Most people are so unaware of where and how currency is created they remain oblivious to the threat this issue is to America and the world at large. I believe there is another solution to this inevitable end...to slowly remove ourselves from the system. There is a guy named Derek Broze who is working to spread the message of freedom cells and has a website at the freedomcells.org. It's a network of people who are leaving the grid, engaging in bartering and setting up small well armed communities that work to support each other...his main source of income is bitcoin donations...I amnworking to find and build the same kind of community...Amazingly, every person I find that understands what you're talkimg about here eventually leaves to join such a community...it is almost like I'm living in the modern day novel Atlas Shrugged. I want to creat my own Galt's Gulch. Thank you for this great article...I guess I'll find another way to discuss this same issue.",

      "body": "<html>\n<p><img src=\"http://storage.googleapis.com/fmc/money/_article/petrodollar.jpg\" width=\"856\" height=\"450\"/></p>\n<p>The US dollar currently makes up 2/3rds of the worlds global reserve currency. This is because nearly every oil-exporting country in the world exclusively sells their oil in US dollars (the Petrodollar), so nations are forced to hoard large amounts of&nbsp;US dollars, allowing the US to&nbsp;print it almost to infinity without hyper-inflating their currency.</p>\n<p>The US government has been doing everything it can to protect their petrodollar status around the globe.&nbsp;How did this all come about?</p>\n<h3>The Saudi Connection</h3>\n<p>In 1974, OPEC nations halted the sale of oil to the United States due to its support for Israel in the Yom Kippur War. This resulted in quadrupling oil prices, almost overnight. Inflation sky rocketed and the stock market crashed causing the US economy to nosedive.</p>\n<p>US president&nbsp;Richard Nixon ended up fixing this dilemma&nbsp;by setting up an agreement with Saudi Arabia. The US would buy oil from Saudi Arabia, protect them militarily and even sell them military aid and equipment, helping the military industrial complex in the US. In return, the Saudis would buy billions of dollars worth of US Treasuries to help finance America's spending habits.</p>\n<p>History dictates how the US government and their ally's have been protecting the wests financial dominance through this petrodollar ever since.</p>\n<h3>Iraq and the Euro</h3>\n<p>In 2001, Iraq switched from the petrodollar and began&nbsp;selling their oil in Euro's. Soon after, sanctions were placed on them followed by an invasion with massive destruction to their infrastructure. The Bush administration galvanized support for the invasion with lies about supposed WMD's that Saddam was going to use on either his own people or Israel.</p>\n<p><img src=\"http://storage.googleapis.com/fmc/web/715.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\"/></p>\n<p>This came a little more than a decade after the US assisted Saddam with&nbsp;chemical weapons and sophisticated military equipment as well as strategic supports so he could fight Iran.</p>\n<h3>Libya and the Golden Dinar</h3>\n<p>In 1996 and 2000 the leader of the oil rich Libya, Muhammar&nbsp;Gaddafi, had initially indicated the idea of a gold backed African currency. He found there to be many&nbsp;African and Muslim nations interested in the idea.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>He began amassing large amounts of gold and silver, to the tune of 144 tons of gold and a similar amount of silver. That is half&nbsp;of what the UK possesses in gold, but Libya has 1/10th the population of the UK, so it was quite substantial.</p>\n<p><img src=\"http://storage.googleapis.com/fmc/International/_insideArticle/Gaddafi.jpg\" width=\"250\" height=\"167\"/></p>\n<p>In 2009, Muhammar Gaddafi was&nbsp;the&nbsp;president of the African Union. He proposed the African states&nbsp;shift to a new Golden Dinar that was actually made from physical gold. Many of these interested nations were using the&nbsp;French franc (CFA) circulating as a prime African currency.</p>\n<p>A <a href=\"http://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2016/01/06/new-hillary-emails-reveal-true-motive-for-libya-intervention/\">leaked Hillary Clinton email</a> showed this to be a serious issue for the french and how they were worried it would do a tremendous amount of harm to their economy. The US also felt threatened to loose the petrodollar in this oil rich&nbsp;region.</p>\n<p>The prospect of sovereign control by a growing number of African and Muslim oil states would have been disastrous for Wall Street and London bankers.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>It would have meant huge liquidity in the trillions of dollars they no longer controlled as well as potential hyper inflation for the US dollar who had just <strong>quintupled their money supply</strong> to pay for 2 major invasions (Iraq and Afghanistan) and to offset their losses from the 2008 recession.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><img src=\"http://storage.googleapis.com/fmc/web/static1.squarespace.png\" width=\"571\" height=\"351\"/></p>\n<p>The wealth of these African nations would have depended on how much gold they had, instead of how many US dollars they trade. The great fear was&nbsp;that Libya might lead North Africa into a high degree of economic independence with a new pan-African currency.</p>\n<p>Gold would have flowed out from&nbsp;energy hungry customers in the west and into African&nbsp;and Middle Eastern nations. The US and its ally's could not allow that to happen.</p>\n<p>Fearing a diminished influence by the western central banks, the French, UK and US then attacked Libya and utterly destroyed their infrastructure leaving them to be ravaged by years of terror from Al-Qaeda and other factions, with the guise of defending the helpless rebels who were opposed to such a brutal dictator.