Ya, you are right. It isn't the richest one percent that the Occupy movement is against, it is the one percent that have come to own and controls everything around us by influencing government policies. I don't think people understand that we live in a fascist world, the banks control everything. Just recently the world kicked out two Prime Ministers in Greece and Italy and replaced them with bankers. The banks have taken over, central banking needs to end.

If only more Christians were like this guy. Ron Paul talking about the Christian Just War Theory http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=md1ynIJWrTU&feature=feedf

^old people... You should try listening to .flac, it is much better quality then mp3.

yes

yup, he got 89 seconds to speak the last debate.

I never said they were going to.

sweet, I am happy Hamilton won, the Bombers should crush the ti-cats. I think they may of lost if they were versing Montreal. I'm thinking Blue bombers and BC for grey cup.

Audit the Fed. I don't understand your logic, he isn't a racist. I disagree, people want change, Obama got elected on a message of change, Ron Paul is real change.

I don't see the problem there. How about just testing it out for a week or two to see if we like it.

You guys are not making any sense to me, have you ever listened to anything he has been saying? His understanding of the economy excellent, what other politicians where warning about a housing bubble prior to it bursting? None of the others saw the problem coming yet they are some how convincing people that they know how to solve the problem. I'm not sure how people claim Paul is an isolationist, he wants to talk and trade with everyone. If anything the current policies are isolationist, look at what the world is doing to Iran. Just because someone doesn't believe using bombs is the solution to stopping terrorism, that doesn't make him an isolationist. As for him being a racist, if you listened to his speech's on personally liberty, it is clear he is anything but a racist.

I stopped listening half way threw, the reason he will not get elected is because he is not racist?

People who support the Occupy protests, what do you think of the Tea Party?

I don't understand why more people don't support this guy.

Right on, if there is one thing I have learned in these past few years is how capable bankers are at running things, Greece should be back on its feet in no time.

Monetizing the debt is still bailing them out.

lol, how long you planning on living?

...well that will only fuck over the people who have savings in Euros. I know you won't agree with me but Italy should default.

You're missing the point, the current monetary paradigm is fundamentally flawed.

Now what should happen with Italy? let me guess, bailout...

Well this is good for me, I bet my friend some silver that the conservatives won't balance the budget.

I really don't think you do need that. If you really do want government controlled money, competition should be legal.

I always saw the chart more as Liberal and conservative on the X-axis and Totalitarianism and anarchism on the Y-axis. But yours sees past the politics of it, I like it. Just throwing this out there, OWS actually prefers to be called Occupy since it isn't just on Wall Street, there is occupy D.C, occupy central banks and others. I was talking to some of them, there main concerns is as I have come to understand it is they are worried about the concentration of wealth and power, they don't want money to affect the political process and a lot of them are against bailing out the banks. They do have different solutions but there are a lot of libertarians in the mix

He is right. He is not saying it is impossible for an individual to be debt free, but it is impossible for everyone to be debt free since there isn't enough money in existence to pay off the amount of debt in existence.

That is why I am against fractional reserve banking. If you have the banks loaning out money that was deposited in the bank, new money wouldn't be created.

If there was a free market economy, rates would go up on there own, banks would or should not loan money out at a time like this. For the most part I agree with dre, fractional reserve banking is a problem, banks should not be able to create wealth out of nothing. If the banks were not able to create money out of nothing then the market would not be able to become so leveraged and we wouldn't have the problems we have now.
