1. Greetings,
   I am a webmaster from Youngstown, Ohio and am developing a project for America. The site is coming along nicely. Here are the permanent links. 50 States Individual Pages and remainder of the Main Issue Pages this Month of October. Feedback, Suggestions, Constructive Criticisms welcome. I’ll need help specifically with advertising.

   Look, our founding documents can be studied, read and heard here. You can research the issues and blog ideas or simply just research and learn. I believe it is vital to our future. The resources are free and vetted for lewdness and the like. I have safeguard links to and much for consumer info. Click through and see the concept.

   The new tutorial page http://www.americanbraintrust.com/howtouseab.htm is about the guts of it and the navigation of it on the right. Tips for doing so included. Designed so novice users can access and use.

   No site is ever complete but this directory is certainly American Metal. Take it from a kid grew up in Steel City, USA – Youngstown, OH. Grew up watching those flames out my bedroom window. They severed our veins in the late 70s – was playing catch with my little brother when they destroyed our blast furnaces with ferocious, merciless force.

   We can do this together. We just need to get organized and on the same page. Voting, donating, education, civic duty, helpful resources from public, private, and government resources. History, our past achievements and our promising future.

   There is a lot to be proud of, a lot that we can do. Each of U.S. in The Fifty. I’m working hard and fast. I put contact on each page for feedback. Take a look. It’s better than what’s on T.V. and I promise you will wind up exploring yourself into a whole new reality of information, learning and discovery.

   Whadda ya waitin’ for – get clicking…Let’s light those fires again. Who says we can’t trade and build and support industry apart from the current system? Indiana with Oregon, Utah with Alabama and so on. I don’t know bout you all, but I don’t feel right seeing Garlic on the shelves of my local market from China. Huh? Across the board we can do it. We can do it. Networking is the key. I believe in U.S. Might not mean a whole lot. But I believe in U.S.

   From Failout To Bailout: How To Shut Down The Fed
   View Track
   Wed, 10/01/2008 – 17:50 — rich2010
   How to turn the Failout of the Banksters into a Bailout of the American Taxpayer.

   So, by now fellow taxpayer, you are asking yourself how to solve the credit crisis without bankrupting yourself and your fellow taxpayers. The Grin Reaper is here to help, first let’s start with some facts shall we?

   1) In 1913 the Federal Reserve was created by a coterie of private international bankers as described by G. Edward Griffen in his book The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve.

   Over the last 95 years the Federal Reserve, which is neither Federal nor does it have any reserves has taken out the US national debt as profit for it’s “services” of printing money from thin air and charging you the taxpayer to “borrow” it. The establishment of the Federal Reserve has no basis in the United States Constitution.

   2) The current credit crisis was initially caused by the inability of debtors, in the face of increasing payments and decreasing property values, to service the mortgages that they have taken on. It has been greatly exacerbated by the development of $1 Quadrillion in financial derivatives built on these mortgages, as well as car and student loans.

   3) The Federal Reserve, together with the US Treasury and the International Banksters that control the world’s central banks have dumped $1.8 Trillion of liquidity into the credit markets over the last 1 1/2 years to little or no avail in terms of easing the credit crisis.

   Observing these facts, it is apparent that:

   1) No solution to the credit crisis will succeed without stabilizing the real estate market. Throwing more “liquidity” at the troubled banks will do no more than prop us up until the inevitable day of reckoning. Thus the credit crisis is not a result of liquidity, rather it is one of SOLVENCY.

   2) The taxpayer has no constitutional responsibility to bailout the Federal Reserve and it’s banks from their self-imposed insolvency.

   3) The Failout represents nothing more than a recapitalization of insolvent banks because they loaned money to individuals who are unable to pay it back.

   The BIG question is, how do we do it? The Grin Reaper’s answer?

   The Federal Reserve Banks should be seized by Congress under Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution. The FED banks could survive as clearinghouse banks, but the Federal Reserve, that has robbed the American people for 95 years, would cease to exist. The debt owed by the American people to the FED banks would be discharged in bankruptcy. Congress would take monetary policy from the FED and would simply stand in place of the FED through a monetary board. The FED credit computers would be transferred to Congress who would issue new credit (money), because under our present system 97% of all money originates as credit. This new credit would keep the system going and prevent collapse. It could all be done without interest and without debt. The backs of the international banking cartel would be broken forever (or at least until they could regroup in a generation or two and re-engineer the 4th Central Bank of the United States), and the American people through their elected representatives would control monetary policy (i.e. money in circulation, interest rates, and credit availability.)

   As a side benefit to elimination of the Federal Reserve, we the people can demand the repeal of the 16th Amendment to the US Constitution, and eliminate the Federal income tax, which was established to service the national debt “owed” to the private cartel of international banksters. Elimination of the Federal income tax will put more money in the pockets of individual taxpayers and free them from the debtors prison without bars that the current US administration, and the private international banking cartel, has constructed for them.

   It’s a plan you can take to the Banksters!

   Grin and Reap my friends.

3. Catherine, I spoke to you on Coast to Coast a few weeks ago. I am the Person that has a plan to stop this foreclosure epidemic before it worsens, and it will.

   The Plan I have has been reviewed by Executives in the Bank of America at top levels. The information I received back was “it is a good plan that will work”.

