With no respect intended for John Lennon…

Imagine….

Imagine waking up one day in an alternative universe. Most things were the same. There was still a congress and an elected President who was the commander in chief and the leader of the free world. Democracy was still praised as the American way.

Oh… but the entire life of the nation was ruled by an economic dictator in a quasi-private banking institution who was appointed to office rather than having to ever be elected by anyone. Imagine one such dictator, once retired, willing to openly admit they spoke nonsense when questioned by Congress, and expressing outrage that an elected leader of the free world would ever dare try to impose his desires on his economic rule.

Yeah, that would be strange. Except you don’t have to imagine anything. No matter how dreamlike it seems, that is actually the system. We live in it.

Modern “Western Civilization” simply makes no sense at all.

    I agree with everything you wrote except the “quasi-private” part. Would it not be truer to say “quasi-public,” since the Fed is simply private, period, but has been simply imposed, period, on the public?
