Fred Thompson tells it like it is:

History would state that America may eventually go to war with China over it's debts.

I wonder if this was an active strategy by China, many years in the making, to keep lending to an America - that just couldn't help itself. A 'feeder' nation - if you like. Therefore, all this lending basically was a take-over by the backdoor, Genius! America has just sleep-walked into this mess, where was the discipline?

I've been following this doc. series 'The Ascent of Money' on Channel 4 (UK) by Prof. Niall Ferguson.

If you have time, you should check the series out on youtube....

You might think Fred is exaggerating when he talks about burying money in the earth and dropping it from airplanes, but he's not.

Keynes was quite clear on one point: it does not matter what the government invests in. It does not matter if the government spends every dime on building pyramids. Or the government can bury paper money in jars, and hide these jars around the community. This way, individuals will have an incentive to go out and dig up jars of money, and therefore this will stimulate the economy.

What an enormous fiction. And to think that our new leader will believe this lie even more than the last one did.

Coylo,

I would expect China to be 'played', but not-so Russia. They have already been burned well by the fires of Zion and it's usury un-bounded plan, and greatly will-to-not repeat the torment over, ever again.

Russia is truly a 'loose cannon' to be recaptured. Unfortunately for the would-be re-captors, they are armed most potently, and un-like Palestinian punching bag, CAN fight back and will, and that on a permanent, irrevocable basis. (IF you catch my drift?)

Did anyone, other than myself, notice that when Russia proclaimed their government and R.O. Church "to be as one", that there WAS NO whining issuing-forth from the voices that usually do-so - and with virtuoso aplomb and to whithering, ninnying effect - as they do regularly here?

Well, I did.

"Mum" was the word for them, over there, and most wisely. (PC does not yet cut much mustard with the Ruskies.)

Unfortunately, I cannot SEE the interesting videos at the ends of the links provided.

Scott, might there be a printed version of Thompson's message available somewhere?

Though I could not see it, I can imagine what he might have allowed.

That as-imagined not withstanding, unless we can forge common ground, and stop fighting over this and that as we have been WELL TAUGHT to do, then there is no hope, and the planners (except for Russia) WILL surely prevail over us.

I hope and trust that all the above was within the purview of your thread, Scott? If not, I apologize beforehand.
