Comment: I cannot believe that you are
I cannot believe that you are
I cannot believe that you are so oblivious to what Dr. Paul is saying, it is absolutely amazing the mental hoops you must jump through to reach the conclusions that you do! The shackles of fiat currency has enslaved this world, it began here in 1971 with the pure fiat currency and it hopefully will once again end here.
You apparently read a word and think that just because Dr. Paul uses the same word that is used by the power-brokers, that Dr. Paul is using it in with the same definition, but apparently you don't have the ability to comprehend a word's meaning in the context in which it was written. Too bad for you, your world must be a very confusing place indeed if your comprehension is such.
At one time, this world did have a world currency, it was called gold and silver, it was difficult for either governments or bankers to manipulate, to control. It was ideal in that manner and in many others. Globalization, as Dr. Paul explains, is the natural extension of the ability to trade freely without intervention or manipulation from governments.
No government control does not mean that money stays in the hands of an elite few, on the contrary it has been government control that has placed money in the hand of an elite few. It is difficult for me to actually believe that you can look at the world today and not see that there is more government control and manipulation and regulation over money than at anytime in the history of the world, what has that control done, it has provided for monopoly power to concentrate wealth, it has, through the fiat monetary system, redistributed wealth from the people into the hands of the few elite. If anything, it would appear that you could open your eyes for once, take a good look at just what government control has done, what the fiat monetary system has done and understand that your ideas about government control has gotten us in the place today that you are complaining about.
You are barking, once again up the wrong tree. You apparently live in the World of Babel, for your ability to break down and understand the simplest concepts totally appears to escape your mind. The world must appear to be gibberish to you when you see or read something.
You cannot possibly be so utterly obtuse...your logic is absolutely on par with DrKrbyLuv's, that is the only person that has been on the DP that is capable of such mental buffooneries.
