So God Made a Banker

[FORD]

Dodge released a certain ad using stills of farmers and agricultural scenes over a louder-than-usual voiceover of Paul Harvey's poem, "So God Made A Farmer." This ad, pandering as it may have been, was used to sell cars. Our spot doesn't wish to sell you anything. Maybe it could air in the next Superbowl?

Cenk Uygur reads the words of Brett Arends in, "So God Made a Banker."

What people need to realize is central banking is smoke and mirrors. Since the money is created from nothing and the big banks have an endless supply of it, the objective of course is to loan as much of it as possible to create debt. Debt becomes the asset in such cases. Then you get the people or nations to default and then you take the real assets. You get real stuff and make people slaves in the process. It's really simple. All you have to have is enough politicians and muscle on your side. You eventually need a gun to people's heads to make the point stick and they are working on that as I type this. That's the scam in a nutshell.

In legitimate banking you don't have endless amounts of money to loan. It's tied to a basket of commodities. So you want to make sure who you are loaning it to can pay the loan back. Loans become hard to get and the people that get them have to demonstrate they have the means to pay the prinicple back with interest. The banks make money off the interest. They can't speculate wildly because they have to earn their money and they are careful where they invest it. So the whole system becomes better managed out of necessity. Everyone has to legitimately earn what they get. It makes a better society.
