People put way too much importance on money, and stress on them selves because of it, and lose sight of the more important things in life - like finding love, personal health, and growing some fungus :thumbup:

this is partly the reason why I would be very tempted to vote for someone simply because they'd raise the minimum wage


i understand inflation can occur at any time etc. still though raising the minimum wage shows you care about the majority of the population


and yes, life is more important than just money, but pointing the finger at who keeps all the cash etc. just sucks. it's shared up between so many people, and there is just nothing you can do about it.


if business was fair, we'd know. it's all a horrible balance that works so much better than other systems but that could be improved upon as obvious demographics show


anyway whatever nothing I can do about it. it's an entire country and world orders system and all you can do is be fairest and most honest. keep crooks from working for you, and stop from working for them as well. it's a difficult thing to do, but just be open to truth and honesty etc.


one thing that is surprising is that most of us migrated to the united states to be free of the 'world bank' system in england and start fresh anew here in the u.s. many centuries ago which our fore fathers layed down.

oh well a few world wars and global political policies later and I'm sure we are a far cry from that.

It takes money to make money. If I had 50-100 grand start-up capital. I would never be broke again.

I hear you.  Given the opportunity that some of the rich fucks have, I'd sure be doing a lot more with it than many of them.

If that is in fact entirely true and accurate,  we then have to ask,  who are the shareholders of the member banks?

You do realize that the vast majority of charity in the world comes from those "rich fucks" right?

I am.  The rich fucks aren't just handing out their money, bud.  They're influencing laws to be able to keep more of it for themselves, or in their families.

The worst part (and the part that I'm bitter about)?  They've convinced the regular Joes that they're assfucking to defend them in the name of personal freedoms and opportunities, instead of pulling the dick out of their ass and getting some for themselves.

By what right do the rich lay more claim to the resources our beautiful world has so graciously given all of us?

It's bullshit.

Anyone who wants to, they're publicly traded companies.


http://www.federalreserve.gov/generalinfo/faq/faqfrbanks.htm

Quote:
"For example, the Reserve Banks issue shares of stock to member banks. However, owning Reserve Bank stock is quite different from owning stock in a private company."


Quote:
Holding stock in a regional Reserve Bank does not carry with it the kind of control and financial interest that holding publicly traded stock affords, and the stock may not be sold or traded.


Quote:
Although they are set up like private corporations and member banks hold their stock, the Federal Reserve Banks owe their existence to an act of Congress and have a mandate to serve the public. Therefore, they are not really "private" companies, but rather are "owned" by the citizens of the United States.


Quote:
How do Federal Reserve Banks differ from commercial banks?

Federal Reserve Banks are the fiscal agents for the U.S. Treasury, which means that they are the federal government's bank. The Reserve Banks offer many services to financial institutions, which makes them bankers' banks.
