The American Dream

[KimmyCharmeleon]

Found this half an hour long movie that begins with the American dream, and explains the history of banks, the Fed and IRS. Let the truth be told. It's a cartoon too so it's naturally awesome.

LOL all these videos are entirely too long, any chance you could just tell me the basic point of the movie?

 

[KimmyCharmeleon]

Banks = bad lol. Particularly the Fed.

I figured half an hour wasn't long, compared to recent Zeitgeist movie of 2 hours and 40 minutes lol.

you are born (tax deduction for your parents)
you go through school, get a job (pay the taxes your parents saved by having you)
you fall in love and get married (marriage tax break)
have children (the cycle seems to repeat itself)
you die (pay taxes to the state and federal government)
repeat

Oh yes, Banks = VERY BAD, hence why I have never had a bank account and probably never will.

It's basically saying that we are slaves forever indebted to an unfair system. But enough of me, I explain things badly. I prefer people to watch, it isn't a bad movie lol.

lol I'll probably end up watching it over the course of like a week, a few minutes here and there until I finish it, that's how I watch movies most of the time lol

Basically at times we are merely slaves without chains. That is the illusion shown to some to prove that we are truly free in this nation or any other for that matter.

Very good little cartoon, which nicely highlights the insanity of our economic systems.

Interesting how they point the assassination of JFK on the banking cartel.

man this video is pretty paranoid.

it's not really paranoia if it's reality - check around, this stuff isn't made up.

My bank is awesome at giving me interest to keep my money in it. Never, ever had a problem with them.


So, what, do you guys not save money or?

Interest paid for by other people.

A frightening large percentage of the world aren't in any position to save.

I suppose it is ones choice to be "paranoid"...



...but more often then not it would seem as if that "paranoia" leads to the truth about certain things.

if you look into the history of fractional reserve banking, this video has it pretty spot on.

lol do you really need a BANK to save your money? What happened to just putting it away and not spending it?

yeah maybe if you're in a 3d world country.



almost anyone can make a bank account.

that's actually a very good point.

I'm not in a position to save anything right now, but soon I should be, and I'll be buggered if I'm putting it in a bank.

when I say not in a position to save, I'm talking about financially. Of course anyone can open a bank account, but I'm afraid the reality is that VERY few people earn enough to live off, let alone put aside.
