    "Capital must protect itself in every possible manner by combination and legislation. Debts must be collected; bonds and mortgages must be foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through a process of law, the common people lose their homes they will become more docile and more easily governed through the influence of the strong arm of government, applied by a central power of wealth under control of leading financiers. This truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of Capital to govern the world. By dividing the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance. Thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves what has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished."

    USA Banker's Magazine, August 25 1924

    That's a real eye openner, too bad most of the American public is oblivious to it. And continue to spend on items that really don't enrich their lives, but put their quality of life in jeopardy.

    But after 9/11 what were we told to do to help?...continue spending, says a lot about the priorities of the administration.

    That's why abortion and flag burning have come up recently. Marketing hasn't changed much over the years has it, and yet we still fall for it.

    You need to be ALOT more tolerant of views different from your own.

    No actually, Zeplin I do believe you are right
    It is a bit sad that people wrap up perfectly good arguments
    in a way that will not sell them to the people. Calling yourself a leftist
    just alienates those who see the left as a threat. Isnt it just better to
    put the argument forward and let other people decide where it
    sits on the political scales?

    Are you saying that the information I post, even though it is true would reach out to more people if I said I wasnt a leftist? That's kinda dishonest dont ya think???
