in civics class ceased to exist awhile ago, ever since private contractors controlled our money and oversaw all the government information and data, which is how the powers-that-be have been able to consolidate their money and power while sucking it all away from we the people. We're not sovereign; our government is NOT calling the shots, so neither are we. You too could figure out how to make money hand over fist if you controlled and watched all the data out there, and owned the banks that collectively own the bank that holds all of our national treasure. So much of our economy is driven by and depends on our tax dollars that it's easy to manipulate things if you know or can direct where the money is going. "Hey congressman so and so, award a big gov contract to company x that's now trading at $1" you say, and when the stock shoots up to $11, you know just when to sell and make your $10 per share profit. "Hey congressman, pull that contract, will ya?" and lo and behold, good thing you shorted, cuz now you're making another $10 per share as the stock goes back down. Pump and dump (of stocks, of houses, of neighborhoods, of communities, of people, of countries) is just one scheme they use over and over. But the big one ia the famous military industrial complex that we were warned about. Our war industry is worth $500 billion or more a year (isn't that the known pentagon budget? of course there's much, much more in black ops and secret spending, unappropriated by congress---which is illegal according to own our laws and the constitution, but no matter) and if you've got all that warfare and weaponry you're going to need an enemy to use it on, or else how do you sustain the industry? But as the world gets smaller and more chummy, enemies are harder to come by. So you have to manufacture ones that won't go away, like a vague war against 'terror' which brilliantly can never end! Now all the big boys are assured of easy ways to drain the rest of our money into their pockets with us hardly noticing or fussing. We've been taken for such a ride,and we're so naive.
The good news is that we really CAN wrest the US back from their control, and it's not that hard, except that we've got to change our ways. For one, we've got to pull our money out of the things we DON'T want to support---the big, traitorous anti-american companies like walmart and halliburton and you'd better check your 'socially responsible' funds because you'll be shocked to see that they are also funding the big bad companies via their participation in mutual funds and stuff. We've got to support community banks ('wah! but I have to pay atm fees!' you cry, but that $25 a year is alot cheaper than the $14,000 each american now owes because of our runaway federal deficit or national debt or whatever the hell it is that keeps getting bigger because we are feeding the giant 'tapeworm' corporations that are sucking us dry, rather than trying to sustain ourselves and each other) and we'll have to start spending our money really wisely (say, supporting small businesses and our own communities, and staying healthy---that's one of the biggest causes of bankruptcy, getting sick is---prolly why they want to take away our vitamins and supplements like the EU has done to those poor sheeple---and living more simply and getting energy and food independence and really producing things here in the US again, and supporting the companies that do and one another's businesses). We won't get our money back from the crooks who stole it, but we'll keep the money we have and circulate it among ourselves, so they'll have less of an opportunity to snatch it from us, and they'll move on to greener pastures (asia, other countries---hell, they're already pouring money into there instead of here) and we'll find our money actually staying in our communities instead of being sucked out to vast conglomerates or overseas.
