    I am reading up on it now. I wonder if CSS realises that the money supply was entirely in the hands of private individuals in the US before the Fed was created ?

    This thread has been so much fun! I've seen CSS go from overconfidence, to debate, to insults, to retreat. Can you do this again sometime? It's the best laugh I've had all week.

      ROTFL - yes, having just a small amount of knowledge on the subject, by co-incidence, I knew that was going to be enough to shoot down his ignorant delusions. Having people join in, and having EVERYONE on the thread know more about it than he did, after months of his boasting, well, let's just say I'm good for Christmas presents

        Well back when a private group of jackasses couldn't legally counterfeit money we were in a much better position. You eurotrash really crack me up, I thank God we slaughtered a bunch of you peons back in the revolutionary war.

        And, once again, unable to find a cut and paste riposte to the question, he resorts to insults.

        Well, back in those days, what did people need money for? Small potatoes. There's no Fed. How does Congress fund, say, WWII? And why this great belief that Congress is somehow more accountable? TARP, for example. The American people really had a say in that program.

          It is kinda funny how he reacts to these things. All he knows is what he listens to on YouTube, and he doesn't understand any of it. Hell, most of my knowledge on the Fed comes from Wikipedia, and I'm practically an expert compared to him.

              My god, you are extremely ignorant. I'm not going to waste my time with a bunch of idiot un-American pieces of crap who literally have no comprehension of morality or principles. I think a long time of extreme suffering is what you need, perhaps then you would change your views that have contributed to more harm and suffering then the black plague.

              I'm just going to chime in that Christian has yet to present something you actually managed to refute. Insults, declaration that a fact is a lie, and generally being a jackass isn't refuting someone. He's posting what at least appear to be facts, and to the best of my knowledge not only are, but are completely correct. If you were to try someone may take you seriously. And no copy pasta, demonstrate a real understanding of the system yourself. If you can do it, you'd be the first person I've seen actually do so. No matter how long a post is, how many times it's repeated, or how many times you call someone ignorant for not believing it, it doesn't become fact. I have an archive of idiots like you, spouting off baseless assertions and calling everyone else sheep, not one of them has successfully defended their views after challenging me on posting them. Unless of course you wish to be filed alongside the timecube guy.

                Obviously you have a very little amount of knowledge on the subject. It blows me away how ignorant you are, some of the blatantly stupid replies that you whipped up out of bullshit are just behind and below ignorance. You think four people whose insolence and disdain exceeds all meters, spouting pure drunken eurotrash bullshit counters ones persons pure honest logic then you are broken. You are destined for hell.

                    Give me until tonight, I'll explain to you exactly what the constitution says on the matter. Unfortunately I have work to do right now. But again, insults are not refutation. My insult did no do so to you, the point that you haven't actually had any facts did. And when I take another quick look over the constitution to get all the details correct tonight I'll show you were the facts lie.

                      it amazes me how stupid you can be, you fail in your attempt to convince people that what you say isnt just pure trash, and as you failed you resort to petty insults like eurotrash is somekind of damming all purpose word that imediately make you right, it doesnt it just highlights your stupidity. If replies to your posts are stupid it should be easy to counter yet you didnt, why? oh and who is this one persons who has this pure logic as you have shown non so far.

                      Go away and research the subject, analyze the options for and against, understand the problem and them come back when you agree with me.

                              I find it worth my time when I can drive these idiots into such a tizzy that they disappear for a few months. If you do it enough times without letting them get comfortable again they bug off permanently.

                                  That's great, CSS... So they're being monitored in public places. Sure, a little "big brother," but no one is videotaping them inside their homes, so the most you can really call it is a big waste of government funding. We, on the other hand, have the Department of Homeland Security, which can do anything it wants in the name of fighting terrorism... We have "suspected" terrorists being held without trial when our judicial system is based on the concept of "innocent until proven guilty"... We have a ridiculous amount of semi-useless security theater at airports and train stations (This[^] is still going on in my neck of the woods, and it's starting to get annoying)... Don't get me wrong... I think this is a great country... But we're by no means perfect, so maybe you should stop calling them "eurotrash" just because they don't bow down to the same government as you.

                                    Tried that. You can only get rid of him for a day at a time... Then he gets back on YouTube, watches some more conspiracy videos and Ron Paul propaganda, and comes back with the same "arguments" as before.

                                      Ah well, I've got to try. Worst case scenario I just spend my breaks poking him with a stick like most everyone else.

                                        I find it worth my time when I can drive these idiots into such a tizzy that they disappear for a few months. If you do it enough times without letting them get comfortable again they bug off permanently.

                                        please note that when people say he dissapears and reappears a day later with the same argument they actaully do mean the same - no additional information, no reasoning, no thought, I doubt CSS could pass a Turing test and would likely come second to a pocket calculator

                                        Go away and research the subject, analyze the options for and against, understand the problem and them come back when you agree with me.

                                          Obviously you have a very little amount of knowledge on the subject. It blows me away how ignorant you are, some of the blatantly stupid replies that you whipped up out of bullshit are just behind and below ignorance. You think four people whose insolence and disdain exceeds all meters, spouting pure drunken eurotrash bullshit counters ones persons pure honest logic then you are broken. You are destined for hell.

                                          I had only started the book. Now I know more, but the little I knew was apparently enough for you to refuse to answer my points, except to insult me.
