If Mr. Kennedy is elected he will be the first president in modern history to take proposals for monetary reform seriously. It will then be necessary to replace the Federal Reserve that serves mainly the elite with a new system that benefits all levels of society.
I've read about theories that say monetary reform is the real cause of a couple of presidential assassinations. Those bankers protect their gravy train.
It's the REAL reason they eliminated Gaddafi; because he was in the process of creating an African currency to complete with the dollar. You don't mess with the IMF/World Bank, as many leaders 'regimed-changed' (or assassinated) by Western powers will tell you.
This topic along with so many other things, like out of control military spending by our government we aren’t being told about is the very reason we need Robert Kennedy to win this election. No one out there running for President is as knowledgeable and articulate as he is and from everything I can tell; cares about the people of this country. Since the MSM is not doing its job, articles such as this are desperately needed to reach many more people. It’s hard not to overstate the dire situation the country faces but I am also encouraged by the slow & steady progress being made by Kennedy’s campaign. I’m sure both parties and their candidates have a pocket full of garbage they will try to dump on Kennedy but the electorate is slowly waking up to the fact that our government is not for us.
this is why RFK Jr NOW has my support. These ideas and his detailed plans will restore a balanced economy. I don’t agree with his support of Israel. I do agree and always will in a free market free that is of corruption. His ideas in this arena are brilliant and solid and will go a long way imo to restoring the economic stability of the middle class. The path to chaos and collapse is not for me an option. The revolution takes place when all have a realistic chance to make a good life for themselves and their kids. That’s the primary revolution he will lead. He doesn’t have to correct the corruption in world politics that lead to war unless and until he fixes the front porch steps of our lives.
I'm with you. His unflinching support of Israel is problematic for me and I hope that it's not his undoing, but there are so many other issues where his views seem like "finally someone is talking sense". His opposition to central bank CBDC's is one of them.
What's the difference today? We have an extra middleman parasite called banks that do the same thing as CBDCs. Dr Mercola and his team were debanked by Chase Bank a couple of months ago for no legal reason.
Private banking is the big issue, including the "federal" reserve which is run by private banking interests.
Look into the state of North Dakota, which runs a public state bank...
The profits are reinvested into the services and the state, no need for parasitic shareholders.
Rfk's pro war rhetoric in the middle east is another issue...
No, we don't need a friggin "aircraft carrier" nation in the middle east. It's a waste of money and it just serves imperialism.
I must add that with each truth-based assault on established, insanely profitable, zealously protected power/control systems, Mr. Kennedy is amassing enemies who rightly feel existentially threatened by his ascendancy. In this regard, he is following in the precious, abruptly terminated footsteps of his uncle and father.
Thus the continuing denial by President Biden of federal security for Mr. Kennedy in the forms of Secret Service protection and less obvious techniques becomes ever-more ludicrous.
Elsewhere I have written of the all-but-forgotten attempt by President-elect Kennedy to quantify his own campaign promises as the first step in keeping them. That brief commentary bears repeating here.
"President-elect Kennedy asked aide Dick Goodwin to identify all the promises made by the candidate during the 1960 campaign. Goodwin discovered 81 such pledges. He subsequently was directed by JFK to form task forces that would be responsible for suggesting ways that the promises could be kept.
"I have in my possession not only a copy of the late historian George Michael Evica's rare published monograph detailing Goodwin's efforts, but also his copious research notes for a follow-up report, never finished, with the working title, 'Beyond the 81 Promises'.
"I submit that Robert Kennedy, Jr. would be well advised to review this material with the primary goal of considering a similar endeavor for his presidential campaign."
"President-elect Kennedy asked aide Dick Goodwin to identify all the promises made by the candidate during the 1960 campaign. Goodwin discovered 81 such pledges. He subsequently was directed by JFK to form task forces that would be responsible for suggesting ways that the promises could be kept."
Yes. It's called INTEGRITY. And RFK JR has it. Great idea, Charles.
These arguments are powerful, principled, and persuasive. However, large swaths of supporting data cry out for translation into terminology that is consistent with the financial acumen of the majority of Americans with the most to lose from the imposition of CBDC control systems.
Mr. Kenned is on that point here when he warns, "What we have is socialism for the super rich, and brutal capitalism for the poor.”
"..cry out for translation into terminology that is consistent with the financial acumen of the majority of Americans with the most to lose from the imposition of CBDC."
In other words, it needs to be spelled out in plain English without all the gobbledygook speak.
