I recently finished watching The Money Masters over the Independence Day weekend. The documentary thoroughly explains how the wealthiest control and manipulate the monetary system preventing financial freedom for public society. A bit of irony there.
The documentary clocks at an impressive 3 and half hours and the wealth of history on banking/money history is overwhelming. Producer Patrick Carmack presents an excellent film and I strongly recommend watching it. It will inform you on how fraudulent our monetary system is and explain why you haven't been able to save a dime for your future.
I want to note this is a factual look into our fractional monetary system and how the Federal Reserve is a facade. It is not a conspiracy-theory filled film with non-facts. It is part of U.S. history.

Bill Maher and The Green American Dream
I'm a fan of Bill Maher and his show on HBO, Real Time with Bill Maher. His movie, Religious, was a comedic and religious commentary masterpiece.
I know he has a self-centered demeanor many people do not like. Some would say he is a "douche bag". However, I don't see it quite the same. I think his opinions are spot-on and he has to be a douche bag to get them across. I feel I'm much on the same page as he is, when it comes to common sense and rationality. Fire is hot, you don't touch it. That's common sense. When it comes to... the fire is hot, what the hell, let's touch it... that's American.
Last week's episode, May 29, 2009, Maher, in his closing monologue, revealed a prolific statement that, I believe, all Americans harbor in denial.
"Americans will do anything to each other for money."
Simple, to the point and ever-so true. It pains me to think our species is cognitively sophisticated with a purpose to enhance and advance humanity, yet only so for the right price. Where is the logic and morality in that?
I care about humanity and our environment. I care about about my planet and going "green" as much as Ed Begley' Jr. does. I just don't have a TV show or the money. Catch my drift? Why not enable the common tax payer, like me, a chance to transition to a green life style with out making us go bankrupt? Where is government in this situation? Oh right... they're too busy giving banks and other failing institutions bailout money the taxpayer can use to go green.
This last presidential campaign gave a majority of Americans a man that saw America needed change. Yet, there hasn't been one step in the direction of alternative energies or better regulation on the food and healthcare industries. We'll just have to "hope" and see.
