I have been saying for a long time (since it happened) the Financial crisis was due to manipulation. Well, it seems that many blogs, Limbaugh & even the House (including marble-mouth) have all of a sudden come up with an 'electronic run' on several accounts (Money Market) on Sept 18th to the tune of $550 Billion. The Fed stepped in & tried to stem the tide, but could not. The only detail is whodunnit? Obviously someone or someones with big bucks - most likely institutional or a government manipulation. The timing is just too perfect to be chance - after a presidential candidate made a European trip to visit as well as other forbidden countries that no one called him on oir bothered to investigate. Any competent investigator would cringe at the 'coincidence' of the timing to the election. Not to mention Bho's promised 'October Suprise'.
Here's a good summary with links, House video etc:

We need to push for this to be pursued & brough into the open. There are evil forces at work & so far their immediate fruits have passed into law without a minor ripple. We must stop the complete destruction of our country now!!!!!
What are you going to do about this & other related items??????

I think it's far more sinister than just greed. Or perhaps I'm just paranoid. On the other hand, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're NOT out to get you!

Right you are TT - one of Saul Alinsky's key points is to take power through contrived "catastrophes" or crises. You can't program hurricanes, besides they are too localized, even a Katrina. But you can program computer runs on the Fed or brokerage houses and damage the whole financial system. And then, within days of inauguration, you can submit a "stimulus" package that will cure all of our financial ills - eventually. Trust us, we're from the gummint.
This is greed, but not just monetary. This is greed for power, control and absolute authority.

This is one man's opinion:
"Daniel Webster's opinion should never be forgotten. Of paper money he says: 'We have suffered more from this cause than from every other cause or calamity. It has killed more men, pervaded and corrupted the choicest interests of our country more, and done more injustice than even the arms and artifices of our enemy.'

Paper money was part of the reason the Articles of Confederation failed.

No, It was FDR that took US off the gold standard, but the Bretton Woods agreement assured FORIEGN govt.'s could redeem $ for gold. That was what Tricky Dick did away with.

From Wiki
"Created in 1913 by the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act, it is a quasi-public (government entity with private components) banking system[1] that comprises (1) the presidentially appointed Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in Washington, D.C.; (2) the Federal Open Market Committee; (3) twelve regional Federal Reserve Banks located in major cities throughout the nation acting as fiscal agents for the U.S. Treasury, each with its own nine-member board of directors; (4) numerous private U.S. member banks, which subscribe to required amounts of non-transferable stock in their regional Federal Reserve Banks; and (5) various advisory councils. As of February 2006, Ben Bernanke serves as the Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Donald Kohn is the current Vice Chairman.
Central banking in the United States
Main article: History of central banking in the United States
The first institution with responsibilities of a central bank in the U.S. was the First Bank of the United States, chartered in 1791 by Alexander Hamilton. Its charter was not renewed in 1811. In 1816, the Second Bank of the United States was chartered. Early renewal of the bank's charter became the primary issue in the reelection of President Andrew Jackson. After Jackson, who was opposed to the central bank, was reelected, he pulled the government's funds out of the bank. Nicholas Biddle, President of the Second Bank of the United States, responded by contracting the money supply to pressure Jackson to renew the bank's charter. The country entered into a recession, and the bank blamed Jackson's policies. The bank's charter was not renewed in 1836. From 1837 to 1862, in the Free Banking Era there was no formal central bank. From 1862 to 1913, a system of national banks was instituted by the 1863 National Banking Act. A series of bank panics, in 1873, 1893, and 1907 provided strong demand for the creation of a centralized banking system.
The timeline of central banking in the United States is as follows:
* 1791-1811
First Bank of the United States
* 1811-1816
No central bank
* 1816-1836
Second Bank of the United States
* 1837-1862
Free Bank Era
* 1863-1913
National Banks
* 1913-Present

I think Andrew Jackson had it right, he simply wanted the central bank to go back to hell were it came from.
