44. Everything done, including the fractional reserve banking system is a "fantasy"
until it is done, that is no reason for rejection. Banks have no reason to exist in their present form in the system. They are a parasite and completely unnecessary. The founders tried their best to keep them out of this nation.

You seem to think that this is the only possible currency system, it is not. It is simply a Ponzi scheme that has been run for so long, and so misunderstood by the average people, that most believe it is the way it has to be.

The Fed is not only run by a civilian, it is a private corporation owned by private banks and only nominally answerable to the government, and as we are seeing now, have gathered the power to work against the interests of the nation.

As for the value of the dollar, it is irrelevant. I'm sure as a Canadian you are happy with the current plight in the short-term, but it will bite you in the ass soon. Excuse me for being a little nationalistic, but we are essential to the entire world, without our market to sell into, your economy is reduced to subsistence. If the US adopts a new system, your country will follow and we'll all be far better off (unless you work in the financial industry at a pretty high level or are of the parasite class).



"Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes the laws." - Mayer Amschel Rothschild

"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
