So in researching I found a book published in 1896, written by a libertarian, and I may disagree with some of his conclusions should he have any, but I thought it would be a good introduction. I am quite pleased with the first sentence of the author's preface: "The essential function of a bank is to facilitate transfers of capital". Reckon I'll do a bit of reading tonight.
The book is "A History of Banking in the United States", William Graham Sumner, 1896. - 255Posted by 73SHARK 6 days, 20 hours ago to More sKamala Plagiarism Uncovered As Scandal WidensI doubt the mainstream media will publicize this very much. The only way I heard about it was by watching a YouTube video. Someone also pointed out the other day that they could not unearth any case that she was responsible for as a lawyer or as DA that she was first chair on. So much for the great prosecutor talk that she likes to spout.

In this case, emphasis on domestic. - 257Posted by $ SpiritWoman 6 days, 23 hours ago to Was Subjected to Liberal Lunacy Yesterday...must be a signI watched some of Trump's debates in 2016, and one really impressed me. The question concerned something about New York City and his opponent, one of them said something derogatory about NYC. Trump immediately talked about how NYC on 9/11/01 responded so greatly and admirably. Pretty quick on his feet, I would say.
- 258Posted by $ SpiritWoman 6 days, 23 hours ago to [Ask the Gulch] I applaud the person who commented electing Harris President is akin to the Titanic hitting the iceberg and backing up and hitting it again.I agree; recognizing the motivation of that person who is trying to convince you of one thing or another is, I believe, a good beginning to determining its truth value. After that, logic and reason should take over, and that doesn't mean if the 'consensus' thinks it is true, then it true.
- 259Posted by $ SpiritWoman 6 days, 23 hours ago to A Radical Plan To Save America’s Economy In One YearYes, good point. That is why it is inflationary. And think about this: who actually owns these treasuries? I looked it up once, a few years back, it isn't only U.S. citizens. So when we citizens are paying interest, we are also paying foreign governments, who hold a great deal of our debt. I think they're called 'sovereign investment funds' or some such.
- 260Posted by $ SpiritWoman 6 days, 23 hours ago to A Radical Plan To Save America’s Economy In One YearAnd by the way, I am totally against mail-in voting or any voting that occurs prior to the date of voting. Only in certain cases should mail-in voting take place, the military, for one.
The reason for this is that in order to be totally fair each voter should have access to the same information at the time of the vote. A voter could vote one week ahead, but from that time to the scheduled voting date, some things might have changed, a candidate falling ill or dying or whatever or anything else that could skew the results. - 261There is no more oversight. None whatsoever. When I was a judge, there had to be three judges for the election: a Republican, a Democrat and an Independent. Two of us sat near each other, one checking the ID, the other calling out the name, and crossing it off on her schedule, making sure the voter was in the correct district. We used voting machines, good, honest ones, in that particular election cycle, and we were allowed to help the voter in explaining how to use the machine but could not influence his vote in any way. No campaigning was allowed within a certain number of feet, and poll sitters, both Republican and Democrat, alternately, sat near the judges at the desk. After voting ceased at 7:00 pm, the machines counted the voters, and we had to make sure it matched what we had tallied as we allowed voters in. Luckily, myself being an accountant, and my counterpart, the Democrat, being an engineer, we had no problem with that feat. Then the third judge, who had experience, put the results in a bag and hand carried it to the district where the votes were tallied and added to the rest. There was no place for fraud and/or double voting or whatever.

- 263Did our founders not take 'human nature'---the will to power, and put parchment barriers to counter it? My analogy is that as I've said, I agree with the early twentieth century German banker von Gwinner (not Jewish) who spoke to the American Association of Commerce and Trade on January 4, 1911:
"He first related: "...America's economic structure would remain unstable so long as arrangements were not perfected for increasing the elasticity of the currency."
"When, Herr von Gwinner said, the United States possessed a Central Bank the phenomenon of Clearing House Certificates with which America was accustomed periodically to edify the world would vanish. *(Here's the important part:) America would require when establishing a central bank so to shape its Constitution that its policy could never be controlled or manipulated for political interest or for the interest of a special financial group. If the bank became the plaything of special interests it would prove more fatal than the disease it was created to destroy."
Now, in historical terms, the fact of the superb banking facilities in Germany prior to the turn of the 19th century was one factor in the rise of German industry: chemistry, especially.
That is all I will comment on this subject, freedom. There are still too many Leftist Marxists and Communists running around loose, many with their heads cut off (especially now!).
The above by the way was reported in the New York Times, January 4, 1911. - 264Posted by $ rainman0720 1 week ago to "+Bill Gates Ordered to Stand Trial in Netherlands in November Over COVID Vaccine Injury Claims —"Bravo. Bravo.

Laughing but sad, if there were too many wild cats maybe that's why hairass put in an order for some haitians being that they are natural enemies! - 266Posted by freedomforall 1 week ago to [Ask the Gulch] I've been voting every time the Polls are open since 1972 in my little town but I have never seen such a crowd of people voting especially early.

I showed up riding my wheel chair and about 50 people moved aside to allow me to go in front of them.Probably off-topic, but they had an election in Moldava a couple of days ago. It is small country maybe 3 million people, but 600,000 expats and workers in Russia, eligible to vote. In the last election there were 25 polling places in Russia. In this election there were only 2 polling places. The Deep State has their girl in power, Mia Sandu, and to make doubly sure she stays there in this close, 50-50 contest, with only 2 locations to vote, they also sent only 10,000 ballots for the 600,000 Moldavans in Russia. Obviously all censored in the Western media..

Let's hope the Wapo and Bezos get exactly what lying traitors should get as punishment.

Old but ever faithful division and misdirection of the actual issues. It's not raining cats and dogs it's raining Haitians. Springfield Ohio has had a steady population of 55,000. In the last two years that number has jumped 30%. And all of that new population has been added to the dole. Surrounding Ohio cities are experiencing even more, Lima, Ohio has increased from 30,000 to 45,000 or 50%. In the case of Lima, Ohio the percentage of black population has increased from 25% to 75%. In Springfield black population has increased to 48%. Just saying, this represents a whole new aspect of racial equality - in reverse.
ps
Additional unintended consequence flies in the face of Ohio's dramatic increased cat population. Some Ohio counties actually have a $150 bounty on cats. With America's pliable main stream media is it any wonder the average American appears so stupid. - 272Posted by term2 1 week ago to [Ask the Gulch] I applaud the person who commented electing Harris President is akin to the Titanic hitting the iceberg and backing up and hitting it again.People are woefully inept at recognizing propaganda (which are ideas which sound good but actually hide hidden agendas)

If he was going to do that, he would have done it while he was president- but he didnt.
Kamala is far more hitlerian than trump. Just listen to her goebbels type rhetoric (mostly outright lies actually). The hand gestures, the way they have taught her to stand and how she speaks. Its all rehearsed. - 274Posted by term2 1 week ago to A Radical Plan To Save America’s Economy In One YearInterest on the debt actually increases the size of the debt. It means we citizens have loaned MORE money to the government. Eventually hyperinflation is the result.
