for example, if this film doesnt assert that current monetary policy was forced on us, just like mexico and most of the world, by international bankers, then right there u see why this film made it past the big $ media filters. the worlds power brokers, the ones that own our banks, corporations and hollywood, WANT us to believe that our constitution, political system, and politicians, are miserable failures and they want us to cry out for some kind of change.
a film can be very close to the truth and yet accomplish very little for those that would watch it and take action. just look at anything by michael moore. do americans need soviet health care? or do they need FAIR PAY? the mere fact that this film is surviving in the pop documentary segment of the market should be a big red flag.
but like i said, i'll hope for the best and watch it, critically.
I understand, but the film is trying to expose our "shadow debt" to the public, something that I've only heard mentioned a few times on cable news, but never talked about as a serious issue. This dwarfs the CAD, and as far as I'm concerned, our debt obligations are part of the CAD, as there seems to be no political will to cut back on our promises, despite being warned on a number of occasions by David Walker when he was the comptroller of the US.
As far as the Fed enslaving us through its monetary policy (whoever has the gold rules) with its fiat currency and more than questionable methods of establishment and being blatantly unconstitutional, it is another story. Complaining about mammoth debt does not necessarily = complaining about central banks, because that is what you are equating it as. The people behind this film may not be aware of the Fed's "true" history, and the flawed economic thought to win people over for it.
I understand with what you are saying about the problem being exposed, with people left wondering who to blame. If people had any common sense they would all cringe at the thought of "universal health care" and all that socialist bullshit, but yes you will have many people saying that socialism is clearly the answer. But that is not the films fault for people being that stupid. When the elephant in the room takes a giant diarrhea dump and it all hits the fan, they can't complain at all because they knew better.
We will always have retarded voters MJ. People who vote for someone solely because they think they are "strong" and can bring "change". It doesn't mean crap if they don't know what they are doing in such critical times. If I'm "strong" and "honest" and "hard working", and someone needs brain surgery but there is no brain surgeon around, why would the group want to elect me to do such a task, when I have no medical experience what soever?
But go watch it mr MJ and tell me how it is. You know my state is too small and insignificant to be concerned for screening this film.
