I'm no lawyer, but convincing someone to commit a crime (to the point of offering a ride to the future crime scene and building a fake bomb!) sounds like entrapment to me!

The Revolt of the Rich

"We meet in the midst of a nation brought to the verge of moral, political, and material ruin. Corruption dominates the ballot-box, the Legislatures, the Congress, and touches even the ermine of the bench. The people are demoralized. … The
newspapers are largely subsidized or muzzled, public opinion silenced,
business prostrated, homes covered with mortgages, labor impoverished,
and the land concentrating in the hands of capitalists. The urban
workmen are denied the right to organize for self-protection, imported
pauperized labor beats down their wages. … The fruits of the toil of
millions are boldly stolen to build up colossal fortunes for a few,
unprecedented in the history of mankind, and the possessors of these, in
turn, despise the Republic and endanger liberty. From the same prolific
womb of governmental injustice we breed the two great classes—tramps
and millionaires." - 1892 Populist Party Platform
WOW - just...wow.
WOW - just...wow.
I have no problem with
someone who earns millions (or billions) off of creating a successful
business that employs people and offers a useful product that is desired
by consumers.
What I have a problem with is the criminal element play casino games on Wall Street with OUR retirement money and mortgages and being forced via government to buy from businesses. That is not a sustainable economic system.
I firmly believe the best economic system would be a milder form of capitalism. Unchecked capitalism tends to create the situation we saw in the late 19th century with horrible working conditions, horrible pay and the creation of cartels or, in some cases, monopolies. The concessions unions and the middle class won in the early 20th century have been transformed into a crony capitalism where, in many cases, not only government and business work together (fascism) but union leaders collude with the two parties as well!

We're never going to see any
solid economic improvements until the Federal Reserve is abolished.
Yes, we had problems beforehand (see my comments above), but the Fed has
exacerbated these problems and caused new ones that will not go away in
a fiat-based monetary system.
When $1 is printed by the Fed, more than $1 is owed back to them via interest. It is impossible to pay off all of "our" loans because of this.

Audit the Fed
Regardless of political affiliations, this is important to all of us. Without getting into details of the corrupt, enslaving methodology of the Federal Reserve, the bank is able to function independent of any government oversight. Rep. Ron Paul along with Dennis Kucinich and others in the House have introduced a bill that would require the Federal Reserve to be audited. It has been introduced, passed through committee, and is now ready to be voted on in the House.
This is important, but it will only become a law if We the People put pressure on our congress critters. I just called my representative - it took maybe a minute to express my support for the bill and give them my name. That's all you have to do. You can find your representatives by typing your zip code in the box on this page.

Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs
Link to article
Keep in mind that Goldman Sachs has a rotating door with the president's cabinet (not just Obama's cabinets, but those of Bush, Clinton, etc.) and the Federal Reserve!

"Noting that the Fed will soon end because it is facilitating too much debt, the Congressman added 'I’m anxiously waiting for this day… Reform has to come.'"
YES!

Each time the Fed prints money, you are losing out. The more dollars in the world, the less it is worth.

The Wall Street Pentagon Papers
Link to article
This is a must read. It chronicles, in meticulous detail, the ultimate crime of a criminal cabal - the Federal Reserve. $12.3 TRILLION stolen from We the People & handed out to the bankers across the world at nearly zero interest. This is your tax dollars at work!
It's time to follow the lead of Andrew Jackson & kill this behemoth.
