Larry Flynt the Conspiracy Theorist
 

The American government -- which we once called our government -- has been taken over by Wall Street, the mega-corporations and the super-rich. They are the ones who decide our fate. It is this group of powerful elites, the people President Franklin D. Roosevelt called "economic royalists," who choose our elected officials -- indeed, our very form of government. Both Democrats and Republicans dance to the tune of their corporate masters. In America, corporations do not control the government. In America, corporations are the government.

This was never more obvious than with the Wall Street bailout, whereby the very corporations that caused the collapse of our economy were rewarded with taxpayer dollars. So arrogant, so smug were they that, without a moment's hesitation, they took our money -- yours and mine -- to pay their executives multimillion-dollar bonuses, something they continue doing to this very day. They have no shame. They don't care what you and I think about them. Henry Kissinger refers to us as "useless eaters."

But, you say, we have elected a candidate of change. To which I respond: Do these words of President Obama sound like change?

"A culture of irresponsibility took root, from Wall Street to Washington to Main Street."
There it is. Right there. We are Main Street. We must, according to our president, share the blame. He went on to say: "And a regulatory regime basically crafted in the wake of a 20th-century economic crisis -- the Great Depression -- was overwhelmed by the speed, scope and sophistication of a 21st-century global economy."

This is nonsense.

The reason Wall Street was able to game the system the way it did -- knowing that they would become rich at the expense of the American people (oh, yes, they most certainly knew that) -- was because the financial elite had bribed our legislators to roll back the protections enacted after the Stock Market Crash of 1929.

Congress gutted the Glass-Steagall Act, which separated commercial lending banks from investment banks, and passed the Commodity Futures Modernization Act, which allowed for self-regulation with no oversight. The Securities and Exchange Commission subsequently revised its rules to allow for even less oversight -- and we've all seen how well that worked out. To date, no serious legislation has been offered by the Obama administration to correct these problems.

Instead, Obama wants to increase the oversight power of the Federal Reserve. Never mind that it already had significant oversight power before our most recent economic meltdown, yet failed to take action. Never mind that the Fed is not a government agency but a cartel of private bankers that cannot be held accountable by Washington. Whatever the Fed does with these supposed new oversight powers will be behind closed doors.

Obama's failure to act sends one message loud and clear: He cannot stand up to the powerful Wall Street interests that supplied the bulk of his campaign money for the 2008 election. Nor, for that matter, can Congress, for much the same reason.

Consider what multibillionaire banker David Rockefeller wrote in his 2002 memoirs:

"Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure -- one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it."


Read Rockefeller's words again. He actually admits to working against the "best interests of the United States."


Need more? Here's what Rockefeller said in 1994 at a U.N. dinner: "We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis, and the nations will accept the New World Order." They're gaming us. Our country has been stolen from us.

Journalist Matt Taibbi, writing in Rolling Stone, notes that esteemed economist John Kenneth Galbraith laid the 1929 crash at the feet of banking giant Goldman Sachs. Taibbi goes on to say that Goldman Sachs has been behind every other economic downturn as well, including the most recent one. As if that wasn't enough, Goldman Sachs even had a hand in pushing gas prices up to $4 a gallon.

The problem with bankers is longstanding. Here's what one of our Founding Fathers, Thomas Jefferson, had to say about them:

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation, and then by deflation, the banks and the corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their father's conquered."


We all know that the first American Revolution officially began in 1776, with the Declaration of Independence. Less well known is that the single strongest motivating factor for revolution was the colonists' attempt to free themselves from the Bank of England. But how many of you know about the second revolution, referred to by historians as Shays' Rebellion? It took place in 1786-87, and once again the banks were the cause. This time they were putting the screws to America's farmers.

Daniel Shays was a farmer in western Massachusetts. Like many other farmers of the day, he was being driven into bankruptcy by the banks' predatory lending practices. (Sound familiar?) Rallying other farmers to his side, Shays led his rebels in an attack on the courts and the local armory. The rebellion itself failed, but a message had been sent: The bankers (and the politicians who supported them) ultimately backed off. As Thomas Jefferson famously quipped in regard to the insurrection: "A little rebellion now and then is a good thing. The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

Perhaps it's time to consider that option once again.

I'm calling for a national strike, one designed to close the country down for a day. The intent? Real campaign-finance reform and strong restrictions on lobbying. Because nothing will change until we take corporate money out of politics. Nothing will improve until our politicians are once again answerable to their constituents, not the rich and powerful.

Let's set a date. No one goes to work. No one buys anything. And if that isn't effective -- if the politicians ignore us -- we do it again. And again. And again.

The real war is not between the left and the right. It is between the average American and the ruling class. If we come together on this single issue, everything else will resolve itself. It's time we took back our government from those who would make us their slaves.

Bravo ... :2 cents:

that is more than a theory, it's spot on.

