Hold Ben Bernanke Accountable
Dear Senator,
Last week, Congressmen Ron Paul and Alan Grayson sent an open letter to the Senate Banking Committee about the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke. I agree with their sentiments that, before he is reconfirmed for a second term, the Senate should know who got the $2 trillion the Federal Reserve has lent out over the last two years. Only then will the Senate be able to judge…

The U.S. Department of Labor Official Employment rate in September 2009 is now 90% (Unofficial rate is 75%).
And for those Americans who are still employed, they will find it harder to get that sweet deal on a new car because auto dealers won’t be competing with each other now that Brian Deese, special assistant to president Obama for economic policy made the decision (not the Chrysler…

Psychiatry is a NWO scam.
To ensure that psychiatry “permeate every educational activity of national life” and “infiltrate the professional and social activities of [all] people” was a global goal that originated with British Brigadier General Dr. John Rawlings Rees in a 1940 speech to the National Council for Mental Hygiene. He ended on an ominous note: “Though our knowledge be incomplete … I think we must imitate the Totalitarians and organize some kind of fifth column…

When war becomes peace,
When concepts and realities are turned upside down,
When fiction becomes truth and truth becomes fiction.
When a global military agenda is heralded as a humanitarian endeavor,
When the killing of civilians is upheld as "collateral damage",
When those who resist the US-NATO led invasion of their homeland are categorized as "insurgents" or "terrorists".
When…

As social networking becomes a dominant feature of daily life, the secret state is increasingly surveilling electronic media for what it euphemistically calls "actionable intelligence."
Take the case of Elliot Madison. The 41-year-old anarchist was arrested in Pittsburgh September 24 at the height of G20 protests.
Madison, a social worker and volunteer with The People's Law Collective in New York City, was busted by a combined task force led by the Pennsylvania State…

These policies need to be rewritten. Children who are just beginning to learn right from wrong are being severely punished for reasons they don't understand. School are teaching children how to be labeled a miscreant or criminal. Then the children are sent to reform schools? How much grease did someone's palm get? These policies can completely turn a child and his/her family's life upside down. Children like the one here can even become afraid to go to…

So far, Ron Paul has once again hit it out of the park on his points, resolutions, ideologies
and understandings of the topic he's addressing. In End the Fed Ron Paul goes into explaining
how it is not only fiscally responsible, but is also a wise choice for one to understand
money; it's value, where it comes from, how it's created and who is responsible for it. Those
who are stuck on the idea that "money sucks" or that "money is the problem", are…
