We have had, for the past century, a mix of capitalism and socialism. Capitalism and the US Constitution was overthrown in 1913/14 with the introduction of the Feudal Reserve Bank and the income tax. If we did not need to pay into social security individuals would have that 15% of their income to invest in productive assets rather than being consumed by an unproductive bureaucracy. If we had capitalism those too greedy would fail and disapear from the marketplace. If people understood the economics of money and credit they would not get over their heads in debt and we would be able to avoid severe depressions. Keynes and his ilk were a bunch of monarchistic socialist morons. Anyone who listens to Kenes is a moron!

We need to get rid of the feudal central bank and its income tax.

I accept the fact hat Obama is a communist. It seems to me that it is the only thing he knows anything about. "HIS" core values are the values of big government, big brother, totalitarian statism. He is obviously not acquainted with the core of traditional American values. The left think that if they only talk enough about their values that people will understand that they are correct. They think that the people who disagree with them are too stupid to understand. The reality is the the people hear them and understand them and have judged that the left are a bunch of deluded morons.

The witch trials in Salem were not the result of fanatical and superstitious puritans but a program of terrorism carried out by the British crown to destroy democracy in the Massachusetts colony and impose a crown government. The whole thing was a setup orchestrated by leutenant governor Stoughton. The trials ended when the common people figured out that they should accuse the governer's wife of witchcraft.
