world — for you have not agreed with a single quote on this blog yet.  Let that sink in...

No, sir, I am neither 'Mr. Businessman' nor friendless.  I am blessed with many, many friends and family that I love and love me.  We vary in interests, politics, occupations, and live all over.  But we are family even if not related.  Because we don't all agree, we respect each other.  And because we have not authority to force our will upon each other, we let each other do as they see fit while respecting others do the same.  We're all different ages, have different levels of wealth and property.  But happy are we when we are together, sharing our stories, our recipes, our discoveries.  We might even disagree from time time, but we would never let that get in the way of our bonds.  Is this socialism?

If you are the only true socialist, who is "we' when you say "we can change you into adults"?  Who do you have with you?  From your own admission, women want nothing to do with you, so there goes 50% of the world's population.  You couldn't convince your family — sounds like you judged them pretty harshly from a very conceited point of view.  You clam to be practicing love and friendship, but call everyone a mentally ill child — I doubt you can count your friends on one hand.

I am not human?  I'm Mr. Businessman? ;-) Hilarious!  Is that what you have concluded after 4 years of my comments on Liberty, gratitude, a republican form of government, mutual respect of each others' inborn rights, taking responsibility for oneself, live and let live, acknowledging one's wholeness and the value of a spiritual path to "know thyself"? 

You don't know me.  I doubt you can ever know anyone with that kind of attitude.  Everyone in this world needs to love and be loved, and in that regard you sure sound like you have a long way to go.  And that is heart-breaking.

Fred, I disagree with your claim to be THE one and only socialist.  Who then are the hundreds of millions of those that claim to be socialists?  There must be hundreds if not thousands of socialist parties in the world today — and none of them are real socialists? 

Your definition of socialism is a hodge-podge of traditional socialist ideologies intermixed with Christian ideals minus the acknowledgement of God and the immutable rights that are in born and never subject to a vote.  From where will your socialist 'laws' come?  Is there any limit or check upon them?  If you are the only true socialist, are you then the de facto leader of true socialism?  Are you the Führer or Premier or Czar?  Where do the rest of us fit into your utopia?  Do we have any choices? 

Sorry, but what you rant on day in and day out is just not understandable.  But maybe it's just because you are so brilliant — like a Nero or others that claim to be above everyone else, the only sane voice in a world of 'mentally ill' useless eaters.  Sounds pretty socialist to me ...

Fred, I'm sorry you feel that way.  My disagreement with you is primarily one of ideology — your praise of socialism and my praise of liberty.  Since this is a Liberty Quotes site, the comments have predominantly been pro-liberty, unlike yours which make no apologies for socialism and its ills other than to say you are the one and only true socialist, full of empathy and sympathy.  Your projections upon me are hardly empathetic.  I have tried to engage with you respectfully, no matter how deranged you may come across.  I wish you well — in fact, please do seek help from a qualified therapist, even a liberal one, who may be able to help you with your delusions of grandeur and narcissism.

To deny that there are enemies to Liberty, is to shut our eyes to the legion of adversaries ever setting traps for our servitude and demise.  Never-the-less, we must take our stand and face what may come our way. 

In the immortal words of Donald J. Trump, "Fight! Fight! Fight!"

It indeed grieves my heart to hear of your loneliness, Fred, which doesn't surprise me and may be why you hang out here endlessly debating Mike and me.  May I suggest that it is your words and actions that repel women and family, and I invite you to let go of such stubborn ranting and try walking in another's shoes for a bit.

Speaking of misrepresenting people, you may recall that you often refer to the Founding Fathers as "sickos", have called me a "drug dealer and sex trafficker," everyone but you "mentally ill" while referring to yourself as "lucid and rational" and "I am, without a rational person's doubt, the sole representative of the healthy mentality individual on this planet."  And that is only in the last few days — you've been ranting on this site for several years now.  The Editor must be a saint!

