The Bankruptcy of the United States

Prior to 1913, most Americans owned clear, allodial title to property, free
and clear of any liens or mortgages until the Federal Reserve Act (1913)
"Hypothecated" all property within the federal United States to the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve, -in which the Trustees (stockholders) held
legal title. The U.S. citizen (tenant, franchisee) was registered as a
"beneficiary" of the trust via his/her birth certificate. In 1933, the
federal United States hypothecated all of the present and future properties,
assets and labor of their "subjects," the 14th Amendment U.S. citizen, to
the Federal Reserve System.

Therefore, you are "owned" by the Federal Reserve when you are born.

Did something happen to the button in the upper right hand corner? I was using it to get to the daily posts but now it brings up a different menu.

I ran across this. It may be old news to you all but it was new to me.

Billions over Baghdad

Between April 2003 and June 2004, $12 billion in U.S. currency—much of it belonging to the Iraqi people—was shipped from the Federal Reserve to Baghdad, where it was dispensed by the Coalition Provisional Authority. Some of the cash went to pay for projects and keep ministries afloat, but, incredibly, at least $9 billion has gone missing, unaccounted for, in a frenzy of mismanagement and greed. Following a trail that leads from a safe in one of Saddam's palaces to a house near San Diego, to a P.O. box in the Bahamas, the authors discover just how little anyone cared about how the money was handled.

Yes, this is fairly old news, but since its news to you, there may be others out there who missed it back when also. It's best to be as well-informed as possible, better late than never.

Black ops! How else do you think they get funded? They can't do $1,000 toilet seats anymore.

Speaking of cow manure, when I was at Mississippi State University in 1976 there was a student producing methane from compressed chicken manure. I have also seen on TV a person in England who runs a car the same way. http://www.delicious.com/wwwtractor/ManurePower/

The four laws of thermostatics:

These laws have been humorously stated as: (0) temperature is a good thing; (1) you can't win, you can only break even; (2) you can only break even at absolute zero; (3) you can never reach absolute zero. In sum, you can't even break even.

I hope these laws do not apply to TSP.

Bernard Madoff was sentenced to 150 years in prison. Now, what about the rest of the criminals who made it possible?