</p>\n<h3>Iran, Syria and Russia</h3>\n<p>Two countries have stopped selling their oil in petrodollars, Iran and Syria. Both had major sanctions placed on them&nbsp;with Syria being invaded by <a href=\"http://www.freemarketcapitalism.com/news/2016/un-workers-syria-is-not-what-they-say-it-is\">outside terrorist organizations</a> supported, funded and trained by the US government.</p>\n<p>This not to mention another country slammed with US sanctions, Russia, has begun trading some of its oil for the Russian Ruble&nbsp;instead of the US Petrodollar. Is there a wonder why Obama has been adamant to create a rift between his administration and Putin's?</p>\n<p>If you've been following&nbsp;the establishment media reports,&nbsp;you might have thought it was because Obama has a heart for the people of Crimea or because Putin was fighting the terrorists in Syria or the so called \"moderate rebels\" as they like to call them, a claim <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfq66kgWusc\">proven to be false</a>.</p>\n<h3>The Petrodollars Demise</h3>\n<p>If many of these oil countries or even OPEC itself stopped using the petrodollar, no one would need to hoard it anymore. These massive quantities of US dollars would be sent back to the Federal Reserve in exchange for whichever currency replaces it.</p>\n<p>The value of the dollar would shrink dramatically and the Fed would be forced to take steps to shrink the money supply to stem massive inflation. The raising of the Federal Funds rate would mean that there would not be enough new loans created to pay off old loans.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>This&nbsp;is necessary, because there is always more debt in the economy than there is money, because money is created with interest attached, from the very beginning we are all indebted to a small cartel that sits behind the federal reserve.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>The defaulting of loans would lead to a chain reaction that would collapse the $700 Trillion&nbsp;derivatives market. In addition, the Fed wouldn't be able to mindlessly pump money into the economy anymore to fund their welfare/warfare state such as with their current policy of quantitative easing.</p>\n<p><img src=\"http://storage.googleapis.com/fmc/web/derivatives_world_gdp.jpg\" width=\"950\" height=\"650\"/></p>\n<p>Chaos would ensue in American streets as people wouldn't get their much needed food stamps and welfare checks. Occupy Wall Street would be a walk in the park compared to the riots we would see. The US dollar would hyper inflate almost overnight virtually eliminating the savings of millions of people.</p>\n<p>Is there any wonder why the US policy makers&nbsp;seems to be in a perpetual war with oil rich nations that go against their plans of world financial dominance? Yet, when their oil rich ally Saudi Arabia beheads its own citizens, en masse, or performs brutal war crimes against its neighbors, like in the recent war with Yemen to oust its leader, no one in the MSM barely notices.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>All this using US made warplanes to drop&nbsp;US made bombs on <a href=\"https://www.hrw.org/news/2016/10/13/yemen-saudi-led-funeral-attack-apparent-war-crime\">wedding parties</a> and <a href=\"https://theintercept.com/2016/08/15/doctors-without-borders-hospital-bombing-in-yemen-earns-rare-saudi-rebuke-at-state-department/\">hospitals</a>, they get no mention in the mainstream media or by the US government. I wonder what response they would have if Syria or Iran did the same thing?</p>\n<p>There is a way out of this mess, it will be painful, but it will be less painful than the one that will eventually happen as we kick the can down the road with <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RC1Mepk_Sw\">more wars</a> and destruction of lives on the other side of the planet, and quantitative easing here at home.</p>\n<p>Follow us on <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/FreeMarketCapitalism/\">facebook</a>&nbsp;so you can stay updated on our latest posts and learn how you can protect yourself and your assets from a potential catastrophy.</p>\n</html>",

      "body": "<html>\n<p><img src=\"http://storage.googleapis.com/fmc/money/_article/automation.jpg\" width=\"856\" height=\"450\"/></p>\n<p><strong>The main consensus around the world is that automation is killing jobs and increasing the wage gap. That it is making the rich richer and the poor poorer. To fix that, people have been calling for everyone to be paid a living wage. Doing nothing for an income. Let's see the free markets response to all of this.</strong></p>\n<p>When technology improves then the productivity of each worker improves. The amount of output on goods and services that each worker produces will go up. In a true free market system, that would mean, the cost of goods and services will go down.</p>\n<p>In this scenario, as technology increases, our standard of living will increase and costs of living should decrease as a result. In other words, things should get better and better as more technology gets developed.</p>\n<p>When a person looses their job because of an automated system that is replacing them. For that person, it sucks for the time they are out of work, however, logic dictates for a majority of people, it is a good thing, in that the business would not have made the switch to automation if they could not cut costs as a result.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>When they cut costs, they can return that gain back to the consumer.&nbsp;They can cut costs for the consumer and in most cases they do, so long as there is legitimate&nbsp;competition in their industry and there&nbsp;usually is. Competition is always driving prices down so long as they are not propped up by a cartel or favorable government regulations that are preventing legitimate competition from arizing from start ups.</p>\n<p>In a lot of cases, the free market is being prevented from functioning as a result of unnecessary&nbsp;government regulation. What we see today is that many of the big companies around us lobby the elites in Washington,&nbsp;Ottawa,&nbsp;London, etc to pass new regulations on their industry.