I humbly prescribe for you some hefty doses of humility, gratitude, peace, and a willingness to empty your cup and start anew.  I think nothing but a rebirth into innocence can clear away such an ingrained mindset.  Throw off that abysmal yoke and taste freedom! 

I reply because you spam this list with so much pabulum.  Your narcissism in beyond compare.  Nobody here is buying your nonsense — nobody.  Why are you here? 

These are "Liberty" quotes, and you can be counted on responding negatively to each one every day, sometimes multiple times.  Your message is anti-liberty consistently.  It is full of hubris.  Your utopian ideas are not new, and are in fact, little different than what Hitler says in Mein Kamf. 

Yes, you are a socialist, no different than the other socialists that are responsible for the murder of 100's of millions throughout history.  Thank God you have no power, though it is not surprising because you can't communicate clearly.  I reply out of compassion for you, because you are indeed lost in the woods.  I'm sure you have loved ones praying for your sanity.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if people started using the word 'statism' instead of racism.  "You're a statist!"  "Statism is the worst problem in America today!"  If only statism was seen as the true evil it is around the world.  Statists call anti-statists 'racists' in order to misdirect the real issue which is the assumption of de facto rule by the powers-that-should-not-be. 

Conservatives are the true Liberals today.  'Progressive' liberals are statists and are the very real racists of today.  C'mon now, the baby-boomers were conned and were used as the power base to transform the USA into the USSA.  The power of the media over these last 50 years has been unmatched, and billions of people have been 'programmed' without their awareness.  THINK people, think! 

Servitude is still the biggest racket in the world.  Time to wake up to the truth, what's happened and happening, and the power of the individual.  We must awaken to the spiritual path, and make our heartfelt appeals to Nature's God and cast out the lies that bind us to a false reality.  'Know thyself!'

Mr. Archer stumbles from time to time, but he does eventually get up.  ;-)

Let us remember that freed slaves quickly joined the Republican party which was why the Southern democrats hated them so much — and still do!  A black republican is ridiculed endlessly by so-called 'liberals' of all stripes who consider them 'traitors to their race.'  I've never seen worse racists than white liberals...

Cut people off from the truth about who we are, and ignorance will manifest in dark ways, binding us to falsity.  The Golden Rule is golden for a reason.

I disagree.  You absolutely COULD be more coherent or clear, trust me.  It is the job of the speaker to be understood, not my job to assume or to infer what you might mean.  You aren't actually speaking with anyone, you are speaking AT us in a language I'm afraid only you understand. 

Rather than introducing new meanings to old words, how about speaking plainly in words the common man can understand.  The 'truth' isn't original, it's timeless, so you don't have to try so hard to impress us with your 'originality.'  You won't get anyone to follow you if you don't have their agreement. 

I'm afraid most of what you say is just so much noise... it's repulsive and off-putting mostly.

I am in agreement with you on this one, Fred.  However, the powers-that-should-not-be are all in.  Eugenics is pushed from the highest levels of governments worldwide and well-supported by the UN, all in the name of 'protecting' the public from having to support 'undesirable' classes of people.  Massive sterilization efforts have been waged against indigenous peoples, African negroes, Central and South American poor, inner-city blacks in the USA, European middle-class, Chinese of all stripes.  Euthanasia is now becoming standard 'medical' practice in Western nations — even for young people without illness or disability but merely because of depression or poverty (see Canada's MAID service).

To quote Sting: "One world is enough for all of us." 

To believe everyone but oneself is mentally ill is one of the traits of the mentally ill...

Interesting.  Thanks.

The only hustling that is going on here is yours, Fred, and nobody is buying it.  Heck, you can't even package it well enough to be sold.  Just a bunch of pseudointellectual generalizations, full of logical fallacies, void of substance, with a few stumblings upon fact only to be misinterpreted by your psychobabble. 

Seriously, take a breather before you have a stroke or burst into spontaneous combustion.  

Talk about insane... ?!
