The time has come to announce the candidate for President that The Daily Nigger endorses. It is Ron Paul, who isn’t even on the ballot. But you can write him in anyway, which is what everyone needs to do.

Why must you write in Ron Paul for President? Simply put, by doing so you are essentially demanding that the Federal Reserve be abolished. The Federal Reserve has become the real government of the United States. The so-called government is the one that occasionally meets to deliberate about issues facing every day people, but their effect is minimal if anything at all. They placate us with their made-for-the-media publicity stunts, which basically pass as a smoke screen for what the Federal Reserve is going to do anyway without public endorsement, which is to support the wealthy of America.

Until something is done about this situation, the bankers will be just fine, the major corporations will also be fairly well taken care of, and the wealthy who run them will also be just fine, too. Case in point, which is what the Federal Reserve pulled off yesterday by infusing $620 billion into overseas central banks despite the failure of the bailout bill in Congress. The stock market went up, and of course the wealthy bankers and corporations cashed in on bargain basement stock prices. It all happened under the guise of a failed bailout bill in the House of Representatives, which is nothing short of a lie. The bailout happened anyway, except the Federal Reserve did it, not Congress and the President.

Americans are not being represented any longer by elected officials, but rather our lives are being dictated by a shadow government called the Federal Reserve. The purpose of which is to preserve, protect and defend the wealthy of America, not the Constitution. The government itself is held hostage to the Federal Reserve, and instead of telling us so they simply go along with whatever the Federal Reserve does because their corporate campaign contributions depend on it. They will never go against the status quo, that is, except for Ron Paul.

If Ron Paul is elected President you will see an end to the Federal Reserve. You will also see an end to the banking monopolies that have arisen out of the inside circle of the Federal Reserve, who are the board members which comprise the Federal Reserve. It is an inside job, a shadow government, and a total snow job on Americans who think they really have a democracy. If Americans want to be free again, the only way to do so is to abolish the Federal Reserve. The only person qualified to do this is Ron Paul.

And so today the stock market rose significantly, because as the mainstream media says Bush urged Congress to reconsider the bailout plan. Of course, the real news is that the Federal Reserve went ahead yesterday and pumped over $600 billion into foreign central banks, and of course that money came right back over here and went directly into Wall Street.

Our government is but a sham, a farce, and a charade. It is a daily drivel of nonsense for those who believe that their puny little lives really matter to their elected officials, when in fact the wealthy of this country are the ones who receive all the hefty benefits. The news yesterday spelled doom for the markets because the bailout plan failed in the House of Representatives. Yet of course that was just a well-orchestrated effort to scare the little people out of the market so that the rich can swoop in today and buy it all back up at bargain basement prices.

America, your government is not on your side. They are playing a game and the media goes along with it, because their corporate overseers rely on Wall Street for their livelihoods and the government provides the perfect foil for it all to go down since of course the politicians rely upon corporate contributions. It’s the perfect storm of keeping the rich exactly where they are and the politicians in office and their pockets full of cash.

Like I said before, wake up America. Understand how the game works, or else you deserve what you get, which is very little if anything at all.

Today the Federal Reserve extended $620 billion to other central banks in currency swap arrangements with them where dollars are traded for their currencies. Let’s take stock of this phenomenon. Basically $620 billion was effectively off-shored, which if you think about it is an ingenious way of making this money available to Wall Street firms by way of foreign banks.

You see, folks. It matters not what our government does any more because the Federal Reserve will do whatever they want anyway. The media can weep and cry and moan for the demise of the bailout, but the fact is the bailout went ahead anyway. The dollars have been pushed offshore, and at that point our sovereignty all but went down the drain. The deal was done by the Federal Reserve, which has no oversight from any government body. And the media itself won’t even report on the story, because as I have pointed out continuously the media is wholly dependent upon the government for their paychecks.

Our government decided to put on a really amazing show for us today by telling us they voted down the bailout because they were looking out for us. But after all is said and done, the real government, the Federal Reserve, went ahead with it. The news from Wall Street today was a perfect reaction to all of this. The suckers who fell for the doom and gloom threw up their hands and sold. The rich will easily buy back all the cheap investments with the dollars that will be loaned back to them by the foreign central banks, and they will continue to get richer.

Ron Paul should be elected President of the United States and not the two clowns who are running right now. If the Federal Reserve isn’t abolished, then the debt that accumulates on the newly printed money will simply continue to become the taxpayers’ responsibility without their consent.

It’s time to wake up, America. You must begin to take responsibility for your country, or else you will lose it.

