Item Pending: The federal reserve

Question: Does this Video speak the truth or nonsense about it.

Research: from what I have seen, it is dead on and trully shocking.

YouTube - Zeitgeist - The Movie: Federal Reserve (Part 1 of 5) All the way to 3.

I cannot post links but if you search that you will find it instantly, its only a very short 20 minute movie, all three first parts included.

Thats part one, it gets really intense in part two, the beggining is slow compared to the rest, part 2 and 3 is where I am interested in knowing the most about.

With care and Political discipline.

Bye 4 now!
You are correct to be very concerned about an economy dependent on consumption. Especially when it comes to consuming things that are unneccessary. People MUST be taught not to be satisfied with what they have and told they need more and newer.
Those bent on stopping pollution and energy consumption should have one simple message. Don't buy anything other than what is really essential and make do with as little as you can.
