If you want to see some real scary stuff, spend some time watching some of the video links provided by GordonGekkool on the stockhouse board. Fall of the Republic is a real eye opener. Over two hours long so pop some corn and make yourself comfortable. I believe it is a must see if for nothing more than to see how others think. There is also a link to a very good explanation as to how the present banking system functions and after watching it is apparent why the banks were so intent on lending money to people that couldn't pay it back. We are IMHO at a crucial time in our history and we must all wake up and pay attention.