-TDN

The U.S. taxpayer is going to get shafted once again by politicians who are laughing all the way to the Federal Reserve. They are going to print more money and give it to wealthy bankers.

It is not hard to figure out what the result of this is going to be. First the wealthy are going to become wealthier. That part is well understood. Then the rest of us are going to have to deal with inflation, because there will be a lot more purchasing power tucked away in the hands of a few. And of course the rich will spend their money on all kinds of really important things like Ferrari’s, luxurious vacation homes, and private jets. Of course this will cause the rest of us to feed on what is left over, and of course the prices of these things will increase because less of it is left over for us.

Next, the banks will become more concentrated into the hands of fewer individuals, who of course run the Federal Reserve where all the money is printed. This means that the government, which is comprised of those whom we elected, becomes less empowered to do anything to help the very people who put them there in the first place.

The media will become more endeared to the government, its symbiotic bottom feeder PR department. The two will need to work harder than ever to present the government as being something that it isn’t. The media will have to work day and night to spin the story of the greatest consolidation of power into the hands of the few since the Great Depression. They will try to scare us with recession, inflation, depression, collapse, ruination, hellfire and damnation. They will tell us that the sky was about to fall until Congress and the President stepped in to save us all. And we will lap this crap up like a three dollar latte at Starbucks.

The government doesn’t run the country any longer. The Federal Reserve does, which itself is run by elite bankers. The entire system is predicated upon the concentration of economic power into the hands of a private central bank - yes, PRIVATE bank. Even the government feels compelled to do what the Federal Reserve tells them to do, because otherwise if they don’t then the banks will stop lending all the rest of us money. In other words if you don’t bow down before the god of banking then you will be severely punished.

We are at the complete mercy of the government, which has to give the Federal Reserve whatever it wants. It is literally as though the banks run this country by way of the Federal Reserve, and Woodrow Wilson realized this after he had signed the Federal Reserve Act, which was enacted in 1913. There is something very telling about that date because it marshaled in the Great Depression which began with the stock market collapse in October 1929. It literally ended with the end of World War Two in August 1945. It took sixteen years after the Federal Reserve Act became law for banks to begin consolidating their power over America, and it wasn’t until 32 years later that there was finally any peace.

But peace didn’t last long. There came conflicts in Korea and Vietnam, and prosperity quickly began to struggle and limp along again when inflation during the Nixon administration and recession during the Carter administration turned what little prosperity many Americans had had into nothing. Interest rates skyrocketed, which were initiated of course by the Federal Reserve. Reagan managed to put money into the hands of many average Americans, but he had to do it by promising the military-industrial complex that they would not be left out. Including among them of course were the banks. The military buildup had begun and the Soviet Union collapsed on its own. Not one single piece of military hardware was used during the time when the Berlin Wall fell. But Americans had money.

That was then and this now. Americans do not have money because no “deal” has been struck yet. By a deal having been struck, this means of course that the government has not figured out a way to explain to us why they are making banks richer again. They will probably settle on the tag line that unless they do this then the banks won’t lend to us. That will make them look like they are doing this all for us, or “Main Street”, as they like to put it. Of course, we live in a time when the public has very little appetite for war any longer, and it is going to be a hard sell to convince anyone that the additional wealth that is being pumped into the hands of a few wealthy banking concerns is really going to translate into our lifestyle being raised in any way. In other words, they can’t use a war as a pitch to rally us around the government while they secretly make deals with their rich friends.

The bottom line is that Ron Paul was right all along. He predicted this a long time ago. The media ignored him and called him a fringe element, yet Paul is beginning to sound more and more like the prophet who came to save us from our government becoming completely corrupted. You won’t find hardly anyone in the mainstream media giving Ron Paul any airtime, because of course he is basically ratting out who all the players are in this insidious game that is being played. And of course one of the primary ones who are part of this game is the media. Ron Paul is focused solely on the Federal Reserve as the culprit, and probably he knows that if he were to go one step further then the plug would be pulled on him if for example he began to unravel the relationship of the media to the government while on the air.

But of course I am certain that Congress and the President will agree as to their media sales pitch for what they are doing right now. They will hammer out a “deal” with the Federal Reserve, so that the Fed also knows the story line they are going to lay on us to explain all this away. We will sit as usual, powerless and transfixed by the incredulous nature of it all, while scratching our head for a moment and then switching the channel and turn to watching South Park instead. At least that show makes some sense.

The Internet was supposed to make us more connected and more aware as people. It was supposed to democratize the world and make it smaller. Instead the mainstream media holds on for dear life and continues to refute the obvious, while elected officials go along with the whole big lie. They are probably praying that we don’t ever catch on, or if we start to then I’m certain they have contingency plans to bombard the airwaves with stories that destroy the credibility of millions of us, who like Ron Paul happen to know the truth.

