"We have to do it" came the cry. "It's the end of the world." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pD8viQ_DhS4 Guess what? We let them get away with it, and now they're doing it again. It's the ultimate trump card, trumping reason, trumping fact, and trumping consensus. They're going to play this trump card until we make them stop. This [...]

In our previous post we began a report on how the Fed is using its balance sheet to protect TBTF banks and their investors. Now let's dig a little deeper into data recently pried out of the Fed by CONgress, under pressure from...us. Here's another must-read piece, at EconomicPolicyJournal.com, which tracks the bailout of Goldman [...]
From the U.K. Telegraph, this wonderful example of how to solve a debt crisis: let the banks fail. As you read this, please understand the "recovery" model that is being put forward, and supported by politicians of all stripes, for the U.S. That model is this: endless free money and bonuses for the banks, and [...]
On November 15th, the Virginia Tea Party Patriots sent a letter to the Virginia Congressional Delegation condemning the “Quantitative Easing” (i.e., printing money and causing inflation) strategy the Federal Reserve is pursing. We want to provide you with the responses we received. ---- Rep. Eric Cantor—who is a co-sponsor of the Audit the Fed bill—provided [...]
Why is the left leading the charge on this as far as the MSM is concerned? Why am I having to post a TV interview featuring Matt Taibbi in an interview on MSNBC? AFAIK, everything Taibbi is saying in this vid is correct. The banks are positively stuffed full of assets that are in fact [...]

Read the letter that was sent to VA legislators below: www.virginiateapartypatriots.com Dear Virginia Congressional Delegation: The Federal Reserve, Treasury and White House believe that debasing our sovereign currency by creating inflation is just another policy tool.

“Arrest him!” he said. “Arrest him!” “Why?” said helpless Uncle Sam. “Because he’s stolen my wallet and my shorts. And, if I turn my back again, he’ll take the shirt off my back!” And so goes the story between Joe Citizen and Uncle Sam as they ponder what to do about Ben Bernanke. Then one [...]
Blythe Masters....call your office. It's very important to understand the natural and ever-present friction (war?) between real money and monopoly money, and how that friction impacts your life and your ability to earn a living, support yourself and your family, and, in so doing, find an expression for your liberty. If the economy in which [...]
Or are they bankrupting us? To me, those seem to be the only two choices. Here's why. And, by the way, if you're home's being foreclosed on, keep reading. This is not investment advice, and I am not a lawyer. A home mortgage is essentially a string of payments made over time. From an investor's [...]
There's a reason why the Constitution specifies that only gold and silver shall be money: paper currencies are too easy to print when you start to run low. The chief counterfeiter at the Federal Reserve is very good at proving the point. "Credit bubble" is a misnomer; what we are suffering from is the aftermath [...]
