Figleaf Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 There's enough greed and manipulation going on right in the open - we don't need to look for shadowy world conspiracies to explain what goes on. Conspiracy theories are fairy tales for adults. Sure, keep telling yourself that, if it helps you sleep at night. (Not that I buy into any Protocols of Zion type bullsh*t, mind you, but SOME conspiracies were/are real.) Quote

Or that the thermoses can keep hot liquids hot and cold liquids cold....how does it know...how does it know?" Thats because you haven't left the land of OZ or maybe "Wonderland". By the way did you graduate from kindergarten or did you 'flunk'? Quote
Michael Hardner Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Thats because you haven't left the land of OZ Oz was a much more conspiratorial land than ours. The wizard, you see, was a sham - the proverbial 'man behind the curtain'. I think you should indulge your theories, and continue to follow the yellow brick road.

TravellingTimeMachineSalesman Posted November 4, 2006 Author Report Posted November 4, 2006 Is anyone familiar with the function and activities of the "Federal Reserve Board", and why it was created in the first place? Quote
Michael Hardner Posted November 4, 2006 Report Posted November 4, 2006 TTMS: Is anyone familiar with the function and activities of the "Federal Reserve Board", and why it was created in the first place? Off the top of my head, I remember that it was formed under FDR to deal with a problem of bank failures, lack of confidence in the banking system, and families losing their personal savings. Now, I suppose, you'll tell me the secret truth. Quote Click to learn why Climate Change is caused by HUMANS Michael Hardner
jefferiah Posted November 4, 2006 Report Posted November 4, 2006 Here's the thing about conspiracy theories---the federal reserve, Trilateral Commission, Illuminati, Masons, the global elite. There may be something there. But what? It gets confusing really. Who is in on it? Who isnt? So many things written about it. So many sources. Hmmm....if I belonged to some sort of global elite my response to so many conspiracy theory websites would be to start my own conspiracy theory site. I would trade emails with the theorists, and suggest my own theories pointing them in the wrong direction. I could create lots of aimless thinking and have people theorizing and arguing over the wrong things. I am not saying this is whats happening. But if the elite are so smart, I am sure they would have disinformation to keep those who are against them running in circles as well. But the thing is all this stuff about conspiracies is too confusing to ever figure out anyway. How can I possibly be aware of what everyone else is up to?

TravellingTimeMachineSalesman Posted November 8, 2006 Author Report Posted November 8, 2006 The Federal Reserve is in fact owned by 12 private banks. What about the US National Debt that far exceeds their ability to pay? I wonder who do we owe this "debt" to? Quote
PolyNewbie Posted November 8, 2006 Report Posted November 8, 2006 Most of the debt is owed to bond holders, both foreign and domestic. Quote Support the troops. Bring them home.

TravellingTimeMachineSalesman Posted November 8, 2006 Author Report Posted November 8, 2006 The CIA, the Pentagon, the FBI and other agencies are subject to an audit by the GAO but to my knowledge the Federal Reserve has never been audited.

Seem they are virtually immune from jurisdiction of the US Congress, and the US Constituition. Actually... that's kind of intriguing. As someone that is involved in things like audits for a living and school, you've caught my attention with this conspiracy. Unfortunately, the Federal reserve is audited by PwC and their processes and controls by KPMG... you can find their report here: http://www.federalreserve.gov/boarddocs/rp...al05/audits.pdf So, sorry, no conspiracy there.

TravellingTimeMachineSalesman Posted November 9, 2006 Author Report Posted November 9, 2006 Then you want to explain why the "greenbacks" in circulation have NO gold backing? Why the 'feds' have a "free rein" to run up the national debt which is virtually UNPAYABLE? We are talking in the trillions of $$$$ here, want to find out who sits on the board of directors, please?
