| The rest of the world is much different from your hometown my friend. You outlaw guns, and then only the outlaws have guns. That wasnt some fringe group like the media would have you believe. That was 2 million people protesting in Washington. Whether they know it or not, they were protesting against a confiscation of rights by the same central bankers who are also buying politicians in your country too. |

I wouldn't call them crazy; they are nothing more and nothing less than a foolish and ignorant mob, a symptom of democracy's many failings. I have no animus towards them: they are what they are, and to expect any more of them is to be unrealistic and unreasonable. I can no more despise them for their manipulability and simple-mindedness than I can despise a pebble for it's lack of motility.
What we can expect of most people is limited, so they need an equally limited society. Democracy unwisely attempts to exceed these limitations by extending the power to control public policy to the masses, even though those people are quite simply incapable of forming anything worthy of being called a "reasoned" view on policy.
To combat this phenomenon, we've chosen to exploit their psychology to bring their level of influence back in line with their inherent limitations. Using information cascades, we can manufacture the views of the general population, often dissimulating the genuine policy objective for which they are blindly slaving.
These people are particularly vulnerable to such influences: many are struggling seriously due to the current state of the economy. They reasonably want to understand why this has befallen them, but they are psychologically predisposed away from achieving such understanding. As with most complex phenomena, the economic crisis was caused by the mindless interaction of many discrete phenomena rather than any unifying individual "cause." But the same "promiscuous teleology" that promotes irrational belief in gods likewise facilitiates the idea that this complex phenomenon is the result of the conscious action of a single entity or a small number of entities. Voila, you have your hatchling conspiracy theorist.
All that remains, then, is for someone of sufficient skill to point them at some possible source for their problems, and they will gladly and zealously ascribe blame without engaging of anything rightfully called "reasoning." This is their irony (or tragedy, if you prefer): they are really just the pawns of the same type of elites they believe that they are protesting against.
I do not particularly like it, but this is how the game is played. As for this particular movement, it will likely go down the drain much like a different sort of movement. But even if it doesn't, it appears to me that it will easily be hijacked and redirected towards another purpose, so we'll just turn that to our advantage as well. |

Unlike arbiter I DO blame people for being wilfully idiotic and pushing ignorance and fear into the public sphere where it can only do damage to the political process and the quality of meaningful debate at a legislative level.

This, but with a less conspiratorial overtone.
If the Tea Party movement is to do anything except civil disobedience and �civil war� as quoted in the article, then it needs to crystallise around a leader. The oligarchy that gives the movement a direction and purpose is the exact same oligarchy to which its members are opposed. Which means it probably won�t go anywhere. |

Nice point you have there...or never mind you dont have one. You're too busy arguing your right vs left/left vs right bull while the entire world is being robbed by central banking financiers. In the last two years the Federal Reserve has printed trillions out of thin air at the behest of politicans like Bush and Obama. People are finally starting to see how money works. The government could never hope to pass a tax to collect all the money they need to spend on the expansion of government itself. Thats why they rely on the Federal Reserve to print all the money they need. The Federal Reserve, the Government, and the big businesses all profit off of this system while the common man has his savings, investments, and paychecks confiscated through inflation. With no end in sight to the printing of all of this money, the dollar itself is on the verge of collapse. Along with it will come the entire ing global economy. But this is all fear mongering right? Everyone just listen to pkcRAISTLIN and go back to in sleep. |

The debt we owe ourselves (the Fed) is much worse than we owe the Chinese. If the dollar is nationalized like the constitution authorizes and a gold standard is put into place to regulate government spending, then we should be able to pay off our debts. Or perhaps im too dumb to come up with a different plan. But that wont happen anyways. Most people are too in ignorant and too busy pointing fingers at each other over the bs left/right paradigm to stand up and do anything about it. When 2 million people went to Washington in protest, the corporate media organizations (which are owned or influenced by the beneficiaries of Fed) made the idiots believe it was a march of "ignorant hick ****s" numbering in the thousands. |

You realize that the Fed owes money to China, and we pay the Fed to at some point pay China right, or at least keep the appearance that we can guarantee our over trillion dollars in loans from them?
You take away the fed you are basically taking the middleman away and selling the US citizens or states directly into bondage with the Chinese. |

Thats an incorrect statement. The Federal Reserve doesnt borrow money from the central banks of other nations when it can print all of its own money out of thin air. You need to understand that the Federal Reserve is a series of private banks owned by a cartel of international bankers who own central banks in every other major nation on earth. That is not theory that is fact. In 2009 the U.S. Congress found out that the Fed printed $500B out of nothing and sent it over seas. When asked where the money was sent to, the Fed chairman replied "That would be counterproductive." |
