yes guys ... very good ... keep em coming Resources for knowledge to set people free .. the path to repentance and salvation We cannot move forward without acknowledgment of the mistakes of the past, otherwise we will only repeat them.

The start of freedom from Wall Street corruptions is knowledge that you are not the slave to the money masters, the banksters and the usury mongers who wish to promote "structural adjustment program" bail out schemes to pay the sovereign debt which goes to the "too big to fail and jail" banks accounts, back their interest from the Taxes and Services that benefit the common people, for the super rich do not need these services and proportionally they do not pay as much taxes (loopholes the size of Switzerland bank haven accounts)

We have been calling out this web of fraudulent debt, money as debt on interest to be paid to cartel of banksters, for a long time. and so many proofs for instance Another proof of Wall Street destroying Main Street , for obscene profits while destroying the real world The Dumbest Idea In The World Maximizing Shareholder Value http://www.forbes.com/sites/stevedenning/2011/11/28/maximizing-shareholder-value-the-dumbest-idea-in-the-world/ key quotes The “real market,” ... world in which factories are built, products are designed and produced, real products and services are bought and sold, revenues are earned, expenses are paid, and real dollars of profit show up on the bottom line. ... The expectations market is the world in which shares in companies are traded between investors—in other words, the stock market.... Our theories of shareholder value maximization and stock-based compensation have the ability to destroy our economy and rot out the core of American capitalism. .... until we change the theories, future crashes are inevitable.” “A pervasive emphasis on the expectations market...has ....introduced parasitic market players..... Bottom-line: capitalism is at risk American capitalism hangs in the balance, writes Martin. His book gives a clear explanations as to why this is so and what should be done to save it.... A large number of rent-collectors and financial middlemen making vast amounts of money are keeping the current system in place. The fact that what they are doing is destroying the economy will not sway their thinking. As Upton Sinclair noted, “It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.”

First, public debt drains capital from the private sector, which stymies economic growth. Second, the bond market no longer believes the country can repay its debt (partly because of the slowed economic growth). The market then charges the country higher borrowing rates, which leads it down a spiral of debt unsustainability. At the end of the 2010, the debt to GDP ratio was 94 percent for the U.S., 220 percent for Japan, and 119 percent for Italy, according to the IMF. Pento said eventually, these countries will either have to outright default or print their way out of their debt. Both scenarios, he said, will be deleterious to the economy.

Noam Chomsky still insists that Muslims perpetrated 9/11. He is a tool, a lackey of the military industrial complex whose job is specifically to pretend to be on the side of the People. He is a fraud.

Peter Dale Scott is good. Listen to his interview on KPFA Guns & Butter about Continuity of Government i.e. plans for martial law.

v good Var, that's the kind of of observations we need to move forward and I was just giving preliminary list to BEGIN research, and of course we understand that some of what these authors say is off the mark

and this is why we need each other for criticism, remarks.
