PS: Just FYI, you DON'T 'start a revolution' by making powerless, inane pledges. You start it by showing MASSIVE, VIOLENT DISCONTENT IN PUBLIC PROTESTS that involve a lot of torching government buildings, overturning police vehicles and pitchfork-carrying mobs.

They had me at "I pledge to form my own opinions and not rely on pundits, politicians, or celebrities".

If only every congressional rep would adhere to even a handful of these pledges--especially the one about educating themselves. Did you know that in End the Fed, Ron Paul tells the story of how he made some comments in a financial services committee meeting about the gold standard and afterwards one of the committee members pulled him aside and asked him whether or not our currency was already backed by gold? Dr. Paul believes a general lack of knowledge of how things basically function is pervasive in congress. :0 Scary!

Americans are screwed because morbidly obese people DON'T revolt, they simply grunt their discontent between mouthfuls of Ho-Ho's.

RLR...

i feel your pain and admire your anger...i think you would have to admit that, though well short of revolution, the video demonstrates that at least some young people do understand what's going on...

and they've started a website and are trying to recruit members...it's a libertarian thing, specifically, i think...

yes...i get it...we need protests...but this is still a step in the right direction...

DB: Thank you very much for the kind words, they're MUCH appreciated. As is this website, one of the few that still allows pitiful, stressed-out fools like myself a forum wherein to vent the accumulated pain of seeing the corruption, incompetence and fraud being rewarded on an almost daily basis. Oops, did I say 'daily'?. I meant HOURLY!

This has already gone way BEYOND outrageous. In fact I'd venture we've been in Twilight Zone territory for quite some time now already. I've always believed that the callous way in which Third World governments regard & treat their people would NEVER be tolerated in such an advanced society as ours. Boy was I wrong on that one. In fact it's apparently not only merely 'tolerated' but seemingly DESIRED as well.

Although I applaud the efforts, spirit & patriotic faith of these brave young Americans that you've featured, I sincerely fear that -at this present stage- only massive popular expressions of ANGER, VIOLENCE & FRUSTRATION would truly get any results. Until that time comes Obama and his Goldman handlers will continue to push this radical socialization & transfer of corporate fraud & losses onto the American taxpayer until America is no more.

THEN: "Every generation needs a revolution" = PATRIOT & FOUNDING FATHER

NOW: "Every generation needs a revolution" = TERRORIST !!!

From a Friend in the Appraisal Profession

I posted a story about ICELAND and titled it: "Ya'll Think I make this Stuff Up"


His response: "No man is sick and twisted enough to make up what we have all experienced in the last 2-3 years. I keep hoping to wake up and have 2-3 orders in the inbox, 2-3 messages before 8:00 a.m. and my checking account flush. This nightmare has got to end eventually."

We are not alone-there are many who are waking up from their financial debt laden slumber, only to realize the house is on FIRE......That AIN'T NO B.S.
