View Full Version : Zeitgeist: Federal Reserve
What do you guys make of this? Conspiracy or is any of this founded in truth?
The only part that I don't like are the people who have some sort of inside information about things before they happen and then come out with it afterwards.

I am suspect of all this kind of stuff but if the World War II stuff is correct that is rediculous.

I buy it. not because I'm dumb enough to go "OMG, a movie said it. it must be real".
But because it coincides with the patterns and trends i've observed over the course of my lifetime.
I'm distrustfull by nature and I always read between the lines, look for the "hidden" agenda or motivations.
The WW II stuff has been around for ages. ever wonder how the attack on pearl by the Japanese resulted in a full blown campaign in the European theater?
Remind you of any recent re-directs of US military power?
the ties to Standard oil and Nazi Germany was new to me though. anyone know when Haliburton took over standard oil?
I still don't understand the initial premise that money is printed then given to banks then immediately LOANED/Borrowed back to the government with interest.
Definately makes you wonder, but what can you do except play the game and hope for the best.
The stock market part really scares me though.
On a funny side note, when I posted this thread yesterday the web site came down for about 30 minutes... coincidence? I think not.

I watched all of them (5 from part 3). Was interesting stuff but I'm still not sure what my thoughts are about it yet. I think I'm feeling kind of in the middle; like it could be possible but doubtful. I am with you I don't understand the concept of loaning money then borrowing back with interest.
I was most interested in the few former IRS employees who say they haven't filed tax returns in (x) number of years. I also have to think that if this were true why hasn't someone filed some huge case against the gov't or have they and we just don't hear about it.
One thing I did like. Lou Dobbs; I enjoy reading his commentary. He gives me the impression of a newsman who will just say how he feels even if I don't agree with all his points.
I'm still digesting....
There is a website where you can watch the whole thing which is in 3 parts, these snippets are from part3. There are 2 others, one on religion and one on WTC.

I watched the whole thing awhile back. Taken with a grain of salt, it's an interesting connection between some data points, but nothing new really.
