The Obama Deception
In 1862, Abraham Lincoln is quoted to have said the following: "The
money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace and conspire
against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than a monarch,
more insolent than autocracy and more selfish than a bureaucracy. It
denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw
light upon its crimes. I have two great enemies, the Southern Army in
front of me and the bankers in the rear. Of the two, the one at the
rear is my greatest foe." Today, the PRIVATE Federal Reserve Bank runs the US economy and is above the law -- no other agency of the US government can overule its actions -- according to Alan Greenspan.

Zeitgeist Addendum "We send this video out yearly for those who haven't yet watched it, mostly because of the first part of the documentary that details how the monetary system and corporatocracy works; how the profit-over-people system is fueled by artificially-kept scarcity in an abundant world. This, to get you re-thinking some of what you were taught. Take what you can, leave what you can't fit into your mind or reference points. The posting is not meant to confer our support to the notion, espoused in the latter parts of the video, that technology is the only agent for sustainable world change. Universal comfort and technological consumption cannot replace human ethics, conscience or values that define human-ness such as compassion, empathy, elevation of beauty, community, universal connection, fairness, justice, equality and the importance of public engagement, purpose and service to human dignity. Besides, having a global economic system that would put people-before-profit, perhaps a legal structure where human beings and not just capital had human rights and maybe could freely move around the globe without undue restraints. Just a thought. There may be many agents working together that might bring about a better world. Life is not static, reality is constantly in motion - emergent - as the video points. Old patterns, obsolete and illogical assumptions should not still be readily accepted." --Ezili Danto of HLLN***********************