   I would like to Fax you the plan but can not find your Fax number. Could you send your Fax number to cptdes2000@yahoo.com ?

   I have sent the plan to The Senate Finance Comm,, Nancy Pilowski,Senator Jon Kyl, with a request that He share it with McCain. I am going to be sending it to the Mayor of Chandler who will look at it and review it with Banks etc.

   Please contact me with your Fax number, I know this plan will help Americans and the other plans we have will help ALL AMERICANS. Please Catherine, if you can, call me at 480-206-6590

4. Let’s think about this ….

   The Birk Economic Recovery Plan
   I’m against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.

   Instead, I’m in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to America in a We Deserve It Dividend.

   To make the math simple, let’s assume there are 200,000,000 bonafide U.S. Citizens 18+.

   Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and child. So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up..

   So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billion that equals $425,000.00.

   My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a We Deserve It Dividend.

   Of course, it would NOT be tax free.

   So let’s assume a tax rate of 30%.

   Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes.

   That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.

   But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket.

   A husband and wife has $595,000.00.

   What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 in your family?

   Pay off your mortgage – housing crisis solved.

   Repay college loans – what a great boost to new grads

   Put away money for college – it’ll be there

   Save in a bank – create money to loan to entrepreneurs.

   Buy a new car – create jobs

   Invest in the market – capital drives growth

   Pay for your parent’s medical insurance – health care improves

   Enable Deadbeat Dads to come clean – or else

   Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+ including the folks who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other company that is cutting back. And of course, for those serving in our Armed Forces.

   If we’re going to re-distribute wealth let’s really do it…instead of trickling out a puny $1000.00 ( ‘vote buy’ ) economic incentive that is being proposed by one of our candidates for President.

   If we’re going to do an $85 billion bailout, let’s bail out every adult U S Citizen 18+!

   As for AIG – liquidate it.

   Sell off its parts.

   Let American General go back to being American General.

   Sell off the real estate.

   Let the private sector bargain hunters cut it up and clean it up.

   Here’s my rationale. We deserve it and AIG doesn’t.

   Sure it’s a crazy idea that can ‘never work.’

   But can you imagine the Coast-To-Coast Block Party!

   How do you spell Economic Boom?

   I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the $85 Billion

   We Deserve It Dividend more than I do the geniuses at AIG or in Washington DC

   And remember, The Birk plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because $25.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.

   Ahhh…I feel so much better getting that off my chest.

   Kindest personal regards,

   Birk

   PS: Feel free to pass this along to your pals as it’s either good for a laugh or a tear or a very sobering thought on how to best use $85 Billion!!

5. Lady Austin, I was glad to have the oppertunity to hear you on C2C the past eve.
   I have often had the idea (long before) the”Wall Street” smoke and mirror game.
   What if and of course you would need a trustworthy person to handle this and keep the
   Govt out of it. We can add a small surcharge to every sporting event. Take it from High school prep games to the pros, we all love and have our favorite sports events now no we all cannot attend every thing we wish but it could and can add up quick. Yes it could take a yr or two but the monies are coming from the workong people and the white collar mngt as well as the immagrants as well.This would eliminate the call for borrowing the money as I have always believed that the extreme amounts of funds they are talking about is all on paper never in circulation if it were we all would have enough to spend and lend world wide.
   We all know that we are going to borrow this bad debt but in the future we could see how to keep the funding in our own back yard so to speak.
   The populus is wanting to rid ourselves from overseas dependancy on fuel and etc. We also need to rid ourselves of borrowing tactics as well.Everyone following the news is in an uproar over the middle class and lower will have to bail out these folks we are trusting our retirement as well as banking for everyday use and they make these bad choices time to find the honest hard working persons that are not consumed but greed and power.
   I really also believe that it is all part of a bigger plan that only the “powers that be” behide all this are trying to crash tha small banks, to usher in this One World Bank,One Worls Govt,Have you seen the “Amero”currancy yet?It has been said that all this is part to crash the us dollar to the equal of the peso so then the US,CA<Mex can have their own new currancy to match the “euro”
   Thank you for your time.

   MOVIE: In Debt We Trust
   http://snagfilms.com/films/title/in_debt_we_trust/

   In America’s earliest days, there were barn-raising parties in which neighbors helped each other build up their farms. Today, in some churches, there are debt liquidation revivals in which parishioners chip in to free each other from growing credit card debts that are driving American families to bankruptcy and desperation. ‘In Debt We Trust’ is the latest film from Danny Schechter, “The News Dissector,” director of the internationally distributed and award-winning WMD (Weapons of Mass Deception), an expose of the media’s role in the Iraq War. The Emmy-winning former ABC News and CNN producer’s new hard-hitting documentary investigates why so many Americans are being strangled by debt. It is a journalistic confrontation with what former Reagan advisor Kevin Phillips calls “Financialization”–the “powerful emergence of a debt-and-credit industrial complex.” While many Americans may be “maxing out” on credit cards, there is a deeper story: power is shifting into fewer hands. And with frightening consequences.

7. Catherine, I was on a conference call tonight and volunteered to contact you I’m merely want to alert you to a movement getting started. They are trying to promote Fed awareness. http://www.endthefed.us/
