Amen Archer, close down the Fed. And every other central communist bank.

Spoken like the communist sheep you truly are Waffler. That it's being practiced all over the world is merely an indication of how great this cancer has become. And rather than rationalize that it's being done "all over the world", why don't we concentrate on our own back yard? BTW...it's the same group of elitists that own these banks "all over the world". Do your homework.

Booms seem to collapse on the back of easy credit. The last 10 (or more) years of The Fed's activities are the most recent example. Wake up America...you're being turned into economic slaves with no control of your own future.

I certainly find it repulsive.

It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning. Henry Ford ~ Reston I suppose if people were forced to use your software and no other, and you had the ability to flood the market with your software and devalue what everyone else already has...then you might have a point. Otherwise you've shown how very simplistic the nations's children have become. Public education is winning the battle against critical thinking.

Where there is official censorship, there is tyranny.

Censorship seems generally designed to silence dissent. America's free speech has been enshrined in law since the inception of the nation. Use it or lose it.

Excellent quote / Excellent sentiment. Would Reagan have actually been able to act on his thoughts had there not been an entrenched socialist bureacracy running the USSA? Sadly we'll never know.

Couldn't be more wrong Waffler (as usual). I'm for Individual rights...EVERYBODY'S Individual rights. And that is EXACTLY in line with the Constitution and the Founding father's. YOU are the one who is constantly espousing communist values, so don't even begin to tell em me I'm selfish. You would have us all in chains of servitude to your beloved Big brother state. You know here to stick your socialist values Kamrade.

Screw Globalism. Buy a gun, defend your rights, defend America.

Nailed it Cal! And I wonder what a denier is? Someone who doesn't believe the Holocaust happened? Or maybe he means someone who doesn't buy into the Man Made Global Warming garbage.

Robert, it might help to understand that we are not, in law, soveriegn individuals, we are "persons". Which is defined in our legal dictionaries as being an individual or a corporation. So when you are being referred to as a "person" by the IRS for example, you are a taxable entity, a piece of property identified as a number. Your corporate number is on your SS card. It works the other way around too, a corporation can behave as a soveriegn individual. Like most laws of control, it's vague and ambiguous so it may be enforced or interpreted in any number of ways on any given day.

Which is why we may be witnessing a return by the American people to being a nation of riflemen, before the Globalists come to disarm us and render action in the defense of our liberties, beyond our reach.

Good points all Waffler...except fro Gore he is an opportunistic charlatan getting rich on falsehoods.

"Given the RRR's atmosphere, it is small wonder that America no longer leads the world in math & science" And of course it would have nothing whatever of the great "dumbing down" of our children perpetuated through forced public schooling. And BTW I am neither religious nor conservative, at least not by today's measure of the pseudo conservatives who are no different than the socialist left. They're all the same now.

Laws and control...that's what our government has become...nothing but laws and control. Which by the way is NOT what made America Great. Freedom is what made America great.

In the atmosphere that Oppenheimer would promote, The Reverend Al would have been laughed out of the room. His dogma won't stand up to scrutiny and that's why they won'r participate in an open forum debate.

Wow, there are so many examples of this throughout American history...The Sedition Act right through to the more recent Tea Parties that never seem to make the news even though they are significant events. Audit The Fed...Gun Rights...Opposition to Communist Health Care...The media seems to have quiety imposed a ban on dissenting opinions. Unless of course they are promoting ideas that are leading to global government.

Amen Judith, you see this one through very clear eyes.

Sorry Judith, government has no conscience. In fact they are psychopathic. Its laws that need to change. Insurance must be accountable and detached from the government teat.

John, I don't believe we've tried free market capitalism yet. What you seem to be describing would be the result of crony capitalism. the system whereby corporations operate in conjunction with government. This could also be called economic fascism. Free flowing capital under this set up can flow to corporations or government it really doesn't matter...they just have different logo's. I believe what we need is to shut down the government's control of the issuance of currency, shut down the Fed. Then corporations will have to to truly sink or swim won't they?

Reagan was absolutely right about this. None of us have ever seen real free market competition as big business has been tied to government and central bank (slush fund) pretty much since Hamilton brought in the first national US bank. Lets not forget, the fifth plank of the communist manifesto is control of the currency and banking...and for good reason.

In order for private industry to function at its best it needs to actually be private. "Privatized" is a different word and it still has the weight of government attached to it. As long as government remains involved nothing can grow to be profitable or self reliant as Mommy is always there to bail them out.

Reston, given that what you are saying is the truth, it does come off as entirely contradictory doesn't it? Still the quote on its own is valid, too bad he didn't or couldn't act on it.

Reagan, like every President, had his flaws. But he did seem to understand some basic principles of life and liberty. he was right too...an economy is built by human action. Government action serves only to stifle and control prosperity and growth and it is meant to do exactly that. When someone subscribes to the false belief that Government has created anything they are unaware that anything created would be much greater without the drag of government ties to its ass.