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that in a true democracy, the government speaks for you. We elect people who are supposed to surround themselves with people from all walks of life to get their job done. It’s called you and me. I have never had one single government official ever ask me to help them do anything other than to sign a stupid speeding ticket. Even while I was involved at some degree or another with the military, it was one of the most lax situations I had ever been in. There weren’t so much orders that were given as simply what was expected of you to do. We all gave as much as we could give.

But today everyone is telling the government what to do. The Federal Reserve is telling the president and Congress to hand hundreds of billions of dollars over to New York investment firms. The residents of New Orleans told them to hand over gobs of cash as well after Katrina, and the ninth ward is still largely uninhabited. The people themselves begged for cash from the government after gas went up to almost five bucks a gallon, and the government sent them checks. Everyone is asking the government for a goddam handout, and the government is so weak and ineffectual that they are doing it.

Every time somebody has a problem, the government feels like it has to do something about it. But the only problem with doing that is because it makes others very angry who didn’t get anything and frankly never asked. We are the ones who work hard every single day, do the right thing, and pay the taxes. The ones who actually take the good with the bad and don’t stop are the ones who make this country what it is. The people who don’t bitch and complain and beg the government to come and help them are the ones who make sure this country looks good and is in good working condition. We make sure that the doors to the buildings, shops, and factories are open for business.

We don’t get scared by some slick investment broker in a fancy suit and offering little handouts to try to entice you to give them their money. Whoever thought of such a weird way of doing business anyway? Has it really come to that here in America where we still have these little stock peddlers running around? I thought that practice went away with the steam locomotive and the telegraph.

America is just as broken as hell, and we don’t even seem to realize it. The government is weak and the people who occupy the offices of government are incapable of saying no to people. America has slipped into a wallow of self-pity, which if you ask me is largely attributable to the media which has infected politicians with the insatiable desire to want to create havoc for publicity. The era of the perpetual victim has arrived, dear folks. We seem to love bounding from tragedy to tragedy. It has become our national ritual blood sport.

Ever since 9-11 there has been a sense of wanting to relive it again. One can only postulate as to what this means in a psychological sense. Perhaps it is a collective sense of a dream that only if we could wind back the clock and do it differently. We must be asking ourselves the question what could we have done to make a difference? Have we failed? Why is there all this talk about victory with honor that one of the presidential candidates seems to always have on his mind? To defeat someone who has already done horrible damage to you is not a victory. It is simply going and doing a job that should have already been done long before.

We were probably told that the government is there to protect us, and as we are learning this is clearly not the case. The government’s job is to encourage us to protect ourselves. Perhaps no other constitutional right speaks to this than the one which guarantees people the right to bear arms. The message is stark yet clear, which is that sometimes the government becomes the enemy of the people and the people must defend themselves.

How far will our elected officials go to impress us with their superman routine? After 9-11, Iraq, and the economic nightmare that we are living through, you would think that the government should just do us all a favor and resign. The people of America need to realize that they have lost complete control of their government. It has run rampant, mindlessly bounding from tragedy to tragedy. They are constantly doing patch up jobs to repair damage. There has been little good news at all since a good long while. It’s all doom and gloom. The Russians are threatening the world again, Iran wants to blow up Israel, rich people need more money, everybody else is broke, and so what’s next? A giant meteor is spotted headed for earth?

What else is left for these people to possibly fuck up? Has anybody just stopped for a second and asked themselves what the hell these people are talking about? How in heaven’s name can America go to war with Iran right now, and we can’t even afford $700 billion? Iraq cost us at least that much, and Iran really does have weapons of mass destruction. Now what do you do? That meteor is beginning to sound like a really good diversion right now. Maybe the media can dream up the whole thing and create it for television like they have done with all the rest of this shitty nonsense. Of course they will have to have their own soundtrack for it as well as a intro clip like the old radar screen deals they cooked up during our recent wars where the blips go off as a red light blinks.

The whole rotten mess we are in is completely our fault. We sit back and laugh about all this bullshit because we are the ones we are laughing at. Maybe that ought to be Obama’s mantra instead of we are the ones we have been waiting for. What is going on is so pathetic, but worst of all a lot of it could have been prevented. It wouldn’t have taken a mathematical genius to figure out that your house is not going to rise 20% in value every single year. If that were the case then the government would have to take them away from us and store them in their vaults at Fort Knox, which ironically is what they are being forced to do right this very moment.

