- henri3, on 02/05/2009, -1/+30only 52 diggs? I know there are more than 52 people Fed Up with the Fed Reserve.
- GlobalRoamer, on 02/05/2009, -1/+28Nine months after the United States adopted a central banking system the "Great" Depression started.
- chupavacas, on 02/05/2009, -0/+26True, however easier said than done. There's a reason why legal tender laws and central banking go hand in hand. The central bankers need the money monopoly in order to manipulate the currency. Ron Paul's call for competing currencies therefore strikes right to the heart of the Fed. If we were able to accept other currencies we'd have a fairer market for those currencies and the Fed wouldn't be able to destroy all of them, just the one they have control over.
I've often thought what would happen if Americans suddenly started to accept any (or the best) foreign currency for payments. I think that the Treasury Dept would swoop down and prohibit it ultimately because it would as you say, bleed the vampire.
The one thing that wouldn't change is what currency we pay taxes in, the empire would always insist that Fed Reserve Notes are used. - naderventura, on 02/06/2009, -1/+21I am drinking some good beer to this post*)
Lets hope it ends up on the front page.
Digg it patriots*) - Richandler, on 02/06/2009, -1/+18Central Banking allows the government to spend money without the approval of the people. It does far more harm than it has ever benefited.
- roho76, on 02/06/2009, -1/+16This is the most important issue of our time. With the destruction of the Fed will come true prosperity in the US and all around the world.
- Lawofnations, on 02/06/2009, -2/+16I've been cashing my paychecks for lawful gold and silver dollars for over eleven years and have been successful at spending it for whatever goods and services I need in my community. I pay no income tax as the coin is not defined as "income". I don't need to wait for HR833 to pass and don't really care about the depression as my money is sound (see: Gold Bullion Act of 1985 and Senate Report 93-549). The merchants I transact with are quite aware now of the Fed's crimes and how their fiat currency is losing it's value at an alarming rate.

- GovernmentSp00k, on 02/06/2009, -1/+13Can we simply ignore what gets our panties in a bunch so much and instead read topics that interest us without having to make unsubstantiated judgements and dumb stereotypes on others we don't comfortably agree with?
- RonPauls, on 02/06/2009, -0/+12How does this work exactly? How can I cash paychecks into gold, then not have to pay income tax on the paychecks? thanks

- GovernmentSp00k, on 02/06/2009, -1/+11"The size of the lie is a definite factor in causing it to be believed, for the vast masses of the nation are in the depths of their hearts more easily deceived than they are consciously and intentionally bad. The primitive simplicity of their minds renders them a more easy prey to a big lie than a small one, for they themselves often tell little lies but would be ashamed to tell a big one." -Adolf Hitler
Look what that ***** got away with.
9/11 is a BIG LIE http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg7/awakenyourm ... - inactive, on 02/06/2009, -1/+11Lol, you actually believe in the government fairy tale of 9/11? Oooh, scary Al Qaeda is out to get you! I bet you jump out of your skin watching the news.
Learn some physics, do a little research and stop gobbling up lie after lie from politicians.
Look at your comment history. See a pattern? Post a stupid comment, get buried, repeat.
Get with the program, man. - vbullinger, on 02/06/2009, -1/+10I'm sorry, I'm missing something. The Federal Reserve was created in 1913. But the Great Depression started in 1929.
I mean, end the Fed and all, but I think I'm just missing something. - Arlo003, on 02/06/2009, -1/+9Check this out...
http://www.FreeLakotaBank.Com - muckemuck, on 02/06/2009, -0/+7They're doing a pretty good job of destroying other currencies and propping up the dollar these days.
It's not just the Fed all alone in the world. The central bankers from around the world meet, plan, and work together. - Lawofnations, on 02/06/2009, -1/+8Gold and silver coins are the only forms of money in the United States defined in law as money and dollars [see: Title 31 U.S.C. section 5112(a)]. The big question is: What are they good for? In short, no matter how you look at it, money stores labor. You may use the money to spend as you wish since you own your labor. The dollars are not taxable as they are not defined as "income". Aquiring them is easy.
Take your paycheck to the coin dealer and write on the back: "Redeemed for Federal Reserve Notes - parity of value unknown." This qualifies the check. Then write "Pay to the order of (insert name of coin dealer)" and sign it. The coin dealer will give you your choice (or both) gold and silver coin and a receipt showing what you received cash in hand. The receipt is evidence of what you were paid and is the only document that accurately proves how much you were paid. Now go out and spend the coin. Two movie tickets, popcorn and two sodas are one silver dollar. A haircut is one silver dollar. Dinner for two at a nice restaurant, with wine, is four silver dollars. One months rent is twenty-five gold dollars. The look on people's face as they pocket the coin: priceless.
If you choose to cash the dollars in for worthless securities [see: IRC 165(g)] I suggest you wait until you get a better return. As there is no paper trail evidencing that you redeemed the gold and silver for paper then the so-called government cannot tax you.
There are companies that pay in gold dollars. One of the earliest examples is owned by Robert (Bobby) Kahre. You may want to do a search on his name also should the spirit move you.
I should warn you that one should be discreet about using the coin; merchants tend to stop what they are doing when they see you walking into their place of business, smile and move you to the front of the line, and then wait on you personally. Waiters fuss over you. Friendships and honest business relationships are established. People in the community recognize you not only for being astute, but a patriot and a good citizen as well for securing your neighbors economically. Once they understand there is an advantage they will take to it like ducks to water.