Anyone else want to see a Flint for 2012 ballot?

Interesting read :thumbsup

I put the title that way for a reason. That being most of these people around here have been labeling all of this conspiracy "theory" for so long and love to attack those spreading the truth. So let them come and attack one of the pioneers of their industry.

Not enough people would see/hear about this grassroots action to make enough impact for politicians to care or take notice.

And how do you convince the 'little people' barely scraping by on subsistent wages to voluntarily lose a day's pay in a hopeless effort to get noticed by politicians?

Don't get me wrong - I think a revolution *could* be a good thing - and may very well be needed at this stage.

But - the media is controlled by big corporations and politicians. And the media would be needed to disseminate the call to arms (so to speak) to enough of the masses to take action.

They will take notice beginning September 12th when a million+ people converge on Washington. That's only the beginning. The events that are forecasted to transpire in the next few months will not only wake up those asleep at the wheel but even those with a lot to lose will find that possessions are not as important as the security of life and limb. These people aren't playing games and you should take note of that. Their scams are being exposed to more and more people more and more every day. They are going to protect their asses by any means necessary. Are you?

We need to hire a BIG time spammer, get him to email billions of people - wake them up.

sheeple are still asleep and believe everything is fine & dandy.

545 PEOPLE
By Charlie Reese

Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them...

Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?

Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?

You and I don't propose a federal budget. The president does.

You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does.

You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does.

You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.

You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does.

One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one president, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.

I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank.

I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a president to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes.

Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.
What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits... The president can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.

The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes. Who is the speaker of the House? Nancy Pelosi. She is the leader of the majority party. She and fellow House members, not the president, can approve any budget they want. If the president vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to.

It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million can not replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.

If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.

If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red ...

If the Army & Marines are in IRAQ , it's because they want them in IRAQ

If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way.

There are no insoluble government problems.

Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power. Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.

Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible.

They, and they alone, have the power.

They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses.

Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees...

We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY? Not one of these taxes existed 100 (years ago, and our nation was the most prosperous in the world. We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest middle class in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.
What in the hell happened? Can you spell 'politicians?'
And I still have to 'press 1' for English!?

I hope this goes around THE USA at least 100 times!!! YOU can help it get there!!!

GO AHEAD - - - BE AN AMERICAN!!!

I have to agree with you here. PornoStar69 is way to stupid to be real. :winkwink:

While I don't agree with the socialist movement and this isn't the reasoning for me posting this. The reason is it comes from someone on the "left" and maybe people hearing it from that side of the fence will make those on the left think.

Extract from longer version below

New. World. Order.

fuck the sheeple aswell you mind-controlled brainwashed conditioned clowns

p.s. when i said die die die die i ment i hope someone bumps them off - 'didnt' mean i'm gonna kill them.

I guess you can look at it in a couple of different ways. None of them being a good thing. One is that our government has on payroll people who are instructed to entrap you even by expressing your feelings and/or the 1984 term I like to use "thought crime." Another would be that they will even hang their own creation. So if you are/were an "agent provocateur" even you aren't protected. Who knows they may have even convinced him that he would be doing the world a greater good if he sacrificed himself for their cause.

:thumbsup kudos to larry

Bump for Mr Flint.

uh oh
isn't this a federal crime to say shit like that?
uh oh

3 letter group guys bangin' your door soon :1orglaugh

Pick a side, shut up and do what you have to.

Stop whining.

I'll bump this :)

financial slavery
brain fart :2 cents:

Revolution is coming..

that better be before december 2012

It's the way of the future.

Great post!

The idea that McCain (or ANY other person) who was elected, would have the ability to greatly alter the status quo in under a year, or even over 8 years, is rediculous, but I agree that some sort of MAJOR change in the overall dynamics is in order.

Now tell us how you really feel...

I agree with Flynt's overall sentiment completely, but I think Obama added Main Street for partial blame, because the majority of the US population has been living way beyond their means... carrying way too much credit card debt, accepting home loans which were clearly not affordable, etc.

online message boards certainly bring out the crazies.

but we voted those people in, they didnt just appear.100 yrs ago we didnt have a middle class.There was basically rich and poor. The reason they did social security because for most being old and not able to work any more was to starve. It wasnt until after world war two that the middle class became what we know it today. In 1940 70 percent of america didnt graduate high school.

1940 was within 100 years. The Federal Reserve Act was passed in 1913. Since that time the dollar has become worthless. In fact it's a debt. For thousands of years prior to 1936 when they passed the Social Security Act old people somehow survived. Social Security Tax is a ponzi scheme.

Bump for more fun!

He should know all about this, His big cooperation stomped on My Dream, when they 'trademarked' many common terms then he has the gall to spew out this mess about 'corporations are the new government'

I would Love to call for a strike as well, and I think we should start with the Evil cooperation this fucker started!