We have shown our stupidity once by turning the other way while our government fucked up. Now we are showing more stupidity by telling them to fix the mess that they allowed to be created. They haven’t done their job, and it is quite clear right now to most that they couldn’t their job even if they tried. The government of this country is so ineffectual that while they debate the amendment concerning limiting executive compensation for failed financial institutions, the CEO of Washington Mutual nabbed himself a $7 million signing bonus for a gig that lasted less than a month.

Our entire government should resign immediately, but then what? Put one of the guys running for president in there and start over again? No. Given what has come to light during the presidential election, the whole thing should have to start over again. Brand new primaries and brand new candidates. These two guys have both been broadsided by the economy and since they both sat in the Senate then they are both guilty as sin for not having done a damn thing to warn us about it. I really don’t care who says they can fix it. I’m more interested in finding somebody to replace these people with people who had nothing to do with this in the first place.

Our government is supposed to function properly and listen to us and decide what they think is best. Instead they have become addicted to money and power and have become absolutely corrupt from the inside out. But they probably should not have been put there in the first place, which makes me wonder just how sound the American people’s sense of right and wrong is. After all, we are the ones who put them there.

Ron Paul takes on the Fed:

The news is so slick. They did it again. They tried to make us feel so bad for Washington Mutual. Oh, poor WaMu. They went down the tubes because they were selling adjustable rate mortgages to people that couldn’t afford them. Preying on the poor and doing it by using other people’s money. That’s the worst of the worst. WaMu’s former CEO Kerry Killinger is definitely going to rot in hell for that stunt.

I don’t feel sorry for WaMu. I don’t care how the media portrays it. Oh my, I’m supposed to take note that it was the biggest bank failure in history. Well, not exactly. WaMu was basically given to JP Morgan Chase for nothing, nada, zip. Two thousand two hundred branches and billions of dollars in deposits for nothing. What a deal. I admire Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JP Morgan Chase. I think he should be given credit for having pulled off one of the most amazing business deals of the last century. With one fell swoop he has taken his company straight to number three in the nation’s list of the biggest banks.

I am personally amazed at such brilliance. I am also amazed at how stupid the media thinks the rest of us all are for listening to the reports about politicians wondering what to do about the banking mess that we are in. The example of Washington Mutual should give them and us all pause and remember that there is a such of thing as intelligence in the world of finance. It’s just that there are new players emerging in the field, and there is a quantum shift in America’s financial world that is like pulling the rug up and shaking it while people are still standing on it.

The politicians in this country have already proven themselves to have been asleep at the wheel while these hucksters roamed freely taking advantage of the less fortunate. They are proving themselves to be completely at a loss for anything to do. The free market system however is picking up the slack where others have left off, and the media would like to play it down. Why? Because doing so would remind us of the sheer uselessness of our politicians from both parties, and the media’s meal ticket gets punched by the politicians. If anything could happen to prove this theory once and for all as being fact, then this economic shift should be it.

This is not a crisis but rather a quantum shift in politics and finance. Perhaps Obama started the trend of rocking the system when he decided not to accept public campaign funds. Whatever the case, the country has already changed, yet the media is reluctant to admit it. They just won’t tell us that the change that we are undergoing is natural and normal. There will always be winners and losers along life’s meandering path, but I believe that for those of us who have done the right thing, worked hard, and who did not get caught up in the greed and excesses of the past eight years then there is redemption.

There will be new players emerging in the political arena as well as the financial arena. We can see it happening already. There has literally been an earthquake in this country that has shattered all the myths about Americans being close minded and not able to change and grow. No longer can the world make the case that America is holding the world back. We are pulling ourselves out of a mess by virtue of our intellect and by our sheer will to get beyond all the toxicity of business as usual. America gave the world most of the technological achievements that are now enjoyed, and now we are about to give the world a heavy dose of what it is like to utilize those breakthroughs to the greatest possible extent.

I believe we have learned that the way in which our information is delivered to us matters greatly. I also believe that we have learned that there has to be a new way for politicians to conduct themselves, and there has to be accountability when things go awry. We should have demanded this on 9-11, since it was the government’s job to protect us from those events. Just like in the case of 9-11 in terms of domestic security, we are now facing another 9-11 which demands transparency and accountability in America’s business world.

Gone will be the freebies and the bonuses, which amount to nothing more than bribes to investment brokers for “selling” financial products to people regardless of whether the underlying securities that make up investments are really worthless. In its place will come intelligent decision making in the free market, the likes of which we have now witnessed by JP Morgan Chase. There could not have been a more stark contrast than one of the most intelligently run companies juxtaposed against one of the most greedy and stupid companies. To WaMu I say, don’t let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.