I should also mention that you should avoid the ten dollar one quarter ounce gold eagle coin. It doesn't meet the criteria of the equal weights and measures clause of the Constitution. A quarter ounce logically would be $12.50.
Also, when you spend the coins try to keep updated on the current market value. If you receive a silver dollar at eighteen bucks then do your transaction at that amount. In only a few instances has a merchant told me that they would only accept the coin at the value that they can cash them in for back at the coin dealer. This is called an "unjust enrichment". Politely say: "Thank you, no" and move on. Patronize only people that conduct themselves in a forthright manner. Remember that with your rights and liberties is an inseparable obligation and responsiblity to conduct yourself honestly and with an understanding that your fellow citizens have the same rights as you. - inactive, on 02/06/2009, -0/+79 Fed months = 16 human years

Money bomb on Feb 21st - RonPauls, on 02/05/2009, -2/+8talk about getting "knocked up"....
we need an abortion - simplyintricate, on 02/06/2009, -1/+7I wouldn't necessarily say economic theory can equate to a conspiracy theory. The fundamental ideas of the central bank is what really causes us to dislike the thing.
Conspiracy would be a completely different thing..
Get your terms right - Robjayne, on 02/06/2009, -1/+7I think you need to barrow my tin foil hat. I havn't seen insults in tha above.
- kemp34, on 02/06/2009, -1/+7There are multiple reasons to dislike the Federal Reserve.
Even if one totally rejects any conspiracy theory, there are still SIGNIFICANT reasons to be against the Fed. - JKap, on 02/06/2009, -0/+5Comment by soyuzsovetskikh buried as adolescent trollspam. Shhh...the grown ups are talking now.
Can you stop posting your 'tin foil hat crap' in support of the communist 'federal reserve' system that is destroying our prosperity and the kooky conspiracy theory that 19 Arab Muslims with boxcutters 'collapsed' three (3) steel-framed high rises with two (2) aircraft, penetrated the defenses of the U.S. Military Command Center (Pentagon) with another alleged aircraft, and crashed another alleged aircraft in Pennsylvania—all without the military being notified (allegedly).
Take your healthy doses fluoride, mercury, Frankenfood, aspartame, MSG, and whatever else state worshipers insist is good for us all and get back in front of the TeeVee where you belong. - chessmasterjoe, on 02/07/2009, -0/+5Tired of waiting for the government to give your rights?

- inactive, on 02/06/2009, -1/+5Not sure if then needed to quote Mish in the article.
- kemp34, on 02/06/2009, -0/+4It's not $50 for an ounce. It's spot plus $5, which is similar to buying a Silver Eagle.
- maccoup, on 02/11/2009, -0/+4Thats why their going for a one world currency under the new world order that they really are.
- Lawofnations, on 02/06/2009, -1/+4Maybe the dingo ate your baby.
- maccoup, on 02/11/2009, -0/+2No the fed is the new world order.
DEFINATELY NOT HUMAN. - roho76, on 02/06/2009, -2/+3Do not invest in this place. It is not owned by the Lakota Indian People and is just another scam. Buy Gold and Silver from apmex.com or some other Precious Metals dealer but don't use this place. It's $50 for an ounce of silver. What a ***** rip off.
- inactive, on 02/08/2009, -8/+2Wake me when it's over, I guess. I've know enough history to know that the US economy wasn't all wine and roses before the Fed.
- inactive, on 02/06/2009, -7/+1Amazing. This GIF proves that nine eleven is a lie.
I am being sarcastic, but I bookmarked that cuz it looks so cool O.o - inactive, on 02/06/2009, -8/+0How about you learn some physics, a lot of the myths have been debunked
- inactive, on 02/06/2009, -17/+2Why don't you bastards stop insulting me because I disagree with you
- inactive, on 02/06/2009, -19/+2Can we stop posting this crap from WND and all these tinfoil hat websites. The "upcoming news" section has been polluted with 9/11 troofers
- vault, on 02/06/2009, -19/+2There is no popular uprising against central banking. What there is, is an awkwardly-coordinated effort of internet conspiracy theorists who oppose all forms of authority blaming the Fed for every problem in their life.