When RFKJr promises to make his first acts as President pardoning Assange and Snowden and releasing all the JFK files, that's pretty hard to resist despite being disillusioned by his silence on Gaza. I wrote to a new campaign-volunteer friend today, "RFKj’s silence on Gaza is looking morally cowardly but politically strategic (as is so often the case). Had he gotten entangled in that issue, he would have charmed some, alienated others, and been distracted from the economic, health, and immigration issues that his campaign calculates [correctly] are what matter more to the majority of the electorate." Plus, he knows who he's pitching to with his anti-authoritarianism, rejection of CBDCs and support of Bitcoin: "Not only criminals want privacy, ordinary people and dissidents do too" (paraphrase from memory).
I have seen so many politicians break so many promises, I'm too old and weary to fall for the messianism of his campaign, even though the assassinations of JFK, MLK, and RFK were the formative traumas of my citizen life, and I believe those assassinations were deliberately targeted to decapitate the leadership and break the bridge those three (and Malcolm) upheld between the white working class, students, and minorities—breaking us apart into an extreme counterculture vs. an extreme "Silent Majority" given its voice by Rush Limbaugh. While skeptical of all politicians, I'm also terrified of a repeat trauma. Bobby is at least making all the RIGHT promises. Will the deep state allow him to survive to break them? 😂
It has gone beyond tiresome having the myth overprinting money caused the collapse of the German economy in the 1930s, and it's worse when it's used to try to persuade people to embrace going back on the gold standard, which limits the ability of the government to provide the level of money in circulation required to actually prevent inflation.
The hyperinflation in Germany was the direct result of all the banks that had lent the Weimar Government money post-WW I demanding immediate repayment in the wake of the stock market crash in 1929, while the obscene level of reparations imposted on the country weren't lifted. As the cost of goods soared, the government responded by printing more money because it had no other recourse to address the prices.
Tax dollars do not pay for federal spending. Taxes are used to prevent inflation, along with ensuring industries aren't given carte blanche to raise prices at will. Contrary to what all the corporatists would like everyone to believe, it was not stimulus checks that caused the recent inflation. It was caused by the unconscionable price-gouging—including deliberately shipping eggs overseas to ensure a shortage in the US—of companies greedy for even more obscene levels of profit. (If you think I made that bit about eggs up, do a little research)
We need to stop shoveling money into the bottomless pit of the Pentagon and the MIC (preferably by reverting the latter to making something useful, like passenger trains), but it has nothing to do with the federal budget. Likewise, taxing the 1% has a perfectly valid purpose, but addressing the "federal deficit" isn't it.
The Kennedy campaign needs to get with the program and understand how MMT works, and why neoliberalism in ANY form is a house of cards with no basis in reality. It's a made-up system of economics based on a philosophical hypothesis written after the aforementioned war and embraced after its sequel to fight socialism in all its forms. It's literally designed to encourage predatory capitalism. A case could be made that dumping the gold standard was the one of the only things Nixon, who otherwise embraced the neoliberal agenda with aplomb, did right.
Does being right ( as in correct) about these crucial issues ~ if there is a place where conservatives agree with RFK JR on a particular issue ~~ does that make you label him a Righty?
It's this kind of polarized thinking that has split us in two as a nation. RFK Jr seeks to heal that divide. Because in the end it boils down to a question of doing the right thing and not blind allegiance to any particular party.
This is a time for all of us to come together and roll up our sleeves on behalf of our country.
It is important that he highlights Bitcoin as a solid cryptocurrency, because there are a lot of bad actors in cryptocurrency and he leans on the best one. But the Federal Reserve chaired by Carlyle Private Equity alum Powell, is very biased for Wall St. against the people.
Thank you for clarifying RFK Jr.'s position on CBDCs.
I would greatly appreciate if he could also give us his thoughts on "The Committee of 300". Dr. John Coleman was trying to warn us a long time ago. His warnings were always dismissed as a conspiracy theory. But the last 3 years made it hopefully clear to everyone, it is not a conspiracy theory.
If Mr. Kennedy is elected he will be the first president in modern history to take proposals for monetary reform seriously. It will then be necessary to replace the Federal Reserve that serves mainly the elite with a new system that benefits all levels of society.
Thanks for the Likes. Please check out my new book that contains extensive material on monetary issues and my endorsement of RFK, Jr.

I wasn't aware of the North Dakota public state bank! WE THE PEOPLE need to get on that and replicate it everywhere.

To paraphrase Joseph Goebbels: "Whenever I hear the words 'free market,' I reach for my revolver."
Fuck all "markets." And Garrie is about as far to the right as you can get, on everything. (Just ask George Galloway.)
