I agree that if they shut down the banks yes, they hurt themsleves. Unless (as many believe) this is what the NWO folks want...you see the paradox.
But my earlier point was that we are all in the mode of Greed... when we talk about personal responsibility just how much are we prepared to take? I can find you millions of people on the planet who are not in a position to make their own reality. They are just hungry. And it's our fault. This reminds me a lot of the death of the Princess of Wales - oh how we cried...but who was buying the papers and reading the articles containing the photos? We're the consumers. we need to step out of this 'them and us' mentality and realise that we're all them, all us's - you get my drift. Deep stuff, but this is the 'reality' we have all made, in my opinion. |

Was this story economic terrorism?
Problem- Banks will close for one week Reaction- American Public: "Congress, do something to stop this NOW!" Solution- Pass (still vague) Bailout Bill Certainly we need to be vigilant in order to catch the PTB in or (hopefuly) before the "act". I think this eternal vigilance, though, leaves us susceptible to this sort of fear based pschological terrorism. I'm not saying that anyone here necessarily was duped by this scam (unless after hearing this news last night, you e-mailed your congressional reps and demanded the bailout be passed). FDIC insures your deposits up to $250,000 (recently increased from $100,000). Now I have just read that the FDIC only retains about $50 billion to cover $1 trillion in public funds. Even so, I always have enough cash to cover a week (at least) as I'm sure many of you do. I am syaing that ostensibly it looks like the reason the bailout was passed, was because of the sort of fear generated by rumors like this. We need to analyze the info we receive very carefuly, but even more importantly perhaps, the reaction to said info. Quote:
I like the end too. |

Listening to Zeitgist Addendum, it ocurred to me that all homeowners have legal grounds for refusing to surrender their homes to a bank. To the builders, maybe...but not to the banks...
