Brother, you barely scratched the surface! I may be a permaculture guy who makes his living wring books about herbs now... but I spent 20 years or so in economics and politics before I came home to Appalachian Mountains and decided too figure out a way to make a living without a cell phone... but there is a freaking nuclear bomb about to go off in our economy, mostly due to government manipulation of markets.

This is, of course, related to the above. And it's not so much the gov, or Congress that unconstitutionally abrogated its responsibilities to print and determine value of money, but it is the Fed and the banks that run said gov. It's far more complex than this obviously, but the point here is that things are on the verge of finally splattering the fan.

How the hell do you "Build Back Better" in your own socialist neo-feudalist image unless you Tear Down Everything (and discharge all government debt, with a side of vax chipped UBI to keep everyone quiet) first? The last 2 years were a compliance dress rehearsal. We did marvelously well!

I suppose we could call the fed quasi-government. It is something akin to fascism economically, if not fascism itself, politically. I have a friend you may wish to speak with - he worked for David Rockefeller, the banker's, ran the economy of Monaco, the French Stock exchange, worked int eh Reagan admin, etc. Very smart guy, but very retired. If you can PM me or email (southernappalachianherbs@gmail,com or judson@judsoncarrollcom) I'll try to put y'all in touch. He enjoys golf more than talking shop these days, but he has a great sense of humor and is very smart... qualities for which you are known. Could be a good source for info and insight.

Yep it's all a banking fraud system with the fed in control.

A good series on this from truthstream media, leading to the fed creation and our current mess.
