Ron Paul, CBS, and the Fed, as in Federal Express Kurt Nimmo / TruthNews | November 7, 2007 Kevin Drum, adult, has it out for Ron Paul:
No kidding. Drum used this noun—if it rates as a noun: “buttload.” And Mr. Drum is considered a columnist over at CBS. Drum pretends Ron Paul’s remarkable ability to raise millions of dollars for his presidential campaign “doesn’t really change anything.” In other words, no matter what Paul does, Drum will dismiss it because “Paul’s extreme, uncompromising positions really don’t mean a thing.” Let’s allow Drum to amplify:
In other words, libertarians, a number of them “technophiles” (i.e., they like computers and iPods, I suppose), are “infants,” they really don’t count, and the adults, like Drum, will vote for Hillary or Mitt or the sincerely scary neocon Rudy. Adults buy the same old crap every election cycle. Adults are authoritarians and libertarians are kids playing with toys.
Obviously, the man has a “buttload” of ignorance to spare. But then that puts him up there unfortunately with the vast majority of the American public. It is not Ron Paul’s fault “the audience plainly didn’t understand” that the Federal Reserve is about as federal as Federal Express, that is to say it is a private central bank. Mr. Drum, it should be easy to understand, even for the average American adult: the paper money issued by the Federal Reserve is fiat money, that is to say it is based on nothing, not on gold or, yes indeed, tin. Because it is based on a “buttload” of nothing—please excuse the plagiarism—there is no restraint on how much of it can be cranked out by Federal Reserve—as in Federal Express or Federal Plumbing. Because of this the non-federal banks associated with the non-federal reserve can create an unlimited, sky-is-the-limit amount of credit. But the more money that is printed the less valuable it becomes. Because it is based on nothing—not gold, not tin, not peanut shells, nothing of substance. It really is not all that difficult to understand, Mr. Drum. Even an adult sitting pretty at a “debate” or “town hall meeting” should be able to understand. Our money is not based on anything of substance. It is based on confidence—and once that confidence is gone, you have big problems. In the beginning, it is called inflation—and then its called hyper-inflation. Remember those pictures of German adults with wheelbarrows stacked with Deutsche Marks going to market to buy a loaf of bread for their kids? That’s where we are heading, Mr. Drum, and you may wish to poke a “buttload” of fun at Ron Paul, who believes in sound monetary policy, and call him an “infant,” and dismiss his supporters as technophiles and internet navel-gazers, but that will not stop the fact we are headed for disaster, due mostly to funny money printed by bankers no more federal than Federal Dry Cleaning. But then you work for CBS News, so your attitude is quite understandable. CBS, of course, was founded by William Paley, who worked closely with the CIA to turn corporate media into a government propaganda leviathan. Paley’s no longer with us but his effort works like a dream as corporate media and government propaganda are pretty much indistinguishable these days. In fact, one can fairly say the corporate media is the official propaganda wing of the government. Ron Paul would naturally put an end to all that nonsense. And no doubt that is of concern for corporate adults such as yourself, Mr. Drum. I mean, you’d have to find real work, wouldn’t you? And a job where using the word “buttload” as a noun in a supposedly serious and professional venue would not likely be looked upon as real work. CLICK ON THE BANNER TO