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Now, why would they do that? If you can make it more difficult for the little guy, the entrepreneur with a brilliant idea, the Uber's or the Air B&amp;B's of the world from functioning by imposing a&nbsp;massive overhead dealing with the unnecessary&nbsp;regulations, then you win. Remove the regulations (and the subsidies) and you will even the playing field.</p>\n<h3>The Free Market Scenario</h3>\n<p><img src=\"http://storage.googleapis.com/fmc/money/_insideArticle/dairy-cows.jpg\" width=\"250\" height=\"176\"/>For a simple example of how consumers will benefit from automation. 100 years ago, dairy farmers had to have dozens of staff in order to milk 100 cows. Today, they have automated machines hooked up to the cows that can do all of that. They now only really need 1 or 2 workers. That cost savings will be passed on to the consumer.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>So milk is cheaper to buy with the automation than it would be with the 10 - 20&nbsp;dairy&nbsp;laborers. This will decrease the living costs by a little bit for a maximum number of people. All of the consumers of milk will have their&nbsp;standard of living go&nbsp;up as a result because they now have more disposable income to spend on other things.</p>\n<p>Because of economic analysis, we know for a fact that there is a net benefit to society as a result of this type of automation which counters the net loss to those 10 - 20 farmers. So overall it is good for the majority of people.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>A narrow minded person only analyzing the plight of the dairy farmer might say it isn't worth it and might want to ban automation as a result. If you do ban it, progress will stagnate and the majority will not benefit like we outlined above.</p>\n<p>This extra money that people now have as a result of buying things at a cheaper cost, now can spend that money on things they never would have before. Such as buying those new fancy hiking boots, surfing lessons, a home renovation, a trip to Hawaii, etc. When people are spending more money on these other things, these other industries will boom as a result causing more jobs etc to be needed in those industries.</p>\n<p>The free market will dictate where the jobs should be in this scenario. Automation will constantly be shifting jobs around to different industries. In almost every case automation will create more jobs elsewhere and even some people might not have to work as much because they aren't spending as much money as a result of the savings that automation is bringing&nbsp;them. That less work will even&nbsp;create another job to cover the extra work that&nbsp;you used to do.</p>\n<p>The big thing, is if you look at the lives of those individual people who are losing their jobs as a result, then your perspective becomes skewed to the reality that automation creates just as many if not more jobs then the ones that are lost as a result if it.</p>\n<p>Someone might say, the savings a company gets, will just sit in the bank and not help anyone else out. A company should be free to do that, but companies always want to grow and expand, its in their nature and their shareholders demand it.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>When Apple made their billions on their first iPod, did they bank the profits and stop innovating? They hired more workers produced more ideas they had and the world is a better place because of it.</p>\n<p>Profit is not a bad thing, it allows companies to expand their businesses, hire more people, research and innovate which all gets passed on to enriching the lives of millions of consumers everyday.</p>\n<p>Free market capitalism does all of that. It increases productivity, drives innovation, increases progress and is really good if it is allowed to work.</p>\n<h3>The Real World</h3>\n<p>With all of this progress and innovation why are we not seeing the increased job growth and people not needing to work as much because the cost of living should be dropping incredibly fast? The main reason is the government.</p>\n<p>50 years ago a gallon of milk might have cost 5 cents, but now it costs 3&nbsp;or 4&nbsp;dollars. What gives? I thought automation was supposed to decrease the price of milk. The answer is inflation.</p>\n<p>Inflation is not rising prices. Rising prices are&nbsp;a symptom of inflation. When the government prints money, the value of money goes down. So the government drives the prices of everything up. Inflation hurts poor people way more than it hurts rich people. The government prints money to support the welfare programs and the warfare state it wants to do.</p>\n<p>The reason we have a rising wealth gap is because of inflation. The wealthy and the insiders get the full value of newly printed money and by the time it trickles down into the economy and gets to poor people the prices of everything has increased so they see no benefit to the newly printed money.</p>\n<p>Also with taxation,&nbsp;When the government funnels productive wealth out of the free market and into government bureaucracy, then you are taking money from a more efficient place and putting it into a less efficient place and its like an anchor on the economy dragging it down.</p>\n<p>This is what is happening and sadly, the wealth gap is increasing and will continue to grow as a result of inflation and taxation. However, our government educated&nbsp;world is convincing people that more government is the answer to fix these issues, when logic dictates the free market is the answer.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Just let freedom work and then&nbsp;jobs, technology, productivity, wealth will all increase at a pace that&nbsp;most people have never seen in their lives. We believe in free market capitalism as the best solution for the maximum number of people and automation is a good thing for all of us.</p>\n</html>",
