Bill said: "In short, the Fed is an independent entity within the US Government."
How about if we replace your term independent with the correct term, private.
The Fed is not a sovereign bank of the US but is OWNED by private individuals, who in spite of the anointed government management, really set the policy for this privately funded institution.
If you had money like the global plutocrats, you too could invest in the Fed.....right Bill? Pray tell us how that that makes it independent.
So how come there are no Congress Critters doing filabusters on behalf of the public over this?
Just maybe we are so far down the rabbit hole there is no turning back, only societal extinction.
We were a species that could have been......great if it were not for the stupidity of allowing cumulative inheritance that bred the sick plutocrats in charge.
We can only hope that these repressive actions are reflective of late stage American empire failing.
The secrecy genie will not go back in the bottle easily, if at all, ever.....but will we be able to laugh those with inheritance into some sort of social responsibility and reduced wealth/control?
Thanks for the recent postings about humanities broader future professor Cole.
My belief is that the evangelicals have a devils pact with the plutocracy behind the GOP. The plutocrats keep providing relevance to religions that should have died in the Enlightenment and the evangelicals don't ever challenge inheritance and ongoing accumulation of property and wealth......our class society.
Lets take it a bit further and ask who owns the majority interest in those businesses and what are their social responsibilities to the countries they operate in.
IMO, we have a global inherited elite that are playing countries against each other to undercut social safety nets and increase competition for scarcer jobs. The multinational corporations are getting US military support to do so, paid for but no longer under the control pf the US public.
NPR and PBS have needed to have the first letter of their names removed for over 10 years. PR and BS are outlets of propaganda and controllers of the narrative of ongoing fear/terror for our plutocratic controlled government.
Unfortunately the plutocrats seem ready to go down that road. If we can't continue inheritance and private ownership of everything then lets just end it all seems to be what they are saying.
I believe that this kabuki about what happened is Libya is primarily focused on trashing the Hillary Clinton brand in light of her presidential aspirations. They are setting narratives in place that will be abused in future campaign activity.
Thank you for your excellent posting professor Cole. I find some of the comments edifying as well.
I am curious what your opinion is of the influence of these montheisms on the persistence of social organization factors like inheritance and accumulating private ownership of property?
It is my view that the major monotheisms are in a devils pact with the global inherited rich of the world for ongoing relevance in exchange for our class system perpetuated by ongoing inheritance.
Thanks for the map. I kind of knew what was going on but lost track of the effectiveness of the marginalization process.
This expression of genocide is the epitome of revenge by the top of the class system of "Western civilization" based on private ownership of property and ongoing inheritance.
I am happy to see the Egyptian people continuing to complain about their leadership and government direction. They have shown their actions to be effective and need to keep their focus on the long term general welfare of the public.
I read today somewhere a suggestion of forcing gun owners to buy insurance for each and every gun they have and raise and lower the rates based on training, gun capabilities, owner history, etc.
We live in a world created and controlled by the global inherited rich that has been devolving for quite some time. We seem to be reaching a tipping point where the "civilization" they created is self destructing.
Because the global inherited rich have such total control over money and governments it is going to take total breakdown to occur before we have the chance to rid ourselves of this class based, inheritance fed and accumulated private ownership of everything stupid social organization.
Lets hope that some remnant of our species can evolve beyond this stage in our history.
I wonder if the ruling class of those 6 million people is in any way aligned with the one tenth of one percent generalized to the 1% in American parlance?
There are puppets and then there are the puppet masters.
Very well put Dr. Cole!
It is class war and we need a Snowden that outs the inner workings of the global plutocrats, not just their puppets.

Agreed !!!

My, how far we have evolved......not.

I think it is an idea with merit
Thanks for the insightful posting Juan.

Nice follow on to another great posting.
