The fed is a Ponzi? How about being honest?

The entire market,wall street,and the feds are all Ponzi scams leading into one huge scam,the world market...And because we believe we suffer and die for that belief the Ponzi has us in it's trance..The movers and shakers of the money system are just a few assholes.

There are many many,more of us a world full of(non-rich) people who have been financially abused by the over-wealthy to varying degrees,and many are just outright abused too.Because abuse,torture,domination,unwarranted obligation are things we are conditioned to accept.

We learn in school to obey to believe a grade means something,and to accept punishment by these arbitrary standards.

WE are broken inside after twelve years of social engineered conditioning,(school) until we are tamed to accept and even love the subservient roles and careers these marketplace manipulators foist upon us from day one and repeatedly tell us are so damn important to OUR well being,( for the rich and their life-style's well being, more accurately) and because we fuse who we are into what we do day after day in our minds it gradually becomes fused with the identity,and when most people act as if there is only one way to live,and this way of life none of us want but instead endure it implies deep down we are like bad children.

And we cannot survive without a 'authority figure' reigning us in,that we NEED to be led by ruthless assholes and when we suffer or fall into hardship and cannot pay the already rich,more,we must tolerate being hassled and hounded by endless red tape or outright harassment and threats especially if it is certain kinds of debt like paying off the usury rates designed to keep us bound that are attached to the use of a credit card....

Our human rights have been disregarded for centuries!As has human rights have been violated all over this world by certain kinds of soulless but insatiable characters(ruthless people)

These Assholes who manipulate us all will do it in any way they can get away with it.They use a velvet glove,mind ****ing, social engineering or by force.Anything to hold onto the "economic dream".

Never should the means of survival like food,water,shelter,health care,etc. be withheld from anyone because of lack of decorated pieces of paper (money) Money is the blood of the Ponzi,the heart of the biggest lie ever bought..a lie invented to control people to extract their labor,and get away with many horrendous things. Money only means access to food etc. if you BELIEVE it has the power to buy these things.Hence the term and the 'index' called consumer CONfidence!!

(I for one have NO confidence in the value of money.)(But food is valuable,efforts are valuable,shelter is,so is heat,health care etc.all of that is valuable and it does not have to COST.)

Money is and has always been a tool of oppression by the rich and the engineered scarcity of money allows the violation of human rights to continue on and on..Just STOP believing in the myth called money,and start SHARING your excess,there is enough if shared by enough people to survive here, and maybe even enough resources if it is taken from the few and given to the many, the means of production put in service of humanity instead of profit,and wealth redistributed we all can live well enough and have the time to live our lives and get to know each other again.

Every person that loses faith in money can learn to live another way if that person can find others are walking away from the greatest scam ever sold the chances of freedom from financial abuse and violations of human rights looks ever more possible. Bottom line is we need each other,

Paragraphized by franksolich.

Edited considerably by franksolich to remove non-subway cat prose.

Anybody care to explain what the subway cat means, in the bold area, above?

Only five primitives came to the bonfire, including these two:

Biggest Ponzi scheme ever is still Social Security.  Close second, public employee's pensions.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I'm still trying to figure out what the subway cat means, by necessities of life not having "to cost."

The subway cat is thinking like an actual cat. My cat gets everything it needs for free (from the cat's Point Of View ) and if its not satisfied with what I feed it or the toys it has to play with- it goes outside to play with something until it becomes food - also at no cost (to the cat). I think the subway cat wishes to be provided for by the government, in exchange for nothing but her 'pleasant company' if and when it suits her.

For the life of me I can't figure out what it's bitching about.  The subway cat doesn't have a job, produces nothing and get EVERYTHING without cost.


25 years ago we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash and Bob Hope.  Now we have Obama, no hope and no cash.

I think she's saying it doesn't have to cost money, i.e. those services could be bartered for. 

Apparently she doesn't quite get that money IS barter, in an indirect way.  You barter your skills/time, providing a good or service to someone, for money, which you then barter to someone else for some good/service.

By definition, assigning a value to something means it will take effort to get it... at least, til LBJ decided to give away the store.

If it were not for money and the drive to earn and spend more of it there would be no excess and there would be nothing but scarcity of basic goods and almost no luxury goods at all.

I think that she/he/it would be SOL when it comes to bartering. There aren't too many Freak shows left where could work.

the means of production put in service of humanity instead of profit

 I roll my eyes when one of them brings out this hard core commie claptrap.  It's straight out of a brochure.  What is she thinking?  Rev up the paper mill, produce 100,000 tons of rotogravure, and then do what with it?  Give it to poor people?  What will they do with 100,000 tons of print ready paper?   Does she have one tiny brain cell left?  What's going on with the gay boycat with the blue hair?  Trouble in the litter pan? 

Miskie, you're right. She's thinking like a cat and wishing it were so.  My cats get the best of everything, including top notch healthcare and I don't get a single thin dime from them.  Bastards.

I went to my brother's widows facebook the other day for the first time since the bitch threaten my mom with moving my brother because of the headstone we chose. She had no money so my mom paid for his funeral, the casket and the headstone.  Long story short, when it came time to choose the headstone she was always "just not ready" and told us to handle it several times so six months after my brothers death my mom took matters into her own hands and just ordered it. 

Anyway, when I went to her facebook I had to will myself not to respond. It was full of nationalized healthcare crap.  One of her brilliant entries was about out how it should be FREE to talk to someone (read therapist). So either someone is expected to go to college for years to get their degree and not get paid for their services (it cracks me up how they don't think past themselves...like how would the therapist actually LIVE if they didn't get paid) or just have "THE MAN" pay for it.

Stupid evil bitch (the evil part came from what she did to my brother).

Heaven aka government, utopia, etc. having done away with the monetary system so that we all live life free. Free food, free health care, free education; all to be had because of the basic goodness that exists in every one of us, and forced out by government fist.

I found this on Wikipedia:
Quote
Clinical lycanthropy is defined as a rare psychiatric syndrome which involves a delusion that the affected person can or has transformed into an animal, or that he or she is an animal[1]. Its name is connected to the mythical condition of lycanthropy, a supernatural affliction in which people are said to physically shapeshift into wolves. The word zoanthropy is also sometimes used for the delusion that one has turned into an animal in general and not specifically a wolf.[2]

Clinical lycanthropy is a rare condition and is largely considered to be an idiosyncratic expression of a psychotic-episode caused by another condition such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or clinical depression.

It has a name. :lmao:
