subspace Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 http://www.citizen-times.com/article/20110319/NEWS01/110319006/Liberty-Dollar-creator-convicted-federal-court The leader of a group that marketed a fake currency called Liberty Dollars in the Asheville area and elsewhere has been found guilty by a federal jury of conspiracy against the government in a case of “domestic terrorism.”Attempts to undermine the legitimate currency of this country are simply a unique form of domestic terrorism,” U.S. Attorney Anne Tompkins said. “While these forms of anti-government activities do not involve violence, they are every bit as insidious and represent a clear and present danger to the economic stability of this country.” Von NotHaus founded the National Organization for the Repeal of the Federal Reserve and Internal Revenue Code in Evansville, Ind., in 1998, and developed the Liberty Dollar. He touted the silver medallions as an inflation-proof alternative to official currency. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
'Bart' Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 “We are determined to meet these threats through infiltration, disruption and dismantling of organizations which seek to challenge the legitimacy of our democratic form of government,” And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."Thomas Jefferson “Attempts to undermine the legitimate currency of this country are simply a unique form of domestic terrorism,” So why isn't Helicopter Ben in jail?

Mikhail Liebenstein Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 So why isn't Helicopter Ben in jail? The bankers and those in power are getting a bit twitchy. They realise the population has woken up to the banking fraud, and that the bankers do nothing other than skim of wealth produced by everyone else. If people started creating their own currency that held their purchasing power, then people would soon realise the bankers were worthless as is the currency system they game.

'Bart' Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Because he's inside their tent plssing out, rather than outside their tent plssing in ? Well it was a rhetorical question. Bernanke will doubtless have a long and affluent retirement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
